SOMERSET CALLING

  Edinburgh Monarchs

After an incredible fight back by the Scotwaste Monarchs at Berwick that saw them just miss out on picking up some league points the team move onto Somerset on Wednesday for another league match.

It is, perhaps, the Scotwaste Monarchs greatest test of the season so far. The Rebels regularly score sixty points at home and last Friday scored 72 against Rye House. They are a strength in depth team with both reserves capable of scoring double figures.

After the horror crash at Berwick on Tuesday night , Aaron Fox will not be fit to take his place. He was not detained in hospital but with ashore shoulder and sore head he has been advised not to ride for seven days. Coming in to replace him at the Oak Tree Arena will be Nathan Greaves. Other than that the Scotwaste Monarchs will be at full strength.

The other rider involved in the big Berwick crash, Matthew Wethers, was due to be released from hospital on Wednesday morning, on crutches and very sore, but with no broken bones.
