tombeej Posted July 2, 2014 Share Interesting, I am still considering wither I will participate in the league this year or not. Sadly, I haven't had time to really follow the season this year so I have to say I am not up to speed. If I do it will be a team based purely on riders I like to support, 'Berto, Scarponi, Valverde, Bennati, Nibali, Voekler to name a few, Froome, Cavendish, the Schlecks, Horner or a few other good racers wont be there, not because I dont think they are capable, I simply dont support them. I see supporting teams or riders (or any sportsman / woman) as a sort of investment in my time and knowledge, and, I only invest in people I am comfortable with supporting, irrespective of their possible potential or pedigree, I find it difficult to support any athlete I may not like, even if they are the best, and that includes supporting them in a fantasy league. Come on Grumps, get in the mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottCM Posted July 3, 2014 Share Do you guys think with OGE not having Goss or a recognised sprinter in the team that Gerrans would be able so save himself for sprints on hilly stages and compete against SAGAN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon Michael Matthews might contest for green Gerro's role - unsure Probably individual stage wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
