You guys have home-court advantage, which I reckon counts for a lot. I've never foot-down as much as I did on Tuesday. I can see why you lot wheelie-turn so much - it's easy to wash out the front wheel at low speed. And I've got so used to playing on really high barriers which just prop you up as you brush against them, it's weird not have that there...
Getting my excuses in early.
If your aim is to win this thing, then a draft will actually be worse for less-experienced players, as they'll hardly get any court time while their big boy teammates hog the court trying to get results. A solid 'b' team would be able to give more people more time on court, even if they don't place so high.
And I'd like to see a non-London team win something.
