Speedway: Sedgmen Eager To Link Up With Doyle
New Swindon Robins signing Justin Sedgmen has heaped praise on fellow new appointment Jason Doyle, as he looks forward to the 2016 campaign with Alun Rossiter's side.
Both Sedgmen and Doyle were announced as Robins riders for next season earlier in the week.
Returning to the club he was given his Elite League bow by back in 2010, Sedgmen rejoins the Robins' ranks a much more adept rider, according to boss Alun Rossiter.
Sedgmen was announced as a reserve rider along with Charles Wright, just days before the big news dropped that Aussie rider Jason Doyle was to join the club as number one rider for the coming campaign.
The Australian champion will join up with Sedgmen and Wright, along with recent addition Stefen Nielsen.
Doyle's arrival has coincided with Sedgmen's Elite League return, something the 23-year-old was particularly excited about.
Sedgmen said: "Jason has been outstanding in the last couple of seasons, and last year I think he was the rider that everyone was talking about.
“He is someone I think all riders can look to as a benchmark of what can be achieved by working very hard to get to the top.
“To think only a few seasons ago he was racing for Somerset in the Premier League, and now look at where he is in his career. A top performer in both the Grand Prixs and World Cups, Aussie Champion and one of the top guys throughout the European Leagues," Sedgmen added.
The former Edinburgh rider is convinced his fellow Australian is the man to push on the Robins and make them a real driving force next season.
“I’m delighted he has decided to come back to Swindon. He is an excellent number one and I think it gives us a good spearhead at the top end of our team," Sedgmen said.
