IMO he should be on the team.
That team is pretty hard to figure out though. Especially the MX2 rider.
Maybe they should put Anstie to MX2. Deano MX1 and Searle/Simpson Open (both are injured right now, so not sure how good they will be at the next GPs).

I think chamberlain is hoping to bring some young talent through the ranks for the mxon. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw either mewse or Watson in there. Apparently there could be issue with funding Wilson to get over unless husky put some help forward. We will see but my guess would be searle, anstie and watson. Hopefully tommy will come back strong, he has so much speed on a 250 when on form!

It's one thing focussing on the future, but you shouldn't do it at the expense of the present. None of Searle, Simpson, Wilson, Anstie are 30 yet. Anstie and Wilson aren't even close. I like the idea of having the likes of Ben and Mewse around the team before the event, but we have 4 guys who are all still well in their prime and are world class. I really like Ben and Mewse, I know Ben a little bit and he's a great kid and he's improving massively, but none if those guys are ready to replace Anstie, Tommy, Wilson or Simpson yet. I don't think we will have any issues when it comes to Wilson, he is on a factory team so he will be able to ride one of the GP factory Husky teams bikes.

To me the team should and probably will be Anstie, Tommy, Wilson.

'It's one thing focussing on the future, but you shouldn't do it at the expense of the present.'

Especially when the MXdN is being hosted in GB. We have to select our strongest team to give us the best chance of doing well in front of a home crowd.

Searle was selected in 2006 at the tender age of 16 because he finished 8th overall in MX2, amongst a particularly strong field of riders. Watson is currently our highest ranking MX2 rider, and he's down in 15th in a lightweight class by comparison.

I too like the idea of having the younger guys around to learn from the experience though.

I think Covington is almost at the stage where the USA could consider picking him, he just doesn't quite have the consistency. Something always seems to happen in one of the moto's, but I think he's proven himself to be one of the fastest in the class and his track knowledge would be good for the USA. Having said that, Osborne is absolutely brilliant this year and he also has experience of Matterley
