AWSOME! When you open your mouth to often, you usually catch a bug!

Herlings would run 8th thru 12th here. Not much chance of a top 5, maybe a coulple of motos out of 24! He would get his ass handed to him in SX! Probably would'nt make it through the series healthy!

Considering he was pretty much the same speed as roczen last year, saying he would barely make the top 10 is a joke. You're essentially saying someone like Jake Canada would have beaten villopoto if he got the same start as Herlings got at the mxdn last year.

I don't think he would be good at sx though. Only the french seem to make that transition well (with the odd exception)

I'm not a Herlings fan either but Pocock announced this shit on his twitter couple of days ago! If they would do that to me I would be angry too and I would say the same shit too!! On the other hand what happened in the paddock isn't correct, fighting is weak!

Now he lost respect with allot of folks!
He lost his friendship with his ex brother in law Arnaud Tonus
He lost his relationship with C. Tonus
He got a big fine from the FIM for bad behavior on Live TV!

Yeah he didn't had a great weekend besides he won! Also someone who did allot for him in the past said on his facebook that if he wants to complete his dreams he really need to change his entourage and his attitude.

Herlings is the polar opposite to roczen, i mean it's hard not to like Kenny but Herlings just does so many dick moves, at least it's fun to watch. I would love to see barcia track him down at lommel (big ask I know) and just punt him, not to hurt him just to give him a reality check.

Roczen had his number all of last year. I don't think Herlings would run top 5 consistantly here. just my opinion. I like Tommy Searle but he was not able to compete in the US for wins. Why do you think Herlings could? Get a grip!!

Pocock jokingly tweeted about Herlings one week ago just after Herlings had cleaned his team mate out.

Pocock was not even scheduled to race the GP then and was not drafted in till Friday just gone.

Pocock got a verbal 'warning' . Herlings got a maximum fine and is there more to come now?.

Herlings cleaned Pocock out earlier in the year but no action was taken against him.

Herlings went back to the pits and got into a fight with his girlfriends Father (Arnaud Tonus's dad) and Arnaud.

Herlings ended up in the medical centre

Herlings girlfriend broke up with him

That is awesome. I trust it went something like this:

"So, you're kind of a dick and my old man just beat you up so I'm going to have to break up with you since your balls havent' dropped.

Sounds like Herlings finally got what he had coming to him. I will never again question the existence of a higher power.

Herlings went to dad Tonus to ask why he was laughing about the thing Pocock did. It ended up in a verbal fight and Herlings said something to him like 'whatever, I'm still fucking your daughter'. That's when Arnaud and his dad went mad and went after him and beat him up. It not right but I can't help laughing about this shit. :-)

What?
In 2009 Searle's finished 3rd OVA three times outdoors, RedBud, Highpoint and Lakewood.
A 4th at Glen Helen, 6th Washougal, 7th Unadilla.

2010 SX Series 7th at A1, 8th in Phoenix then got hurt.
Then going into the 2010 outdoor's he got hurt again and struggled to ride through the injury and had to call it quits and heal up. Searles also got a 2nd in the first moto at Hangtown

A healthy Searle's has no problems running top 5's in America.
Jeffery Herlings would have no problem doing so either.
I am no Herlings fan either.

We'll never know untill he'd actually goes to the US. Fact is that Herlings is still only 17 years old and getting faster every year. last year he beat Roczen on several occassions, also on hardpack tracks so I think he would be able to do pretty good in the nationals. Not saying he would win because Bagett, Barcia and Tomac are pretty damn fast at the moment, but a few podiums should be possible

Another thing is that he's blistering fast in the sand. So don't be suprised if he is gonna beat some serious ass in Lommel at the MXoN. That is - next to his plan to become MX2 worldchampion - his big goal for this year.
After that he will probably stay in the GP's for at least another year. With Searle, Roelants, Van Horebeek being to old and moving up to MX1 and Osborne going back to the states KTM wants him to stay in MX2. He'll still only be 18 years by then, he has enough time.

Hmm. Herlings shows up, maybe we have to dust off the ol' J-Law and give Herlings a lesson on how to do it right.

Thankyou.

Its so refreshing to see an American recognise Searle's decent record in the US.

Searle did just fine, especially when you consider who he was lining up against. He finished ahead of Rattray in their first season together and look how Rattray was able to push on the following year! Searle would have done the same had it not been for that silly slow corner tip over during practice at A2 which ruined his shoulder and wrecked his 2010 season.

I'm sure after seeing Musquin's and Roczen's results, he'll stay in the GP's.
Marvin has been injured constantly and is now a top 5 rider and will soon be a podium battler without doubt, let's not forget he was in surgery a few weeks ago, again - and what's wrong with Roczen's results exactly? He is beating 37/38 of the best the USA has to offer - he is new to the championship, different format, new tracks, different weather - give the lad a bloody chance FFS.

And Herlings is still only 17 I believe - let's not get carried away with the fact that Ken beat him previously - he is a lot bigger and stronger than he was, and faster too I might add.

Herlings is actually a bit of a loon on and off the bike, he really doesn't mind getting aggressive and a having a bit of bim bam thankyou mam, I think if Barcia approaches him in the sand with roughness in mind he will get his arse handed to him - with ease.

the move on tonus in the last GP was pure shite and he deserves what he gets back IMO - that's not taking anything away from him as a rider though, I must admit I was praying all weekend for Tommy or somebody to shunt him off tracck properly and with some real gusto just to show him how it feels - it may happen from someone at some stage who knows.

It's not about being quiet. We are all viewers from the "sideline" with our own look at the story. Maybe going quiet is the best thing you can do! After 7 GP's, still 9 to remain the Championship will be between Herlings and Searle as expected.

No matter what will happen, you'll have haters and lovers anyway! The best thing for Herlings to do, is to be quiet to, and let the results speak for themselves!

Herlings is winning the GP coming weekend in Belgium, Bastogne 100%!

Apparently Villopoto will be a guest spectator this weekend in Bastogne, which I think is pretty cool!
