Everybody talks about how other factory riders are not performing
up to what they should do.
What about Matt Moss at Suzuki? You dont hear much about him and he
was going to be top rider fighting for podiums. He is on a factory ride
and barely gets top 20 finishes. I know he was coming off a bad injury
at the beginning of the outdoors but we are a good ways into the series
and he is still not performing.
Is there something wrong with him or is it just his finishes are where
he is at right now?
And will DeCoster get rid of him at end of season?

Don't think he likes the 450.
Btw, as to "short" practices and "New Tracks"...that don't play at this level...not to the extent of how poorly he's doing.

f4ctry, you can not be serious surely!!!
I'm pretty sure I heard/read somewhere that after his back had healed he found out that he had broken a bone in his wrist and then had to wait for it to heal before riding. Or something along those lines.
Jake, maybe the odd top 10, but no way each and every race like you say.
Some Australian riders are closing the gap to the US guys but on a whole the Aussies still have a ways to go yet!
Matt looks great on the bike, he moves forward real fast for about 3 laps then his wrist gives him way to much pain to continue pushing,he would love to go back to a 250 as it would not hurt his wrist as much.
I've always liked Jake, he really goes for it when near the front. He's not scared to click it up a notch and ride on the ragged edge!
If he can't turn it around I'm sure he could just go back to AUS kill it on a 250f for a year, then give the US another shot
Believe me, when he's fit you will see a seriously talented rider,with a style very similar to RC making it look easy. Natural ability + Training
Yeah but Loose the problem is in the US there are already plenty of seriously talented riders. Unlike Australia where there are only 4 or 5 seriously talented riders.
In my opinion Matt is capable of maybe one great ride but not consistently great rides. The competition in America is just too damn fast and too damn widespread. And also, I think he needs to slow down to go faster. The guy crashes way too much!
