Berwick Bandits skipper Kevin Doolan believes the new-look line-up can do well next season.

The popular Australian is pleased with the close season team building by the club’s new owners.

And he said: “We have the right balance of experience and youth. Importantly, they are guys who are hungry to race.”

He added: “The new promotion have stepped in to build on a lot of hard work put in last season and take things forward.

“I want to try and get everyone settled in and bring out the best in everyone because, if we get everyone riding to their potential, I think we can do really well.

“We know we have a track that we can race on. It can deal with weather and there will be dirt on it.

“Hopefully, we’ll see some good results so we’re at the right end of the table.”

Here he is being interviewed by the team last year:
