Getting a bit side tracked here, best Aussie team ever was was the 1988 Des nations team.
Glen Bell Honda CR125, Craig Dack Yamaha YZ250 and the legend himself Jeff Leisk Honda CR500.
Any one got any pics ??

Too easy Ali..
Its the 1986 des nations team.
No 4 is Dave Armstrong,No 5 Craig Dack and No 6 is Glen Bell.
The Hondas were semi-factory bikes from the local sponsored GP riders while Bellys was his own of course.

My heart says Ferris, Metty, Reed but my head says Ferris, Metty & Waters. Todd had a blinder at Lommel last year and Chad can barely make the top 10 this year.

Sand was last year, no sand this year.
Reed finished 13th last weekend much the same all season and Metcalfe was 7th. I think Waters and Ferris will be around Metcalfes pace.
