    A very premature thread, but I need to have a good think about who is going to be in Team Sky’s TdF for work so good opportunity to do my job for me and put some predictions out there for the full 9 (or maybe 8) man squad.

    Prize if anyone gets it bang on (message me in June) I think

    Wig
    Froome
    EBH
    Bernie/Thomas (can’t pick)
    Knees
    Rogers
    Porte
    Henao
    Uran

    Nope, Vaughter’s has to take his orders from the one general and chief who oversee’s universal cycling. A sort of Alien vs Pro’s vs Dopers.

    The name of that individual would be Mehdi Sohrabi

    Meaning Uran, Henao, Cataldo & Stannard will support Wiggins at the Giro.
    Uran, Henao, JTL and Dombrowski to race Vuelta.

    I’m disappointed in you, I thought you would have at least looked at the transfers and been able to see the Flecha is off to Vacansoleil-DCM next season…… :O

    I’m pretty sure Flecha will be next to leave, whether he doped or not remains to be seen.

    I think that Swift is really underrated, and that he should have been in the Olympics team.

    There will be less domination than this year, as Contador and the Chemical brothers will field ACTUAL teams of ACTUAL cyclists this year…

    Also, expect a challenge from Garmin.

    Going to depend I suspect but
    Going to depend I suspect but I imagine (if Wiggo is genuinely going for the Giro):

    Froome
    Wiggo
    EBH
    G
    Porte
    Rogers (subject to doping reverlations)
    Kiriyenka
    Bernie
    Uran

    No need for Knees if Wiggo isn’t leading the team as he’s partly there to give Brad his bike in case of emergency

    VERY premature, but I’m in

    Froome
    Cataldo
    Lopez
    Dombrowski
    JTL
    Henao
    Uran
    Eisel (on retainer from OPQS to drop back and help Cav 😉 )
    EBH

    Wiggo as first reserve depending on how he comes through the Giro as that’s his stated aim for 2013
