Zabel -> Trainer
Bos -> Sprinter
Renshaw -> Leadout Man
Would be a nice trio
Didn't Renshaw go to Rabobank so he didn't have to do a lead out and could race for hinself?

A strong contender to be HighRoad's heir as most boring team in the WT. The problem for GE is that I doubt they'll be as successful as Stapleton's guys.

GREENEDGE are going to be a force to be reckoned with next season, a lot of victories lie ahead for this team
but also TEAM SKY have put together a rather strong team as well, so i expect to see them at the fore front of many races too |

Wow that GreenEDGE team is really boring.. I can already say i dont like them.
EDIT: And also i think its a pretty weak team. Not worth a ProTeam license imo, but UCI doesnt agree i think

I think Goss is the only rider I might see winning 5+ stages.
I have some doubts that Davis can find his form again to win some races.
And expect of Albasini and Weening it`s pretty much just about sprinting and time trials. |

How many wins did those sprinters (or "sprinters", if you disgard Goss) have in World Tour races in 2011? |

Can we stop capitalising the edge in GreenEdge. It feels too similar to the retarded policy of Leotard-Truck from last season

Seven. If you disregard Goss then it's 4, half of them in the TDU and none of them won by sprinters.

I want to see Robbie McEwen Go out on a high note this year, maybe this team will set up something special for him at the tour down under and/or the TDF  |

GreenEdge being WT is perfect for Sky and Cavendish - theyre a team who will almost always help in targeting a sprint finish.

McEwen plans to retire before the TDF, and I expect GreenEdge will want to win the TDU, which kinda rules out focusing on McEwen.
Maybe they could fix the crit before the TDU for McEwen?

well they would focus on Allan Davis then for the overall win but i think his form worry's some people.  |

Next year will be a benchmark to see what the team's goals are and where they are at.
Hopefully, at the end of next year they sign some more climber-type riders, Weening just seems like the odd one out in the team.
