He is your man 

The guy you are talking about would be a 4.00. Good 2 page spread on him in this weeks Speedway Star..

But what are the rules. I know Zischke got a 5 when he rode 6/7 meetings in 2022 but do you jump from 4 to 5 if say you only rode 1 meeting ??. MCD only went over to POL on a short stay and joined a training camp with Wroclaw who then loaned him to Falubaz who tried him in  4 matches and signed him on a 2 year deal before he went back to Aussie. If he had ridden 1 meeting would he still have been upped to 5 ?? That's what I'm not clear on as to how many meetings can you ride to avoid being a 5 instead of a 4. Not that we are signing him but would be good to know what the rules are in that respect.

Depends on experience and average in other leagues . If he hasn't ridden competetively in a league at all then 4.

If he rode in the POL U24 Lge it will be normally a 5. Just like Zische did even though he only did 6/7 meetings 2 seasons ago.
