How do the new averages work?

Etheridge was VERY weak, can't blame Monarch's for dropping him! It's a professional sport, riders are signed to score points!

If you look at Leicesters EL ave's: LEICESTER 1 Kim Nilsson (6.88) 2 Kevin Wolbert (4.80) 3 Kacper Gomolski (5.51) 4 Josh Auty (4.90) 5 Eric Riss (4.11) 6 Andzejs Lebedevs (4.50) 7 Danny Ayres (2.17) Total 32.87!

As Danyon Hume rode 3 home & 3 away matches for Ipswich last year, will he get a new average after 1 home & 1 away this year?

BELLE VUE / COVENTRY ? 1 Dan Bewley 8.65 2 Lee Payne 8.11 3 Rob Shuttleworth 6.60 4 Jack Smith 6.32 5 Andy Mellish 3.21 6 Ben Basford 3.09 7 Kyle Bickley 3.00 Total (38.98)

Of the completed teams i think Mildenhall are the strongest! Obviously Jenkins won't stay at reserve - but so what, they may end up with 4 strong heat leaders in a weaker league than last year!

I think Stoke have got a good team this year. A top 3 who can score decent points home and away, while the others can all chip in with a few points too!

How do Lynn fans think Troy Batchelor will go this year? I think he has an important role as 3rd heat leader behind a strong top 2!

How do you know BV will be a tough team? They haven't signed any riders yet!

BELLE VUE ? 1 Max Fricke 9.91 2 Matej Kus 7.64 3 Justin Sedgmen 7.60 4 Rory Schlein 7.17 5 Dimitri Berge 6.91 6 Eric Riss 6.85 7 Dan Bewley 3.90 Total 49.98 Forgot a second Brit! BELLE VUE ? 1 Craig Cook 9.83 2 Steve Worrall 8.47 3 Rory Schlein 7.17 4 Dimitri Berge 6.91 5 Eric Riss 6.85 6 Claus Vissing 6.80 7 Dan Bewley 3.90 Total 49.93

With 3.33 left, perhaps bring in Reece Downs (3.33) as far as i know he never retired?

I think Cradley have a very good team this year, should be up near the top of the league.

Which Riss? Which Riss? I agree that F.Lindgren should get nearer to his starting ave than K.Kasprzak! J P Blackburn not in Premiership! Agree with all your pics, excpet i'm not so sure about Huckenbeck?

However if at the end of 2017 Glasgow get promoted & Somerset get relegated, in 2018 both clubs will have the issues of no local derbies!

Why list their starting averages - because I wanted to really! Also shows who I think is better value on their averages!

Think Cupitt is a good signing on a 3.00 ave, interesting to see who will complete the team!

I made the exact same comment on twitter!

Jack Thomas had such a great debut season, should be interesting to see his improvement in 2017! Maybe his 5.83 ave increasing to 6.80?

That's exactly it, ranking in order of my personal opinion! Ps Douglas (7.18) is higer than Holder (7.16) - regardless, i didn't go by averages, just who i think would do better next year!

It's hard to know what to make of Wolves, they have one of the best heat leader trios but one of the weakest reserve pairings!

Gotta say Ben Wilson is a great signing at number 1!

The way things are looking can't see it being a strong Kent team!
