I get that, it doesn't make much sense to me. Should have just been 4,3,2 and 1 on the averages.
Bates and Brennan will be the best by far, then Bacon, Kemp, and Pailin/Kinsley afterwards.
I'd rather seeing Palin improve and benefit from a season in the top flight, who's young and could make it far in the sport. Bacon might make a reserve in the top division but otherwise can he really improve.....
