Not missing the point at all. I agree with SCB's post.
PL averages should not have been used - BUT THEY WERE - and we have to get on with it. My point was whether PL or a %EL figure was used, I do not see how that gives Poole any greater advantage in their Tier 2 choice, having selected Ellis on 3 points?!
Yes a better way imo would have been to use a % of their EL averages for the Tier 1 riders - but then you would have various posters complaining that the % should have been different!!
