barrow boy Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 I see that some people are once again questioning Poole's right to sign a rider on a lower average that would seem to be correct because the rider in question Sam Masters is deemed not to have ridden in sufficient matches in 2011 for his season ending BPL GSRA of 7.52 to be used as a converted BEL average of 4.53. How many matches does a rider need to do in a season for his true average to be applied. According to Somerset's individual riders statistics chart he completed 32 matches which surely is sufficient for his 2011 average to be used and not his 2010 average as is being suggested. Is it therefore about time that new guidelines be adopted to clarify such instances in the future. Surely an average is an average no matter how many matches it relates to but is it not therefore much fairer to use 10 matches, 5 of which must be away ones. If after 10, less than 5 have been ridden away, then upon completion of his 5th away the average at that time is the one to be used if no further matches are ridden.
