Poole 2017


Recommended Posts

When did Milik last ride here 2015? It would be similar to Tai and the debate about his average so don't see the need for it to change.

the difference would be that this year starting averages are based on 2nd tier strength.

 

So old EL x 1.4 should be applied where there is no 2016 2nd tier figure to use.

Tai technically only missed one complete season which would be the same as Milik so i agree. But he still needs to be subjected to the 1.4 conversion so would be 7.94.

5.67 X 1.4 = 7.94

The danger with any temporary replacement from the start of the season is what will happen after the first set of revised averages?!

 

If, say Milik on 7.94 does reasonably well but still drops below Brady's 7.65 with the first new averages then it would be difficult to bring Brady back in wouldn't it?!

Milik is better than Brady so hardly the end of the world if you get "stuck" with him.

I presume after the first averages there would be a revised conversion of say 1.25 for new riders? In which case I would be amazed if kurtz wasn't a lower average than what Milik achieves.

Yes that is what I meant. As he rode less than two years ago he shouldnt have his average reassessed just x 1.4 his actual average. Edited by woz01

Can Milik actually replace Brady as he has a higher average - are Poole 0.29 under the limit for team building?

Milik last year was very impressive a great signing if Poole get him certain favourites for the title.

Im very sure Matt will give Brady a fair crack of the whip to get fit..

And Brady is going to feel really wanted if he reads this thread!! Give the guy a chance he's only young! (this is not aimed at you Skidder obv ;) )

Its not about giving the guy a chance its about opinions on wether certain riders are the best riders to have in the team.

Poole have a decent top 2 but either Jack Holder or Kurtz will have to step up to become that third heat leader. Personally if Milik was that third heat leader that would look stronger so some Poole fans are rightly concerned over Kurtz. Thats not to say either Brady or Jack cant step up but that position has to be of some concern.

There will be nothing wrong with the 2 second strings which will be Newman and one of the other 2. Poole will have the best 2 and 4 in the league and should cover for the possible weaknesses of Pooles top 3.
