SCB Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) The only issue I see with doing it this way is that I full expect the Bees team to be Bjerre, King, Garrity, Bjerre, Kerr, Bates and Sarj by the end of the season. So while that will drop Bjerre and Bates from their easy #1 positions to about 3 and 4 it'll see Sarj go from 8th to 1st and then King and Garrity move up a few places. Obviously other teams will be the same. Then you have the bias of who meet who not being the same. Your number 1 for example meets the opposition number 1 3 times so if yours is better that's a possibly 6 point swing. Same with your number 7s but other riders only meet once or twice. From a statistical POV this doesn't work at all. But it's certainly interesting. Also utterly amazed you have Sarj rated so low and Clegg so high. What the hell has Clegg ever achieved? PL reserve while Sarj has spent about a dozen meeting in his whole career as a second string. Sarj has also ridden as a second string in last years EL unlike Clegg. Few other weeks choices but I accept that's part of the fun/interest with these things. Lasse Bjerre seems to have been massively under rated by you based in last season form coming back from injury at a club he was not happy at.

stevebrum Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 What the hell has Clegg ever achieved? British Under 19 champion and National league riders champion 2016. What has Sarj won? Sarj is better at this stage of his career given that he is 4 years older he should be! Progress has been slow for him the last 2 seasons although I quite like him. Except his constant jumps at the start! What heat format is being used next season? The previous one that's still used be the old PL/championship and NL.

keef robin Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 (edited) No way Swindon will finish that low, never have done never will do with Rosco in charge. Somerset Cov Lions bottom 3. Rye House look the strongest. Such a weak league, just have one big league in 2018 Edited February 12, 2017 by beefy keefy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Fricke should stick two fingers up to the Polish rules and see if his Polish team has the guts to drop him. Doubt they will.Because it makes sense to risk your most lucrative contract? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lasse Bjerre seems to have been massively under rated by you based in last season form coming back from injury at a club he was not happy at. I was going to mention Sarj being far too low, considering he was a 2nd string in the PL and occasionally EL last year. I know it's about opinions but statistically he's better than that probably 5th? Edited February 13, 2017 by woz01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
