Gazc Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 REALLY? I'd love him to ride for us... Maybe he can be our big name next year after, presumably, Robert moves on... Scott and Steve as out top end, would suit me, might not be the very best top end, but it would be entertaining... Especially if we can build in Robbo and Ludvig into the team too... All four capable of great races... Although I'd feel that would leave us without Rose and 2 weak reserves again... Interesting times ahead for me, I just gotta hope the average limit goes up!! The average has to go up it cannot stay in it's diluted state that it is currently in , Ideally it should be a 45pt limit but 42.5 would at least mean the league isn't diminished anymore in terms of quality. Averages really should only be used for team positions and a rider draft should be used to build teams, the current system is prohibitive in building and keeping a team that any particular promotion would want.

It should be 45, if two teams face eachother, there are 90 points on the night up for grabs... split between the teams, it's 45, so the teams should be built to the limit where they are, on average, getting 45 points... 40 or 42.5 seems silly, when the teams were a 45 limit, the league was 100 times better than it is now... If they drop it any more, it'll be a huge mistake imo... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on 7 riders taking 4 rides each(up to & inc heat14, it shouldn't be lower than 42. But heat 15's points are still up for grabs and they still count towards the rider's averages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leander Posted August 18, 2017 Report Share Posted August 18, 2017 Exactly!! But heat 15's points are still up for grabs and they still count towards the rider's averages Well yes, sort of. If you've had four rides and scored 8 points your average is 8. If you get an extra ride in heat 15 and finish 2nd = 5 rides 10 points. Your average is still 8, and has no effect on team building. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
