spin king junior Posted November 23, 2018 Report Share Posted November 23, 2018 Think they could've done with it being an hour later. 5pm I think would have suited people who do work Sundays. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As your man hasn't taken off your 2.5% reduction for Danny King that gives an additional 0.22 I reckon and I think his figure for Kyle is a bit high too by 0.10 but will stand corrected if I have my numbers wrong Regards THJ 1 Danny King 8.90 8.68 2 Kyle Howarth 7.02 6.85 3 Ty Proctor 6.96 6.96 4 Kasper Andersen 5.20 5.20 5 Broc Nichol 4.00 4.00 6 Zaine Kennedy 4.00 4.00 7 Drew Kemp 2.00 2.00 Total: 38.08 37.69 Remaining: 0.31 Going off what has been posted above how does that grab you, looks a potent team to me if it comes up trumps? I reckon that could be the team,and would be quite happy to go with that 7,dimi berge has been mentioned by a few and I for one would love to see him back at Sheffield but he has signed to ride in Poland,so I reckon we would be out of his plans more than him out of ours.

Absolutely agree - 4.00pm is neither one thing or the other. Too early for an evening match and too late for an afternoon match. Sunday tea is a special time in many families and taking dads away from 3.00 till 6.30 will ruin family time on Sundays and won't be popular with mums. We spend our weekends at Brid and I can't see my missus agreeing to have an early dinner and leave the caravan straight after in order to get back by 4.00 so I guess that's the end of over 50 years as a supporter. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes 5pm first race would be much better and keep to tight schedule so not late for young kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howarth is in a false average, and king will be consistent. A lot of question marks however, nicol, Anderson (as good as he looked briefly last year has a lot to prove) kemp is a good 2 pointer but there are others close who could do a job... kennedy - well there are exciting Aussies throughout the league, not many match their starting average in year one.... and procter...... well in simple terms no improvement, and anyone thinking he can be the same procter from years ago is mistaken...... no improvement.... i see 2 riders upping their average, Kemp and howarth (on a false average) think there are better opportunities than that to complete what could be a good team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the averages still roll over 20 meetings then the natural progression from 38 to 42 team total will not be seen at the first set of averages but gradually throughout the year By the end of the year every rider should increase by around 0.6 to in effect stand still at the same level they started Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive seen nothing to suggest it wont stay at 38 You suggestion of a gradual increase certainly has some merit though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelShoe Posted November 25, 2018 Report Share Posted November 25, 2018 (edited) Not quite sure how the 38 point team average is going to pan out going forward. It doesn't appear to make complete sense and could ulimately water down the very good product that has been the Championship in recent seasons. With 46 points needed to win a meeting then on the face of it there appears to be quite a disparity which will probably do nothing for the better riders willingness to increase their average beyond a certain point especially if they are on guaranteed start money because ulyimately they could be riding themselves out of a job.

The way the averages are made up they only total 42 points for each team if there is a draw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
