Edinburgh 2022

My point was, the argument against Sedgmen was that some clubs have riders that could "easily add 3 points to their average" so I'd argue, do these clubs have 7 riders who can put 3 points on their average? Clearly not! In that case if Monarchs can find a rider who can put 3 points on his average, can Sedgmen then be signed alongside him?

he’s mid 5, I can see him putting 2 points at least on it

Actually 6.03.    Adding three points would put him above the current CMA of Craig Cook, Bomber or Charles Wright -- and Scott Nicholls is 9.07.    Tom Brennan is a fine prospect, but pushing his average up by three is a step too far in 2022.   IMO.

Personally I don't think Sedgmen would put a lot on his ave, but could up it a little. So unless someone can name a rider on a lower ave, who will score more, I'm curious why people are against signing him?

We’ve been there. He was poor when he came back previously. It looks like he’s not got the fire in his belly like he did back in 2014/15.

On his day Sedgmen can really race and he'd have an 8 point average if his head was screwed on properly but sadly it isn't. In his last meeting for the Tigers he was on for a five race maximum but got excluded in heat 15. He looked really focused that day but the following days saw him kicked from the team and replaced by Brennan. Worth a shot on his average I think.

His average must be low if all his Eastbourne scores are wiped out.

I doubt this will happen, as logically the scores of all riders who rode against Eastbourne in 2021 should also be erased.

I believe this was queried after Eastbourne withdrew, re adjusting GSAs for all riders scores in matches against Eastbourne, and was not acted upon by the BSPL.
