A 2022 average of above 5 isn't too bad is it? Put 1 and a half points on his starting average... he'd be knocking on the door of being a heat leader at some clubs!

His starting average was low for a reason. You’re  definitely clutching at straws, any club with ambition would have binned him off long ago.

He’s still crap when he’s riding regular 

That's harsh personally think the gap between the championship and NDL is to big riders like the Thompsons Mcgurk's Palin Kelly Bickley  should be protected at reserve until 21 or 22 allowing them to develop no point having riders and crucifying them and them leaving the sport when we already have a rider shortage

Unfortunately it’s survival of the best, you need to ride against better riders to get better. Too many riders fool themselves into thinking they are good when they stay at that level. Dan Thompson is holding his own in the championship In the main body. Joe can’t score at reserve so again you can’t compare the two. Palin is fine, Bickley has lost his way, can’t see Kelly or the Mcgurks ever making it. You just know when someone has got it

How do you explain the fact that he's put 1.5 points on his average this year if he's so "crap"? Are there many other riders that have improved so much this season?

I don’t need to explain that to you if you are intelligent enough to work it out yourself!  Look at his away average not the combined.  Also I did say his average was low to begin with. Joe is a one track pony Sadly and a average one at that. Not sure why you need to underline in bold FACT. It doesn’t make you any more relevant

Well averages must lie then?? And he doesn't get beat many times in nl at home does he?

Wow, look at his away average it doesn’t lie. Look how many points he’s scored away in the last 7 meeting. I’m talking championship here not Micky mouse NL.
