Personally I feel it would be very unfair if he didn’t get the reduction. Yep.... so another 'new rule' falls again at the first hurdle. I think the sport needs a new '10 year' plan! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bailey is 3.00 and the points limit is 42.5, then no. That septet with the averages I've previously used adds up to 42.66. Wouldn't Bailey be eligible for a 25% reduction though? Bringing the limit below 42.50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I feel it would be very unfair if he didn’t get the reduction. Isn’t it those that were/are on the rising star list rather than those that were actually used as rising Star? Kemp was on it but not used as the rising star, similar with Danyon Hume. Hume was on the rising star list but Ipswich opted for Rowe as rising star and Hume as the number 8. Although it’s another grey area as Hume took over Rowe’s position as the rising star in the team, whereas Kemp didn’t ride in the position.

Bringing the limit below 42.50 He never attained an average, as he never rode. His Championship GSA is 4.63 (rolling) or 5.11(whole season) so which one would be converted and what is the conversion rate for a Championship rider joining a Premiership team these days? He is listed on Belle Vue's declared GSA's as 3.00, 25% off that is 2.4 but the minimum average is 2.5! If Bailey is 2.5 then that septet would just fit under a 42.5 limit with the averages I have been using. Fricke instead of Kurtz would also fit.

So do the #8's (whether they rode or not) who were also RS's get 25%? Elementary as that won’t happen, lesson learnt from this season is surely at least one strong reserve capable of pushing into the 1 - 5 is required Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Wolves 5th rider in the averages was probably the strongest 5th rider in the averages in 2022. Which makes it more difficult. I do think there is more to come from Kemp also, possibly more than Flint. But it's as if he needs Eureka moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCookie Posted November 4, 2022 Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 Flint seems a bit more aggressive and willing to take risks whereas Kemp seems to prefer being a bit safer. I'd say Flint looks ahead of him by a distance personally. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregoryM Posted November 8, 2022 Report Share Posted November 8, 2022 I wonder if the Aces will ask for an away fixture to be scheduled for Monday 19th June 2023 to avoid clashing with an International Football match being played in Manchester on the same night? It's at Old Trafford, one of England's Euros24 qualifiers: England v. North Macedonia. Haven't seen why this isn't at Wembley, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
