4. Brennan 5.71
5. Kurtz 8.24
6. Hellstrom-Bangs 4.00

Bit under the limit 38.56
 

Berge for Bangs

Lidsey for Blodorn

That'll be the team imo.

Blodorn probably won't be back then if Brennan doesn't get his 25% off considering Lidsey will surely get the nod over him right?

I've been impressed with Blodorn whenever he's ridden the Showground so I'll gladly take him at Peterborough.

Berge and Brennan do they not?

I've been told that at the AGM its been vetoed that rising star riders get a 25% deduction that was rumoured If they are kept within the club once not being eligible, as only really Belle Vue would benefit as Brennan is a class above, so the other clubs out-voted the Aces to stop them seeking an advantage so the Belle Vue side I have seen on here may need rethinking as Brennan should come in at 5.71

Only fair imo.

Can't give everyone else 25% off and not Brennan. Has to be the whole lot or none at all in the event of fairness imo.

25% off last seasons average if they were a rising star? Now that makes sense Panthers offering Hume a deal.

Hope not.

Any team that goes with a weak No.6 partnered with a RS is toast imo. Wolves 2022 proved that it doesn't work.

Why would Hume be a weak no.6, especially when not injured?

He's not strong enough to be a main reserve in the top league against a much tougher pool of riders. 

Danyon's stats in the top league away from Foxhall in 2022 aren't good either (3.18 Inc BP) (3.06 Exc BP) 

Wolves made the mistake this year by going with two unestablished riders in the top league at reserve thinking they could bring Championship form to the table and it backfired drastically. 

If we went with Hume & Jenkins for example then we're asking for trouble before a wheel has turned especially when you take into account other teams line-ups that will see riders like Jakobsen, Berge, Kerr and co. at reserve.

You sure you ain't going with Hume and Jenkins? As it seems the Panthers have offered him a place

If we do then we're toast. Nobody else will have to worry about the wooden spoon. :D

1-5 would be irrelevant as we'd just get mullered at reserve almost every week. 

If Chris Louis is prepared to let him go then that tells you everything you need to know about how Chris view's Hume as a No.6 in the Premiership too.

Ipswich may have Kemp and Heeps?? Wouldn't even even bother putting the bread in the toaster

Sorry for going off topic Belle Vue fans. I'll give you your thread back after this post :t:

Only chance of Hume being at Peterborough is if he's on the RS list. 

Danyon's 2022 Premiership stats tell you everything that you need to know. Only way Danyon even gets a job in the Prem is by being on the RS list or by Chris Louis remaining loyal to him.

Very disappointed if that's the case, one good rule brought in to help improving British riders, short handedly gotten rid of as it doesn't help other promoters to win!

I think Danyon Hume would find it very hard to get a spot without the 25% reduction.

Makes the RS system pointless if a rider improves then gets dropped once he's no longer a RS! Surely the whole point of the RS system is to bring riders on to fill other spots in the team!

Hume may be one of the if not the weakest number 6 in the league, but I'd say he's being signed so the top 5 is stronger not to strengthen the reserve berth!

I still think he's better than some make out, for example his Champ ave is 1 point above Mountain's who many seem to rate!
