arnieg Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 On 9/11/2023 at 10:21 AM, NeilWatson said: Once again, astute use of the rule book - that still doesn’t make it a false average. Expand I think it depends on what you mean by 'false'. Realistically Tarasenko was squeezed between Brady Kurtz and Tobi Musialak in the 2021 Polish averages (he didn't ride in 2022 due to still being Russian). That would make 7.00 an appropriate Premiership assessment and with a realistic conversion factor of 1.3 (as opposed to the absurd 1.5) he would be on 9.00 in the Championship. That would be a fair assessment. So to the extent 5 is less than 9 (it is, I've checked) it is a false average. Is 5.00 correct within the rules? Yes, and is therefore a true assessment and not a false one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinderfella Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Getting away from Tarasenko I think a lot will depend on who is or isn't available on Wed. If both Heeps and Vissing miss the meeting then with r/r in place I'd say Glasgow may have the advantage. However the key could be if Ace Pjiper rides at reserve or not for The Tigers. If not could be see some more astute management (by The Promotion not the manager) and Luke Kileen booked as a guest? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vote against it and you might need the rule later in the season You do realise if Glasgow win the league, we will have months of 'debating' his average or what it should be. So for everyone's sanity better hope Oxford or Poole win Expand Only one team gonna win the league Lisa, C'MON THE PIRATES I've already written the script with Ben Cook taking the lead role & Joe Thompson best supporting role!

How can you have the same rider assessed at the same average for both leagues . Expand Because everyone agreed that would be the rule. Therefore, they agreed that was the correct rule. Fine to change it by agreement, and it makes a lot of sense, but they decided that's how it would be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted September 11, 2023 Report Share Posted September 11, 2023 Very clever and astute by the Glasgow promotion. Its within the rules so expect it to be tweaked at the AGM. Matt Ford would be both annoyed and proud! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Glasgow did a Matt Ford move, they learned from the best, granted Tarasenko strengthened Glasgow, however we are still very weak at reserve and have a habit of capitulating in important meetings 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Vissing this season scored 1+1 from 4 rides, well off the pace. 6+1 from 4 for Birmingham last year. If I were Glasgow, I would not be telling him to rush back that's for sure. Tarasenko n Brennan with 2 reserves rides looks better to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasnt been good for Sheffield though so I am sure they are happy with guests. The other thing to consider is will Vissing be as good coming back from injury.
