Neither do we , building to 38 points was always going to be detrimental on team strength.

I look at Oxford team and they have come in at under 37. Kye, Paco, Josh and Lasse were all out for a period of time through injury / illness last season. Hopefully they can get dialled in at the Dale early doors.

Interesting that some would be disappointed using a 4.57 Fredriksen when they have 5.27 left, but others would take a 4.00 Borke.

Lasse’s form after injury was extremely worrying, wouldn’t surprise me to see his average to drop to 4.00 again. Bastian has a lot more potential imo

I agree Borke has potential to improve, but I wouldn't have built the team 1.27 below the limit. Say if using Borke, then choose Jack Smith over Max James for example?

Would also pick Gilkes over Fredriksen or Borke.

Original plan was to have Clegg at reserve on what should be an average of around two and a half however as we’d be benefiting and the other clubs who are in charge aren’t. So they have kept him out of a team place and kept his average at over 4.

I can't agree with that argument, Clegg has a 4+ rolling ave under the rules, can't see how anyone can complain when the BSPL follows the rules!

AGAIN..The powers that did it to him last year as well until RG needed him then dropped him again when kemp came available..change rules to suit them at the time.the sport is ruined.and you are correct about Edinburgh he signed the contract then dropped him by text Xmas eve…thought Campbell were better than that tbh,just as bad as the rest of the little man’s club…

But they haven’t they haven’t cause they’ve twisted it so he stays on his current average instead of below 3.

It's his rolling average, like stormy it's probably messed up because his Newcastle scores been removed but that's what it was on bspl website all winter..where Edinburgh invented the sub 3 average from is anyone's guess

Jack Smith talks a good game ,but doesn’t produce on track IMO.How long has he been about and around Clubs.Star in NDL though.

How is it Rob Godfrey is to blame for Max Clegg having a legitimate average 

some people are deluded

How have BSPL twisted it? He appeared on 2023 Final green sheets as 4.21 so with 2.5% reduction he's due to start on 4.10.

Don't see how Edinburgh could think he would be on anything else. They could still use him on that average then if his average falls upgrade when riders like Gilkes or Rowe find their not getting enough meetings and are looking for a team, like Drew Kemp last year.
