Sings4Speedway 3,246 Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) With the points limit reduced, many riders improving their averages last season and team places filling up fast which riders from last years 1-7's are likely to miss out on a starting place in the NL this year? Below is a rough list of riders who achieved an average over 3.00, have not indicated retirement/year out/riding higher league only; **rumoured but not confirmed signings Tony Atkin Danny Phillips Darryl Ritchings Jack Smith** Dan Bewley** Lee Payne Rob Shuttleworth Tom Woolley Andy Mellish Kyle Hughes Luke Priest Lee Dicken David Wallinger Mitchell Davey Liam Carr ineligable NL Ryan Terry-Daley Connor Dwyer** Jamie Halder James Purchase Ben Basford Bradley Andrews** Jack Kingston Ellis Perks Gary Cottham Luke Harris** Ben Hopwood** Nathan Stoneman** Kelsey Dugard** James Shanes Dave Mason Brendan Johnson - Retired Josh Bailey Scott Campos Shane Hazelden S Beebee Shaun Tedham Paul Burnett Chris Hay Edited December 22, 2016 by Sings4Kings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hunters 210 Posted December 20, 2016 Not many , your list has 36 and there are still 45 places, a few will not fit averages probably but most will still be there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True although 14ish of those places are at reserve and will be filled by 3 pointers from this season but not on the list or rookies. Some riders will move on to do higher leagues only which is great to see Perks for example but there will be a few established NL names who are casualties. That said i think its a positive thing as i would much rather see competition for places than the issues faced last winter where there were not enough riders to go round so early indications say the 39 point limit is a positive move.
