Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted November 30, 2017 Your team totals 40.18 pts leaving a massive 2.18 to use, why use a rider with a 4.68 ave when we could use someone up to 7. L Bjerre 6.10...Paddy H 6.09... KK 6.86...... R Lawson (who also flies round the NSS 6.43 ) I recon Auty is certainly better than Lawson around Belle Vue and myself am not keen on Hougaard or Bjerre.

TheOpinion 16 Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) I would take KK for sure. Still a quality rider, on an average he can definitely improve on. He's done well around the NSS before too. I still say this team is good...CookKingKasprzakTungateFrickeBewleySmithKing flies around our track too. Cook, Fricke, Tungate and Bewley are no brainers. Or perhaps... Cook Kasprzak Przedpelski Palm Toft Fricke Bewley Smith Getting two Poles in, plus MPT is fairly popular around BV after a good season with us a few years back, and has been pretty great a few times when he's visited the new place too. I still find it hard to imagine them letting Tungate go though, given how good his home form was this year. Edited December 1, 2017 by TheOpinion 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,820 Posted December 1, 2017 KK has a history of letting his clubs down Not for me Sacked by Coventry (twice), Poole, Lakeside, Birmingham. The ultimate let down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bald Bloke 3,282 Posted December 2, 2017 (edited) TheOpinion, your first team is awesome, in my opinion. Agree.Not sure on if it fits,but if it does :t:Could see King and/or MPT at Lynn in 2018 I think.. Edited December 2, 2017 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 854 Posted December 3, 2017 Sadly, Jack Smith won't be in a team that wins the title, unless there is seriously improvement on his part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted December 3, 2017 Sadly, Jack Smith won't be in a team that wins the title, unless there is seriously improvement on his part.Why? What u hope when u build a team is that riders can maintain or improve their average. He fits that category. He only needs to take 3 rides, so having a low averages number 7 is the optimal team building strategy. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,634 Posted December 3, 2017 ....as long as the opposing team isn't built with two 4 or 5 point reserves!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC2 11,150 Posted December 3, 2017 ....as long as the opposing team isn't built with two 4 or 5 point reserves!! Leicester and Somerset had 4/5 point reserves this season and look where it got them. It’s doubtful that many more teams would choose such reserves. Regardless, Smith rode against them this season and achieved 1.7 so with that experience he should achieve 2 next season.

EnglishRoundabout 1,752 Posted December 3, 2017 Sacked by Coventry (twice), Poole, Lakeside, Birmingham. The ultimate let down. He also let Belle Vue down when it really mattered. Only a matter of time before he screws Rye over if they retain him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouch 1,191 Posted December 3, 2017 (edited) ....as long as the opposing team isn't built with two 4 or 5 point reserves!!If you have 4 & 5 point riders at reserve with the top rider taking one of the lower reserves rides you get, if they rider to their average 9.25 (6.25 + 3) If you have 2 & 7 point riders at reserve with the top rider taking one of the lower reserves rides you get, if they rider to their average 10.25 (8.75+ 1.50) I dont think clubs would spend 9 points at reserve but whatever the figures the maths show a two pointer is the way to go.
