You should only be allowed an NL rider ,not a guest up to the average of the reserve,if the lowest average reserve is missing this is the case! So why change the rule for other reserve is what I an saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So why change the rule for other reserve is what I an saying. Why should any team be penalised with an nl rider if they have lost a high scoring reserve? If a reserve has a 5.5 average, they should be allowed a rider up to that figure. Only fair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuxtonTiger 122 Posted October 2, 2018 So Doyle has a good look round, moves out and let's Harris through. Should Doyle be fined and banned? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They pulled a fast one bringing Howorth, what you say to that Poole fan.... Somerset were more than entitled to bring in Howarth and was completely legit. No fast one pulled mate.

Daniel Smith 5,661 Posted October 2, 2018 One way to build a team with strength in depth. No R/R in future and if a rider gets injured the guest has to have an average the same or lower than the lowest averaged rider in the team. Every other rider moves up a position. If 2 or more rider's injured then it's the same as above plus guest with the same or less average than 5th in the averages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Scrutton 180 Posted October 2, 2018 Poole will win the Final if they pick better riders to guest for the ones they are replacing as they did against Somerset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sherborne Green 320 Posted October 2, 2018 I have looked back at recent matches between the two teams at Poole. In the past two matches Summers has scored 2 points in each match and BWD 5 in each match. Therefore it does not seem that Somerset lost out with a guest nor with r/r. Before anyone goes on about another Poole fan I would state in this match I was neutral as I have been a fan of both clubs for years living half way between them. I admit I liked it better when they were not in the same league however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
