After seeing Jason Edwards a few times last season at Edinburgh and the U21 final at Berwick in 2020 i'd say that he's more than capable of upping his average to 5 points this season. Definitely one for the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think easy to underestimate how badly injured Jordan Stewart was in that crash at PB it was horiffic not unlike the one Mitchell Davey had. Maybe a year in some Aussie sun may be the best healer. Edwards is an excellent prospect as good as any of the current crop. The respective Team Managers at Eastbourne and Plymouth last season probably wanted short term fixes and overruled their Owners at the time. Edwards improved a lot once he got substantial NDL track time at Mildenhall. He's one for the future and Redcar have 2 excellent and improving reserves with him and Jenkins. A nicely balanced side. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slyfox 97 Posted December 12, 2021 18 hours ago, szkocjasid said: On paper looks a good team, 3 good heat leaders. Two second strings who can up their averages. With 2 promising young Brits at reserve. By my maths the teams adds up to 40.37, if that's correct it's a surprise they've decided to go 1.6 under the limit! My math's (which are not so good) get the team much closer to the limit. Wright 8.28 Roynon 5.08 Andersen 5.87 Kerr 7.67 Riss 7.84 Total 34.74 Leaving only 7.26 for the 2 reserves who were both rising stars last year, so its more difficulty to find their averages. Think I have seen Jordan Jenkins at 3.52. Leaving only 3.74 for Jason Edwards and I would have thought his average would be about the same as Jordan's. Think the team should perform well both at home and away. Adam needs to at least ride to his average to ensure he stays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rising star scheme doesn't exist in the Championship next season so it's way too risky going with two youngsters who are still inconsistent and lack experience. Have to agree, When it comes to the play offs you need at least one reserve capable of hitting double figures especially if taking extra rides . For me to come in nearly 1.5 pts under limit leaves us weak .Also think Roynons average is over inflated as most of decent scores were when he was at reserve. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was a 2* rising star for Eastbourne, not a rising star at Plymouth, then did a lot of guest appearances after he did not have a team. So which meetings do they use for his average All? Eastbourne? Plymouth? or a mixture? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Using these figures http://www.gbspeedway.com/2021/ridercareer.php?mc1=x&mc2=a&mc3=av&mc4=x&name=Jason Edwards I reckon his 9 Plymouth matches plus the 9 Eastbourne matches from 2019, making 40 points from 57 rides to give 2.81 (2.74 after British discount) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
