Also what if the Craig Cook / track staff incident has happened this year? Could Cook ask to get the fine he paid back as the match "didn't happen"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are right. At the time I read somewhere, it may have been in the Star, that the averages were to remain unchanged as the process would have been too complicated to unravel. They must have had a change of heart subsequently as a final set of averages was produced 22nd November 2018. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
