So they are not sure why I thought they were league 1 for some reason. So yes would be a 6.00.
I think they were supposed to be league 1, but they were relegated down to the bottom league when Rawicz were refused their licence for 2024 and they decided to to restructure the leagues.

You cant ride under protest re a team line up
The protest has to be made in the days before hand and the decision is then final
Thats a bit difficult when the team that cause the protest don't mention the issue until the day of the meeting though?

Think its all down to the individual battles between opposite numbers. (Winner in bold)
S. Worrall vs R. Wells (Think it will be close but Stevie will just edge it)
J. Allen vs M. Ruml (First time visit for MR i think so Allen should score more, but Max may like Scunny and keep it close)
J. Auty vs M. Riss (Again very close but Auty is always good around his home track and has that HL experience)
S. Neilsen vs J. Andersson (Don't think Andersson will take all 4 programmed rides unless he happens to take to Scunny.)
J. Garrity vs E. Riss (Riss to win this battle comfortably. Garrity will throw a fall in somewhere and Erik has started well.)
D. Phillips vs M. Williamson (Matt looked quick at Glasgow last week and looks like a steal on that average. Id expect Phillips to struggle on previous times ive seen him.)
G. Manzares vs J. Pickering (Depends if Gino can ride like he did last time he was here and which JP turns up.)
Overall i think it will be a close battle, which the scorpions should just edge.
Scorpions 48
Monarchs 42.

Looking forward to heading through for this. Hopefully our new guys hit the ground running and we keep it tight, though I don't think that will be the case.
Glasgow 51-39 Edinburgh is my prediction.
-
So going on the riders signed, I'm guessing we will line up intially as follows:
1. Ricky Wells
2. Max Ruml
3. Mark Riss
4. Joel Andersson
5. Erik Riss
6. Josh Pickering
7. Matt Williamson
Would also expect Erik to be named captain going by last season when Sam was missing, with Ricky getting the nod should ER be unavailable for any reason.

5 guys under 5.68, that can't be the way to go, can it?
Some very different team building tactics, it'll be interesting to see which one ends up being the best.
5 guys under 5.80 worked in 2014....

So if this is the case. how was Haertel given his average? His PL one would be 3.84 x 1.3 =5? Where the 3.85 come from?
As Andersson is a 5.2, that means any other u21 finalist should be the same....unless they havent represented their country in a SWC Final... then it should be less. ....
Maybe the question we should be asking Is whether Haertel is definitely a 5.00, or have we all just assumed this due to previous rules?
The Ipswich press release about him signing doesn't mention an average as far as i can see, and with the witches having 0.30 left (assuming MH is a 5.00) then its possible that he is maybe also on a 5.20?

Can only think of 2 for Edinburgh in THJ and cookie next year
I'm sure Max Fricke will be counted soon
-
1. Ricky Wells (8.85)
2. JUSTIN SEDGMEN (6.17)
3. THOMAS JORGENSEN (7.10)
4. Mark Riss (5.68)
5. Erik Riss (8.05)
6. Josh Pickering (4.62)
7. ANY 2.00 RIDER (SHUTTLEWORTH?)I'd take that!
-
Would an American come in on a 5 point ave
They would come under "Category 2 - Riders not riding in a professional league (Ie Denmark, Poland and Sweden)" so I don't see why not.
Fox and Manzares were both 5.00 when they came over in recent times.

Edinburgh
1. Ricky Wells (8.85)
2. LUKE BECKER (5.00)
3. JUSTIN SEDGMEN (6.16)
4. Mark Riss (5.68)
5. Eric Riss (8.05)
6. Josh Pickering (4.62)
7. ROB BRANFORD (3.94) / JACOB BUKHAVE (4.00)
Total: 42.30 / 42.36If we replaced BECKER with someone 4.91 or under (ASHLEY MORRIS 4.88 or MATT WILLIAMSON 4.85 for example) then THEO PIJPER (4.23) would slot in nicely at #7.

Never understood their train of thinking for our No7 first it was Chessel who pulled out 27 yrs old, then Blacklock 27 yrs old then Paine 30 yrs old, all had been in the NL for 10 to 15 yrs and gone nowhere, so why in hells name sign them. I am sure the rule was made to bring on under 21s, it should have been made clear by the BSPA this was their intention, as usual never any clarity from them
Payne only started speedway around 2013 or 1014, so only had 2/3 years NL experience before stepping up to ride for Redcar in the 2016 season.
-
Is that the confirmed signings?
Nope
-
I would think these would be unrealistic, but hey its silly season haha!
1. Sam Masters (8.57)
2. Mason Campton (5.73)
3. Ludvig Lindgren (7.21)
4. Mark Riss (5.68)
5. Thomas Jorgensen (7.10)
6. Josh Pickering (4.62)
7. James Sarjeant (3.33)
TOTAL: 42.24
Could also replace Campton and Lindgren with Sedgeman and Palm Toft and i think it will fit.

Wolbert now needs a victim club for 2017 to drop 2 points from his average and confirm his return to the Dale the following season.
Just the two points?
