Good to see some positivity after a 16 point win… I thought our 1-7 all rode well for their first home meeting of the season. We’ve also scored 40+ and Poole and Berwick whilst chucking some points away, think the boys deserve some credit. I do agree that it was brilliant to see some competitive racing again at the dale.

Ref was poor for both sides. Etheridge decision was bonkers and Josh impeded himself when he jumped but he also let Schlein and Hume away with moving at the tapes. Good effort from the Monarchs although we can’t rely on Josh scoring like that all season. Kye and Sedgy will need to step up and Lasse needs to improve. Good to see Paco starting to find some consistency and showing what he’s capable of.

Delighted with that 1-7, reckon there will be improvement in all of the boys and we should hopefully be challenging at the top end of the table. Great effort

Uninspiring way to finish the team when we had over 5 points to use. Will support the boys but can’t see this team competing.

Great signing for Berwick. Absolute madness from Edinburgh not to bring him back after investing in him last season.

Lasse’s form after injury was extremely worrying, wouldn’t surprise me to see his average to drop to 4.00 again. Bastian has a lot more potential imo

Has to be a new 5.00 rider for me

Correct, 2.5% discount is 0.075 which means his average should be 2.93 when rounded. An average of 2.92 would mean a 2.66% discount Manipulated to suit.

Made that point yesterday, can’t believe that there hasn’t been more said on it. They’re over the limit as far as I’m concerned.

Personally, I disagree and think that’s it’s just been manipulated to suit. The final issue of averages shows 3.00 regardless if that is 2.995 or 3.004 before it’s rounded. The GB reduction is applied for team building purposes at the start of a new season, therefore the final issued average is what should be used before reduction. Edit: in addition, Ablitts average is exactly 3.00 when calculated so should never be rounded to 2.92

Read that… bonkers if true.

Would be happy with Riss but don’t think he will be in UK next season. Would rather we went with Bastian and a new 5.00 than Lasse and Thomas. Makes no sense to bring Bastian over this season then not use him next season.

Needs to seriously sort out his away form, was unacceptable last season. Should be fine as a number 3 in a weaker league

Great signing. Very impressed with Scott’s words, you can tell he’s highly motivated and the riders will enjoy working with him.

Good signing, especially on his average.
