ProudtobeaBrummie 646 Posted March 21, 2017 My prediction to what order in averages they finish the season.. Shanes ayres graverson perks zack waj jack smith Bailey Greaves. I would be amazed if all 8 finished off in this league .. When you consider only ayres has scored a few points outside the NL so far in there careers it may be a season too early for a few of these.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SomersetBlue 212 Posted March 21, 2017 Graversen purely because of his experience in the top tier. Wajtknecht Bailey Ayers Smith Shanes Perks Greaves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted March 21, 2017 Smith will do well just because he's so good at the NSS. But most do the 2 pointers will struggle to beat anyone other than the other 2 pointers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CookieIpswich 249 Posted March 22, 2017 Not good for their development at all only being in theory most likely to beat the opposite number 7. Maybe Premiership should have had a team building points limit of 54 with the lowest average rider not being able to fall below 4.5 meaning proper youngsters would have to work through the championship, could that of ever worked? 1. Chris Holder 12.53 2. Kyle Newman 6.31 3. Danny King 9.57 4. Lewis Kerr 5.98 5. Robert Lambert 8.92 6. Kai Huckenbeck 5.24 7. Josh Bates 4.89 Would this not give the premiership a stronger league and litter the championship with young talent? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 862 Posted March 22, 2017 What a competition this is. Who can be in the most heats when more competent riders fail to complete 4 laps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,819 Posted March 22, 2017 I think Shanes may suffer from having no other regular racing. Very odd that he doesn't have a CL and / or NL place. Compare that to Bailey and Smith who will be racing for three teams and may develop faster as a result, although of course burn out is also a risk. Graversen ought to make hay initially although having had a year out won't help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonny the spud 2,281 Posted March 22, 2017 James has lots of grasstrack lined up I believe, this will help keep him sharp but will also rattle Matt Ford's nerves a little. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Najjer 2,898 Posted March 22, 2017 It's funny that the signing of Graversen was mocked initially, but people are now saying he's likely to be the best no.7 in the league. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,819 Posted March 22, 2017 Doubt he will be by the end of the season but to begin with experience alone should make him the strongest. Anyway you know what the BSF is like for knee jerk reactions and people judging riders and line ups too soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ray c 2,299 Posted March 22, 2017 Not enough racing for James shanes i think he also needs national league as well . Danny ayres to finish highest. Just my opinion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sings4Speedway 3,249 Posted March 22, 2017 Graversen AyresSmithBaileyShanes PerksWajtknecht Greaves However as the reserves are no longer protected most will only get 3 rides a meeting and be swapped out of heat 8 in favour of their stronger reserve partner. The sport as its nature is sink or swim so there may be some who suffer a confidence drop but if 2 or 3 make it then i would call it a success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
