Ulrich at reserve wouldn't be too bad Ruff!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Instead of Ulrich is the only really logical one, but no thanks, especially only after 2 meetings!! Plus Ash is still injured for a while by the sounds of it Would DEFINITELY have him back for 2020 though I wanna know who this exciting rider who's going to be at Sheffield Roy mentioned will be... Been a really frustrating season for Ash. I would think he would be on an attractive average next season. Would love to see him back with the diamonds next season. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Won’t happen now as Thomas Jorgensen seems to be fit but hazarding a guess I think a certain Edinburgh rider would of been in the frame 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fortythirtyeight 841 Posted July 27, 2019 Some dissapoiting averages there. Bjerre was considered to be a no.1 a few seasons ago, now a second string, same with Østergaard. Add a rider who hasn't achieved a 2 point average in three seasons the team is out performing its average so proves statistics mean little. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add a rider who hasn't achieved a 2 point average in three seasons the team is out performing its average so proves statistics mean little. In all cases, with the exception of Thomas Jorgensen the GSA's are adversely affected by the 'rolling average' syndrome. Thomas is the only one who is riding below par. Taking this years averages alone, the other six are all averaging more this season than those figures above. Granted Danny is on the minimum 2.00 whereas his actual average is 1.74 for this year, given it was less than 1.00 last year it's still an improvement. As a team our GSA for this year's figures alone is 42.56. Max is actually averaging over 6.00 and Matty over 7.00 (Matty is over 8.00 when you include bonus points). Losing either of those to injury would be devastating. "Add a rider who hasn't achieved a 2 point average in three seasons". Not exactly true. This year yes (but he's getting there), last year yes. 2017, He didn't get an official greensheet average as he suffered a season ending leg injury after only 4 matches (2H, 2A) so was still assessed at 2.00 at the time. His actual GSA (without bonus points) was 4.5. His average for all matches that year including challenges & KOC [which weren't included in official GSA]) was 5.00 Edited July 28, 2019 by leander 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is a tad early but I'd add Steve, Tero and Ashley to that list too... Fill in the blanks with an exciting number 5 (Richie maybe?) and a Luke Ruddick, Nathan Stoneman type at reserve... Would do me (First we need to know we are running next year!!) 1. Steve 2. Tero 3. Ashley 4. Matty 5. 6. Max 7. Love to have Danny Ayres in the team too...
