Surprised there's as much dislike of Roynon. Fair enough he's not a natural, but he's decent value. The main issue for me is a lead commentator who loves to take digs at fans who don't tow the party line, despite those same fans paying his wages.

Who is the lead commentator?

That would purely be a romantic signing. The ability at this level just isn't there sadly IMO.

I disagree, he has the ability to be a 3.00 - 3.50 Champ rider, (4.00 in a lower league) which is better than a 2.00 rider, not everyone makes it into the team.

I'd keep both... Lasse and 2 and Borke at 6. Both would do decent jobs as second strings and take up barely any points in the process... Edinburgh's team for next season seems a difficult one, as heatleader options seem limited. Unless Craig Cook comes back, but that would be a massive risk. If they can bring in say Riss and Sedgmen at the 3 and 5 and get someone like Steve Worrall or Richie Worrall (if he's allowed to ride) as number 1 then the top 5 don't look too bad.

1. Steve Worrall 7.84

2. Lasse Fredriksen 4.57

3. Justin Sedgmen 7.69

4. 4.89? Alfie Bowtell, Danyon Hume, James Pearson, Jacob Hook

5. Erik Riss 7.35

6. Bastian Borke 4.00

7. 2.00-2.89 depending on which number 4 you pick (Connor Coles?)

It's a bit harsh leaving out Paco, but where does he fit?

I think Howarth is on a 7.77 (?) average. He would be a far better fit than Sedgman who ended the season looking like an NDL rider.

A lot of riders ride below their best at the end of the season in order to lower their average.....

Perhaps he shouldn't have been trying to lower his average whilst guesting for Edinburgh in the play-offs then.

But as the season consists of 16 matches qualifying for GSAs which ars last 20 matches they would have to be below their best all season (excluding play-offs, KOC,BSN)
