We followed the rules. The rules will say Dan’s on an average of about 12, or more. By all means sign him though! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 2013, Edinburgh didn't sign their third heat-leader until after the BenFund meeting, a week before they opened - - and still made it to the Grand Final! He was called Claus Vissing, as l recall.... I'm sure Edinburgh had planned to use Sam Masters, was there a late visa issue? This led to the last minute signing of Vissing. Fans aren't so used to that happening now, hence the worry / panic by some Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

topaz325 1,861 Posted February 2 (edited) Will Worky sign a rider on maybe a 4.5-5.0 average on a possible short term deal and then maybe make team changes if necessary . Edited February 2 by topaz325 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree on logic, but remember Ht 15 scores will skew a team's averages a little. 42 isn't a true team total. The gradual month-on-month upping of team averages will help teams who feel a need to make changes, but having a low starting-point each season will keep team-building costs down. Which is a good thing. Edited February 2 by crescent girl 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
