Think Brennan will be only change in top 5 unfortunately (replacing Rowe), needed a bigger broom to clear out a few who have no value with their average especially with poor away number 

Well that has come a shock, and a late change....Brennan on that average is a steal for somebody. Am i right in saying.....And don't shoot me if i'm wrong....But have Ipswich Kept Danny King over Tobi Musielak, or have i read that wrong. The 7 was done by all accounts, but as iv'e said so many times, we are all guessing. But i would think some of the Prem sides (Well that's 6 of them) will start doing some announcing in next few days. But if the King thing is correct, and people are saying that's a good move, then im sorry but i must be missing something with King on that average.

Pickering a possibility?

Strange as it may seem, the End of season party is about 2026!! It'll give him the chance to explain the full extent of his spinal injuries - not all of which were initially diagnosed - but did explain why he was in so much pain when trying to race the bike. I hope that's a deep enough dive for you, whether he returns or not!!

Whilst it makes perfect sense that the lowest two averaged riders fill the reserve positions at 6 & 7 I have never been a fan of the highest averaged rider being forced to race at number 1. I understand they are the teams top rider but sometimes riders don't like to take the first race or they prefer to race with one rider over another. Sometimes a team may benefit from having their best rider at 3 missing Ht1 & Ht13. it should be the clubs choice to race their team in the order they prefer as long as the bottom two are reserves.

What, in detail, does your deep dive show? Firsts, seconds, thirds, last and against what level of opposition? Any big scalps? Many losses to riders that he should be beating? Was it all u-24 league or were some meetings against higher grade riders?
