That was his converted average that he joined Northampton on this year.   Converted from his Championship average. He only rode 5 meetings for Northampton, so hasn't got a 2026 Premiership average. So his 2027 Premiership average should be his Championship average divided by 1.50 which gives the 3.69 that @Daniel Smith has calculated.

That was 2025 Championship conversion to which he hadn't achieved an official Premiership average. So his new assessed average should be his 2026 Championship average converted again no?? Which is 3.69??

Because he knows he can get away with it and every time he plays that card he knows the plebs will feel sorry for him. There was only so many times the boy could cry wolf. 

Mitch is 3.44 as per last declaration so the team fits

Chech your additions.   That comes to 37.02, so over the limit. Have Northampton made a mistake in their signings?  

A shame, but I suppose it helps keep Speedway going...
