Still a NL reserve, even if you argue his average would put him at second string in half if the teams, riding at second string would cause his average to drop!

But if Glasgow want to use him & Brennan wants to leave, who can afford to buy his contract?

The problem with dropping Brennan now, is after a riding at number 5, if he goes elsewhere as a 3rd HL he should then raise that average considerably. Glasgow need to keep him to benefit from leaving him at 5, especially as they never used Basso in the harder position - leaving him on a high average!

I know they lost (a lot of) money last year, but don't think they'll be able to increase their crowds at this price!

Charging adults £20 each (in a weaker league) must be the way to afford it?

Connor Bailey's average makes no sense as he hasn't ridden any Premiership averages? Anyway as far as I'm aware, the minimum ave was & still is 3.00

Harris had a 9.66 / 8.64 split which is fair. His away average is much the same as his starting ave, so in a weaker league shouldn't drop it at all. Basso may find it harder to retain his ave, riding at 1 or 5, but as he's an improving youngster on the up, think he'll be fine as a heat leader.

If Wells wasn't retiring I'd say he's worth a shot on that average! Same as Heeps, did well when he rode for Monarchs.

Ricky Butcher was probably better than Ricky Wallace lol!

Hook has a better rolling ave (& 2022 ave) than James Pearson and it seems Birmingham fans are delighted to have Pearson back again. So Hook can't be THAT bad!

Cory Blackman was far better than Ricky Wallace

I agree, I feel Master's is a 10 point rider, but Morris is as you say on that ave due to the 10 match rolling ave (dropping lots of poor matches)

Just too long a tail for me!

I disagree, cause I'd expect them both to up their averages

Totally agree

Personally I think Kasprzak would be a good signing on a 6.86 ave, could only see that going up

Need a "rising star"

I agree Jorgensen is likely to drop 2 points off his average, but maybe Berwick couldn't find any other heat leaders?

Every other Brit shows their final ave, not including reduction, so it wouldn't make sense for Bickley to be listed as 2.93? I'm under the impression it's a mistake & he should be on a 3.00 ave.

Reading rumours of Masters & Kerr joining Oxford, but that would mean no Nicholls & I'd expect he was a certainty to return?

2.00 is the minimum for Brits. 3.00 is the minimum once a Brit has averaged above 3.00, so that should be Bickley's ave not 2.93

Starke would fit instead of Morley

I can't imagine Glasgow would let Brennan go. Think Nick Morris has an average well above his ability, looks a quirk of the 10 match rolling aves rather than his true ability, as all his poor matches early season have been scrubbed from the stats!

Built to always have one strong reserve!

Edinburgh won the league in 2015 with 2 x 3.00 reserves (the minimum average then). Both (Clegg & Branford) only finished with about 3.5 averages & stayed at reserve all year! Even if one of the top 5 had an off night, still got 4 potential double figure scorers in the team!
