Nope, it'd be 7.10. Over last 20 matches, excluding any 2021 meetings against Eastbourne.

Whoever is wanting money for the use of the name "Comets" is really trying it on...... But I'm assured there will be no charge whatsoever for the name "Comics" (and then we can all call them Comets, anyway)

That's an innovative and positive step. Hopefully one that will allow a degree of financial stability for the Brummies.

After discount, Danyon Hume is 4.89, Connor Bailey is 4.17

Hàrdly. For instance, while Heeps is on 5.05, Jye Etheridge will be a stàrting reserve at Berwick on 5.35.

Look on the bright side. It might go above 4.00!

You wont get Congreve's CMA any lower than 4.00, l'm sorry to tell you.

Sorry to tell you that three of your averages are 'way out. These seven (after discounts) amount to 42.11.

Always better to stay in the black ink. The Berwick operation ended 2021 on the credit side of the ledger, and while we all want to track the best-possible team in each of the three leagues the club ràces in, the overàll budget does have to be observed.

Its really quite simple. If a rider has raced in a match for or against Eastbourne in 2021, these points and meetings are wiped out. As rolling averages are calculated over a rider's last 20 matches, to ascertain a true CMA you just need to go back and add older matches back in, to give you the rolling average over twenty meetings, to compensate for the 'loss' of the Eastborne matches. Simples!

It only fits if (a) Connor Bailey is allowed the GB discount, and (b) the total is rounded down to 42.00 as it is fractionally above, if taken to the third decimal place. But l dont think that's your team, anyway!

Why not Fridays? No restriction for an NDL circuit..........

If Dany isnt to be stuck in Austria by their current lockdown, and there are no visa difficulties after Brexit, re-signing Berwick's current highest pointscorer, on a very acceptable average (5.94) is an absolute no-brainer, IMO. Can beat the best (almost every week) at Shielfield and, as Normski points out, performed significantly better on away tracks last season than previously.

Close. Drew Kemp is on 3.67 -- with discount, that's 3.58.

The words "tapped" and "up" do come to mind........

That's more or less the case.

Add in Isle of Wight, who will surely be regretting their principled stance of a year ago by now......?

Actually 9.11. Higher than Scott!

Nice try. Sam is actually 9.41, Kye 5.46. Your figure of 8.34 for Joshie is correct. I suspect folk are forgetting to add the two meetings at the beginning of the rolling averages back in, when deducting Eastbourne results....

Or once Poole are in the NDL?

Nope, never said anything of the kind. But its true that two young Aussies, maybe from towns thousands of miles apart and even if they've never met before arriving here, are more likely to bond than (say) a German with a French lad, or a Swede with a Dane. Australians do tend to stick together over here.

Dany correct at 5.94, but Tommy J is actually 7.10. So still wouldn't fit!

Shouldn't this thread be transferred to the Championship pages?

As highlighted by CatchMe, Ricky Wells will report on a CMA of 6.59. Giving Bandits 12.75 to play with for two remaining riders.

Since everyone is remembering my first posts here, l would plead guilty, and remind them of this one, too!
