Guessing Lidsey will end up as third heat leader, or that is at least the hope. Does Lidsey start at reserve? Don't know anything about Jake Mulford. Does that mean Kemp & Rowe have no premiership place in 2023?

Yes, the year the Brummies were decimated by injuries - Legault, Roynon the two that spring to mind - I said if Roynon manages to gate in front of Lyons once (they were paired at 3 & 4) he'd take a second off the track record he was that quick. Such a shame.

Full team announcement next Monday (12/12).

If Morris can stay injury free he will make a mockery of that average, probably capable of 6.5-7 including crucial points when it matters. Shame it didn't go well at Perry Barr for him last season, he's local & clearly cares for the club Good luck Ash.

Kings Lynn are certainly nothing if not patient!

Would say Bears have advantage in top 2 & at reserve but Cheetah's have a more solid engine room! But similar teams in terms of construction. What do I know, I only saw two Championship fixtures last year!

In fairness... I was including a TS win for one of them Haven't seen Cheetah's line-up.

The team seems a bit top heavy to me, but the three heat leaders should get the Bears to 35 points at every away track, depends what the other 4 can pick up.

Oh yes, didn't spot him there..

3.18 I believe. Complin & Dan Thompson would leave 5.74 for final rider.

5.22. 5.09 for Team building.

Poole have announced nothing other than Danny King is leaving.

14.01 is what I make Brummies have left team building wise after the 4 announced signings. Jack Smith listed as 2.90 on BSPA site (under Newcastle) which with 2.5% Brit reduction makes his team building average 2.83.

Wells only averaged about 5.5 for Berwick, shocking really. Heard it was to be his last season before (Speedway) retirement.

WTF? The post I quoted clearly stated Ashley Morris. The social media posts have said Nick Morris & Justin Sedgeman will spearhead the Brummies in 2023. So I would suggest that they're the Brummies heat leaders in 2023. Where is the confusion?

Why? Didn't see much of him in 2022 but always gave his all & scored crucial points in 2021 when required. Just needed to cut out the odd fall. A Brummies social media post said Morris & Sedgeman will spearhead the team, so I wouldn't expect a rider to be signed with a higher average than Sedgeman. Lee Complin? Hasn't he retired for the fifth time yet? He's not a rider likely to improve his average much these days.

I don't think it does, a fair few riders came to speedway in their 20's from motocross and never competed the NL/CL. They get the 2.5%, the fact that Schlein has represented Australia at the SWC would mean he is not eligible for Team GB which is surely the reason why riders get 2.5% off their average.

Batchelor didn't ride in either of the Premiership Pairs meetings I attended, I'm sure it was King at EoESg and Riss at the NSS. I would have attended the PP meeting at Owlerton, but....

7.14 was Schlein's end of 2021 GSA according to the BSPA history archive so should be that.

Ah, unranked - not enough meetings to get a regular average. If he does as well as Basso, Witches fans will be happy!

Finding a average for Rew on Sportowefakty took some doing, 2nd in the U24 Ekstraliga averages which doesn't really give much away

Don't know much about Rew - only seen him once at Torun in the SGP2. But looked a worthwhile punt on 4.00 average which is what i assume he will start on? Who did he ride for in Poland?

Didn't think Harris wanted a weekend track.

Eh? Zagar 7.2ish, Brennan anywhere between 4.8-5.6 (depending on % reduction). Very unlikely to be a choice of one or the other.

Why? He was riding at reserve for the Tigers in 2022 season.
