Maybe in the old EL,you would probably have to multiply that figure by 1.4 to come in line with the average changes.Or maybe he would come in on a 7 which i think is what it would have been for the old PL.
Will Swindon go with 3 high averaged riders in their team,then when the averages change they may have dropped 6-7 points between them.They could then drop a 3 pointer for a 10 pointer.Thats if the rules on re-declarations are the same.
Last season you kept harping on about how good Ellis is and how close he is to being as good as R.Lambert.So should Lambert get a reduction on his 8.76 average,because clearly it would be wrecking the career of a fine British prospect.I don't think you would want to see that would you,unless he was to ride for Poole of course.
As the topic is best teams you can build here goes.
Woffinden 9.83
Lambert 8.76
Bjerre 8.22
Batchelor 7.36
Porsing 6.58
Klindt 5.42
Sissis/Williamson/Ayres
From their teams last season yes.But they too wont be able to get their exact 1-7 from 2016 into their sides for 2017.So they to will be weaker for 2017.
Think a 7.5 average would be fine for Ellis,considering the likes of Jacobs 5.36,Wright 6.59,Starke 6.62,Rose 5.86 would come in on the stated averages.He is better than those mentioned and he isn't quite as good as S.Worrall 8.51,Lambert 8.76.
Good point regarding Doyle,he will lose 1.5pts or more off his average pretty much straight away.So if the team starts off poor with Doyle in it you could see a re-declaration as soon as allowed.
They can't stop riders earning money,but they can easily drop him from the team.And if put in this situation i am sure he would pick Poland instead of England.
If that isn't a fake average then,they should have all current EL riders who have done the season in the PL on their PL averages as they too won't be fake.
Looking at his statement he said he felt that strong about it that is why he pulled out.Would he have said or done the same had the unfortunate Doyle been riding,simple answer no.
