Ace is a Glasgow asset, and I wonder if we might be thinking double Pijper at reserve, with wee brother Steyn, that might swing the deal. 

Assets are thing of the past from what I’ve heard.

Apologies just noticed the replies confirming this.

Would you want Ace Pijper if he started in the top 5, not reserve?

Chris Harris (8.90)
Kyle Howarth (7.92)
Leon Flint (6.95)
Nick Morris (6.86)
Ace Pijper (4.04)
Freddy Hodder (2.63)
Jack Smith (2.61)

I quite like it! 

That's a decent top 4.

I'd prefer Ace at No6 if possible, I don't think that bottom three would score much away from home. 

My thinking, rightly or wrongly, is Ace at No6 and almost having a sacrificial No7 who can chip in 4ish points at home and 2ish points away.

If Ace is at 6, won't have such a strong top 4 obviously. Btw I wouldn't call a rider who can score 4 at home & 2 away a "sacrificial no 7" that sounds like a valuable member of the team.

Aye, fair enough, I know you got my gist.

As I've said earlier, this is a team I'd like, though I'd be a bit sad for the teams that lost some of these riders... but here's a 7 I like anyhow.

Chris Harris (9.13)
Jody Scott (3.92)
Leon Flint (7.13)
Tate Zischke (5.76)
Kyle Howarth (8.12)
Sam Hagon (3.57)
Jordy Loftus (2.19)

Total: 39.82 (but will be lower with 2.5% reductions, which I couldn't be bothered to calculate as this team is below 40 anyway).
