Welcome to Poole, Dan!

Great signing and if he can stay injury free he will easily add a point to his average! I’m sure the signing everyone was expecting will be delayed until the week up to Xmas Day and delivered as a perfect Christmas pressie for Pirates. 

Troy batchelor will be a great Christmas present I agree

Think once a certain rider named agreed to come here next year and changed his mind about 4 weeks ago, the club had to move quickly to get Dan signed up, the deal has been done and dusted a few weeks I would think 😁

Was that named rider Beau Bailey

All this talk of Beau Bailey but it’s now becoming clear that he was never going to fit into the team with a 5.00 point average?

Anders starts the season on 7.38 and if he pulled out late and is now replaced with Zach on 7.34 then Poole would never have had 5 points available for the number 2 position and therefore Gilkes was probably always in the team. 

Poole 

1. Richard Lawson 9.58

2. Dan Gilkes 4.59

3. Lewis Kerr 6.77

4. Fraser Bowes 5.63

5. Zach Cook 7.34

6. William Cairns 3.81

7. Cooper Rushen 2.00  
 

= 39.72, with Anders it would have been 39.76.  Therefore there was never an extra 0.41 to have had Beau instead of Gilkes .

Bailey would’ve been a 4.00 not a 5.00.

Beau would have arrived on a 4.00 I believe
