The penultimate paragraph appears to imply a rider will only receive this discount once.

It doesn’t imply that at all in terms of getting the initial 25%. It simply say further declarations the 25% will no longer apply. 
 

I’d like to see the rule that simply says, a rider won’t get a 25% reduction on his average following a graduation out of the rising star scheme, if they’ve previously had a 25% reduction in a previous season.

OK after going through the entire thing found this section much higher which does seem to clarify the 25% only applies once so that should settle that. Guess Jenkins will be a 4.50 after all! Why this is in a different section who knows...

Mayfield will need to pull a rabbit out of the hat when it comes to the 1-5 now imo.

Yeah trying to put together a competitive side including brennan, king & Jenkins with 18.95 for the other 3 and nobody higher than a 7.05 as brennan is at 1... tricky!

King's got to go now imo, Can't be having King as a Heat Leader no matter how much he's done for the Club.

If you’re going for Brennan at 1 on a 7.05 average, and you can’t come up with anything better (with all due respect) than Jenkins as the senior reserve, then it’s pretty desperate stuff!

Any takers?

 

1. T. Brennan 7.05

2. R. Tungate 5.89

3. T. Musielak 6.63

4. A. Ellis 5.92

5. 7.00 Newcomer

6. J. Jenkins 4.49

7. J. Edwards (RS)

= 36.98

Depends who said newcomer is. The problem here, is you’re giving up eight points to Belle Vue before the tapes have even risen in heat one. Probably Sheffield too.

If he goes then he should retire.

Thinking along lines of someone like Huckenbeck, Wozniak etc.

Here's a question would scottie Nicholls use 5.55 as his previous prem average with 2.5% reduction or 5.39 on a 2025 champ conversion?

I threw out Scott's name on here months ago and I think I got a reply saying it would be CHAMP conversion.

If it is Brennan at 1 and also a team with King as one the 3 heat leaders and your best reserve is Jenkins,, I think we can safely predict a last place finish.

I've heard it said alot of times in the past,, any team is better than having no team, let's see how that statement stands up crowd level wise
