Strange signing It might be that they needed a 4 point rider to make the numbers work overall & he's actually got experience over here, as opposed to Jake last season who was thrown in at the deep end. Also, depending on how things pan out, a 4 point rider is easier to change than a 2 pointer that we had last season. I believe he had a bad injury last season, but he's been over here for a couple of years, so it will be interesting to see how he gets on.

Makes me think: 1) tba 2)DT 3)BB 4)AB 5)tba 6)JH 7)JT for Glads sake, the reserves are going to be key as it means most likely that the better No.1s/5s will probably go to teams that can fit them in easier, with 4 of the riders signed out of the 5 being on fairly similiar averages, it means that the 1&5 role will probably be 7.00 riders (roughly)

So now we know six, what's that leave us with to finish?
A couple of solid riders in Ben and Kyle, but it's the other four who we'll be looking at to up their averages. They all appear to be the type that should too.

Welcome back Kyle. Bit of another fans favourite. Remember Kyle & Ben riding well together. Need a solid No1. Not much left too play with. Maybe someone who can up their average well. But I think Emil's points may be a little hi lol.

No ride for Craig Cooke yet. A bit far too travel me thinks. But that would make the wife happy. Not sure about BB though. They have history. But you would like too think that would be put behind them.
