Is there a day-by-day schedule for Ashgabat anywhere? The official website is full with nicknames of Ashgabat (Pearl of this, City of that etc), but I can't find a simple schedule :p

Interesting, so this is how it goes :p

 

Quote

10. Anthem

Each Member Federation should bring two (2) national flags sized 100x150cm and the national anthem on CD/USB drive. This must be submitted upon arrival/accreditation to Organizing Committee (OC).

 

CD or USB drive :lol: They can't email an MP3 or something? Anyway, in my opinion GAISC should have a database with national anthems of every nation which the individual sports federations can use :p

I know this preliminary schedule came out in August, but looking at the entry list in Women's 45 kg and 81 kg, the B and C groups don't seem so necessary.

Dictatorship-inspired logo, of course.

It's just an accurate depiction of Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow snatching 225kg, stop crying.

Well he is better than all the Turkmenistan teams in those sports to be honest

the final start list

https://www.iwf.net/wp-content/uploads/downloads/2018/10/Start_Book_Ashgabat.pdf

 

Ilya Ilyin is still there but apparently he is not going to actually lift anything here. and only 8 Iranians here. instead of 10 and those 3 weightlifters who were supposedly wasn't included in the original entry list are still absent. we will know the truth about it soon. but I believe our federation probably made a big big administrative mistake in registering them. :facepalm:

 

interesting that Martirosyan put 440kg as entry ! which means he has to start at least with 420. he is either very dumb or in a very great shape. big challenge for Nurudinov. and guess who is back !!! Andrei Aramnau after 4 years ! :yikes:

 

out of our 8 weightlifters, one of them is in Group B. and from the rest I believe Moradi has a very good chance for the gold (unless he bombs out) Hashemi also will have a good chance for gold (or at least a medal) if Ilyin really doesn't show up.. in this weight Beiralvand has the 3rd entry behind Ilyin and Hashemi. still hard to believe he is a medal chance ! also a very slim chance for Barari. the rest are just here to make the numbers . one of the worst teams we sent in past few years. :( but at least most of them are young. and suppose to be talented. and this is one of the rare years in which we are not a medal chance in super heavyweight. last year we had 2 on the podium ... :cry: Salimi is retired now and Alihosseini is a bit injured and took a break.

 

this is the list of weightlifters with the highest entry in each weight

 

55kg: :PRK OM Yun Chol, 285kg

61kg: :CHN QIN Fulin & :COL MOSQUERA Francisco & :VIE THACH Kim Tuan, 310kg

67kg: :CHN CHEN Lijun, 330kg

73kg: :CHN SHI Zhiyong, 348kg

81kg: :CHN LYU Xiaojun & LI Dayin & :BLR ASAYONAK Petr & :EGY MAHMOUD Mohamed & :ARM KARAPETYAN Andranik, 370kg

89kg: :BLR KHADASEVICH Pavel, 373kg

96kg: :IRI MORADI Sohrab, 410kg

102kg: :IRI HASHEMI Ali & :KAZ ILYIN Ilya, 400kg

109kg: :ARM MARTIROSYAN Simon, 440kg

+109kg: :GEO TALAKHADZE Lasha, 460kg

    • Does the CAS have the authority to address from someone who believes the judges made a mistake in a given discipline? Pizzolato's last attempt at Paris 2024, which earned him the bronze medal, was controversial, but what does the CAS have to do with it? Even if the judges made a mistake then, the result won't change and this isn't the only case where someone feels wronged with this in world of sports. Unless, of course, they have some evidence of corruption or something like that
    • If Pizzolato will to return, would it be to the 86 kg category, or the 94 kg category, like Nasar? In 2024, they were both in the 89 kg category, which will no longer be at the Olympics, but in 2021 in Tokyo, Pizzolato won a medal in the 81 kg category.   Of course, it's unclear what's going on with the rape accusations- personally, unfortunately, I don't think he was ever a sweet angel- he was accused of other immoral things also 10 years ago, but gang rape? I find that hard to believe... Besides, Moldova has appealed about his bronze medal from Paris 2024 to the CAS- the verdict was supposed to be in February. Do you know anything about this? Did they have any grounds for this lawsuit at all?
    • Ukraine won 6 gold medals out of 10 in the women's competotion  + 1 silver and 1 bronze. Where do they get these girls from? It's always been a strong country, but they have never dominated like this. I wonder if their training methods would work in another country and if their coaches have any offerts to job from other countries? However, there is a significant decline in women's judo in Ukraine, so maybe they have directed all their resources and money towards wrestling?
    • Sablikova started on the road cycling and just almost qualified for Rio 2016. Maybe Lollobrigida would like to join the Italian track team? She has the good character and 2 medals at the Olympics, one in winter and one in summer, would be a legendary achievement, not only in Italy.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martina_Sáblíková
    • One Wiebes is worth more than the all Italian team with Balsamo/Fidanza, etc., that much clear. Even if the Netherlands loses its dominance in the men's sprint, Wiebes will win 2-3 gold medals in other events. Just relax, man.
    • I'm most worried about our women's team in the pursuit – we have a reserve squad, but not advancing to the top 8 is a shame. We recently competed with out 1 team and had not good in 1 round. It doesn't look good. And the Netherlands are already taking Wiebes to the track team and will soon dominate the Madison/Omnium as well. Balsamo and Paternoster haven't made any progress for years and the our women's team at the Olympics has little chance to win a medal. Italy might even win World Championship/European Championship gold in the years after the Olympics, etc., but when the real fight comes, the UK or the USA will always beat us
    • Track cycling is one of the few sports where there is no host nation quota, so  will need to work hard to achieve our quotas.  It's not our best sport, but was happy to see Top 10 results in the Elimination Race for Grant Koontz and Emma Jimenez Palos (who is just 18!).
    • Yes, I saw the same thing you did @clemsonbeav (on both accounts) but I agree it looks pretty stock.  
    • Also, I just logged back into my account, where it sent me to update my profile, and when I saved that, I got a screen that included a check mark next to 'Registered for the Draw'.  Not sure I totally trust it, but it does at least say so.  (There's nothing specifically referencing Drop 2 or anything...might just be a stock screen.). I'm curious what it would look like if you looked at it @esube.  https://tickets.la28.org/
