you mean 16 pts... this is not Eurovision 

Yeah, you're right  I still made some mistakes with the format that changes every 2-3 editions

That's why Zagainova stayed at home... with mentality like this  He suppose to bring 15 pts back.... He's world champion and he's mentality is more like ''i'm here just to participate.....'''

Although Grikšaitė is better not ruin it as we expect 15 pts from her,

Zagainova though is having her best season this year since her NR steal from Kilty.

 

Grikšaitė doesn't give me too much confidence, because her lack of international event experience might come into play like it did at the ECH.

 

I would rather see Kilty here, but I support the selection process and understand why Aina is here and not Dovilė.

I just love how Zagainova on LRT keeps saying that it's a very professional decision from Gudžius to just get a mark and throw 62 metres here, when he should be aiming to get a European Games medal especially after Weisheidinger's throws today. 

He’s gonna make you eat your words.

Stable performance on day 2 keeps us mid table and away from the bottom.  Hopefully Nacheva won't flop in the triple jump and be around 4th-5th or so. Our unofficial battle with Slovakia is still very close.

Great 200m Hurdles from Sigurdardottir

Time for Gudžius to throw 72 metres and destroy Čeh   

This should be one of the more competitive and elite individual events. Weißhaidinger  in D3, Gudžius and Čeh  in D2, and Okoye  and Ståhl  in D1.

But equally likely that Okoye ends up barely hitting 60m - great talent but ridiculously inconsistent.

fine 57.83 SB from Ledecká here (not the Ester one), just pitty Zapletalová is still injured, her 55 seconds run would be great for us her

Very painful moment for Estonia with DQ in 400m W Hurdles and NM in Discus Throw back to back. 

[Grassmarket 2,786]

Spectacular meltdown from  in the 400m hurdles - went from first to last less than 100m.
