maybe he'll get the Italian passport to play as an Italian (EU) player in the club competitions, but I doubt he'll ever play for our NT

Me to. I do not think you really need him.

Thank God Cuba is an inconsistent team. When they play well, they're quite scary.

Plus the notorious escapes of their best players from the country - for example, Leon played against them today but previously also Juantorena, Leal, etc.

We have a lot of good players in his position: Michieletto, Lavia, Porro, Bottolo, Rinaldi.

 

Ukraine is already 90% in the F8, becouse they now have two weaker opponents: Serbia and Canada.

Cuba was one of our great rivals in the 1990s, along with the Netherlands. The last time they were strong was in 2010 at the World Champ.

and this young team was unforunately destroyed with the defections..

If Plotnyski returns Ukraine will be a strong opponent for anyone. I haven't been happy with Italy's performance since last year – we didn't win a single medal last year. If it's similar this year, it means de Giorgi should leave. But we'll see, maybe peak of the form will be for the Nations League finals and World Championship. So far we looks very weak, although our squad is the best it can be+ Rychlicki joined this year.

I don't think we need him, because it's famous Ukrainian tradition to rig the squads and destroy the atmosphere which affected whole thing (practiced a lot with our kayak/rowing quadruple sculls), we have good guys from U-22, so it can be something without him

I remember he played in the 2022 World Champ. and everything was fine. Maybe he has a conflict with coach Lozano?

    • Ukrainian diver Lyskun switches allegiance to Russia, loses all medals | Olympics News | Al Jazeera   'loses all medals'   I would assume Al Jazeera could have been a bit clearer and mention this would presumably only be national medals. I mean, it's not like the Ukrainian federation, or any single federation for that matter, has the power to strip her of her world and European championships medals I hope (not for her sake, but because that would be a super weird precedent)  
    • That's what I'd plan as well (except for MelFest), but I also know I am hypocritical enough to still want to watch the show and have a fun evening  
    • Confirmation about the broadcasting rights.   If I'm reading it right, for most of Europe it will now be exclusive to Discovery/Eurosport or whatever brand they use.     For outside Europe, it's on YouTube. For Planet VPN....well, let us know if you find out.   fil-taker-list-25-26-winterberg-1.pdf   Also, should have mentioned above that the Nations Cup races today are just over one leg, whereas there are two runs in each of the World Cup races.  
    • Got our first competition of the season coming up in Solitude, Utah  this weekend.  Live on Discovery Plus etc, plus also YouTube and the Olympic Channel.  If you are new to the sport, the sprint races on Saturday will be the format you'll find easy to understand.     ISMF   ISMF Skimo - YouTube    
    • Surely. Her first coach now works in russia (and grandma lives in russia according to Sereda). They were in contact and despite of full funding from  the girl decided to become the star of russian propaganda.  As I saw in X: "It took the Russians four years of war to find a relatively well-known sports personality to carry out such a propaganda operation."
    • @Josh skimo mixed relay is on Saturday, not Sunday, FYI
    • ... this week, time depending.   Today (Dec 5) 4:00pm: Swimming US Open - Finals 9:00pm: Freestyle Skiing WC Big Air Beijing  9:30pm: Snowboard WC Parallel Giant Slalom Mylin   Dec 6 2:00am: Snowboard WC Big Air Beijing 6:45am: Freestyle Skiing WC Aerials Ruka 4:00pm: Swimming US Open - Finals 9:30pm: Snowboard WC Parallel Giant Slalom Mylin   Dec 7 7:30am: Freestyle Skiing WC Moguls Ruka 9:45am: Ski Mountaineering WC Soltitude Mixed Relay   Dec 8 6:30am: Freestyle Skiing WC Moguls Ruka   Dec 9   Dec 10   Dec 11 4:45am: Ski Cross WC Val Thorens 7:00pm: Snowboard Halfpipe WC Secret Garden   Bills, Warriors, and Canucks (have a headache, can't be bothered to put it in...)   No Elite 16 beach volleyball, weak field and most of the top teams have shut down their seasons already. No Snow League Freeski Finals, Heerenveen Speed Skating WC, Alpine Skiing WC either. 
    • Oh dear oh dear.  Going to be ructions with this one.  Established international diver Sofia Lyskun wants to transfer from..... to !     Somehow I think the three year rule will be enforced.   Sofiia Lyskun: Ukrainian federation 'expresses deep indignation' after champion diver switches to Russia - BBC Sport
    • Tennis update: Kamilla Rakhimova has switched to  (her mother is Uzbek).   More shocking is Anastasia Potapova switching to
