Time for the IOC to consider moving the curling fields to 12 teams, in line with pretty much every other team sport on either the summer/winter program.

Will they have time for that when the mixed doubles already starts before the opening ceremony?

or is it time that curling maybe changes to 2 groups of 6 instegs for tre round robin ?

It would probably have to be the latter.

Yea hoping with Coventry these caps are removed.

Would love to see China try something against Canada. Jacobs would lose his mind. 

[orangeman 2,025]

And Canada scores 5 in the 4th to go up 8-1!

 

Jacobs tells the boys to get the beers on ice!

Mixed doubles definitely deserves at least 12. There’s way too many quality teams for there to only be 10.

[orangeman 2,025]

China tries to shake after throwing their first in the 8th end (score is 10-2) but the umpire won't let them go, must play the rest of the end. Both skips agree to throw the stones through, end it in a few minutes. 

[Josh 11,107]

Bronze for  ! 
 

11-2 final over

Guess what? There’s been yet another instance of  Team Xu cheating, this time in the quarterfinals against  … 

 

 

 

They didn’t benefit from it (luckily), but it’s the principle of it happening again that frankly has me pissed off at the fact that they not only made it this far, but are one win away from qualifying for the Olympics, the sport on the biggest stage. Curling has no room for cheaters and I hope World Curling does something about it.

Reminds me of how my team missed out on what probably would have been a medal at this years Swedish nationals. I made a runback triple. Noone saw anything and everyone agreed also After Watching the recording, that it didn't made any difference. We could have been silent but my team mate was honest and Said he probsbly made a very small touch, and all 3 Stones were replaced and we lost because of that.
