But then again, Irish jury gave 12 to Belgium and 3 to Germany. Brits can safely assume that the Irish lost their mind that night. :p

 

I would love to know who was on that jury and shake them, "what the hell were you thinking?". How do I apply to become a jury member? :d

My biggest issue is Australia's entry. How the hell did these juries kiss ass for those points? At least they only got 2 points in televoting, but come on. Worst song out of the bunch!!!

 

And don't get me started on overrated Belgium (though it's actually alright, but still)

 

Austria nil points in televoting? I don't like the song either, but really, people?

 

Anyway, I'm happy Portugal won (mainly because it's a brand new country winning, which will always be my favorite victory plus past victories over 10 years old), and Bulgaria getting second. I'm surprised Moldova got 3rd, but then again, Epic Sax Guy

 

And no I didn't watch Logo TV because I chose not to, mainly because of the commentary, but now I might have to watch the rebroadcast since people actually liked the commentary.

My ranking would have been:

1) Bulgaria

2) Azerbaijan

3) Portugal

4) Moldova

5) Belgium

6) Sweden

7) Romania

8) Hungary

9) Croatia

10) UK

Moldova, Romania and Sweden had a great choreography, but not the most talent or the best vocals, so it's good that they didn't win. I expected this to be between Bulgaria, Belgium and Portugal, but Belgium was pretty disappointing live, so it's good that Blanche didn't win. Azerbaijan also would have deserved to win, but i guess it was clear that politics would make that impossible.

 

Here is a funny video, where american people react to Eurovision and especially the top 5, they also give their own ranking:

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

    • And even here we lose to France? I really don't know what's the point of organizing the Olympics if you can't make progress in practically any sport. France has the Olympics in 2030 and there they will definitely prepare 100%, just like for Paris. We can't do that. It's obvious that in ski jumping we have no chance of winning medals, but decency dictates that we should at least win here with a France like that.
    • Finally the ski jumping season begins 11 teams in the (real) mixed team competition, no Switzerland.
    • Most of our athletes are constantly bothered by something: the pressure to qualify, the miss of pressure when they have already qualified, etc. It's the same in football: at the beginning of the season they are a poor form becouse of a little played and at the end of the season they are tired. They are always looking for excuses. A real champion always plays at a high level, like Sinner, and doesn`t look for 1000 excuses for his poor performance.
    • Think it is mentally difficult for the two teams with the Olympic place guaranteed and the pressure off, whereas everyone else is absolutely playing at 110%.  I'm sure things will be better once they get to Milan. 
    • There's no point in cheating, these were terrible European Championships for us. Retronaz out of form, Constantini with a huge number of big mistakes. Only illness can excuse it... We've probably lost the last 10 matches with Switzerland... It looks like Constantini had the tournament of her life in mixed doubles in 2022 in Beijing and she will never reach this level again.
    • What good is it to us if we took 4th place and lost an important match? If Constantini was sick, I forgive her, but I'm afraid that the Italian team will not exceed a certain level. Yes, they have made progress since 2022, but they lack that one decisive step to become a class team. Here we lost all important matches with teams at our/higher level: Sui x2, Sco x2, Swe. We only won with the one we were supposed to win with. I don't believe in a medal for this team in Cortina. After 2022, it seemed that Constantini could dominate women's curling, but it didn't happen that way. After Sinner's recent successes, I opened my eyes a bit and started to demand more from our athletes, coaches, and officials. I have no intention of being satisfied with 4th place, because with this approach, you won't achieve anything great.
    • play their best, but only get 1, so  get bronze 6-4!  
    • Oh dear, once again a 50% shot from Constantini when she needed 100%.   blank the end & go into the 10th with the Hammer of Thor.  
    • Very quick end &  get 2 back to 6=3, but  have the hammer in ninth....
