Oh sorry I forgot, you can't read my mind lol. I meant for the Olympics. Haha. 

I honestly have no idea...last time, unused quota places were distributed to the next eligible nations, but the qualification document this time says "Reallocation of unused quota placed - Not applicable", which makes a huge difference...

Man, you really have quite a discussion here. :) 

 

Tell me, heywoodu, what are chances for Tina Mlakar and / or Polona Klemenčič achieving standard to compete in Pokljuka for women relay. We need one of them to qualify (besides Gregorin, Eržen and Poje)?

Out of nowhere.

Valj Semerenko is training in Pokljuka... with the main team. In a bib, lol.

Trainers planned that she will return in January. Wondering if she's ready.

Quote

At WC events with relays, all NFs having a start right may register the minimum number of athletes required to compete in the relay provided all the athletes meet the qualification requirements for the WC. This rule also applies to mixed relays and single mixed relays provided the NFs have both men and women with a start right for the WC.

 

The requirements:

 

Quote

To gain the right to participate in WC events, a competitor must have 150 IBU qualifying points or less at the end of the last trimester, or fulfill one of the following criteria:

 

a. Compete in at least one competition earning 125 IBU qualifying points or less at an IBU Cup, OECH, WCH or OWG in the Sprint or Individual during the current or preceding trimester; or

 

b. One finish in the top half at the most recent JWCH (not Youth).

 

Gregorin, Erzen and Poje are well within the 150 after the last trimester and Gregorin and Erzen have already gotten under 125 as well this season so those three won't be a problem, like you said.

 

Mlakar had 198 points after the last trimester, Klemencic 220, so they'll have to fulfill either criterium A or B. They both didn't get close to 125 points in Beitostoelen at the IBU Cup, so the only option left is B, the JWCH last season:

 

Individual: Mlakar was 37th out of 66 (or 67 depending on whether or not a DNF counts) --> not in the top half

Sprint: Mlakar was 41st out of 65 (or 67) --> not in the top half

Pursuit: Mlakar was 43rd out of 58 --> not in the top half

 

Klemencic didn't compete, so as far as I can see, Slovenia only has 3 athletes who meet the WC requirements, meaning they wouldn't be allowed to start in the women's relay...

    • Interesting (optimistic) predictions for GB. Don‘t See Them winning 5 golds (more than China and as many as Canada). I think 3 golds are more Realistic (Brookes + 2 in curling/skeleton). Especially gold for Bankes seems To be a rather optimistic prediction, given that Casta is 11 years younger and just beat Bankes.
    • Medal Table (Change from 2022)    - 20 (+4)  - 13 (+1)  - 13 (+5)  - 9 (+7)  - 9 (=)  - 7 (+2)  - 7 (=)  - 6 (-2)  - 6 (-1)  - 5 (+1)  - 5 (+4)  - 4 (+1)  - 4 (-5)  - 3 (+2)  - 2 (=)  - 1 (=)  - 1 (+1)      -5,  -2,  -2,  -2, , -1, , -1, , -1 fail to male the list   On 1st glance 1 feel I have underestimated Canada, Sweden and Finland, and overestimated GB (obviously) and Netherlands.    If the Russians aren't competing then the Norwegians will have a field day in cross country skiing, but it is too early to tell.   World cups and championships aren't always the best measure for some sports but it's the best I can find.      As an overall trend I feel this will be a strong games for the European nations (home advantage) but the Asian nations might struggle, not necessarily at the extent I predicted here but I don't think their results will be as good as Beijing.

    • I don’t think that Scattolo would be slower/less competitive than multiple of your current starters, so as an Italian Coach I would Definitely give her a Chance in The World Cup.
    • Will be interesting To see if younger athletes Like Grotian or Tannheimer can keep their skiing speed After The christmas Break. In The Past younger athletes Like Grotian or Elvira Öberg often Lost their Speed over The Break.   Also interesting To see that Julia Kink is faster than Selina Grotian was last year, so hopefully Next year she will reach The Level that Grotian currently Has. I feel that Kink so far didn‘t get The results she would have Been Capable of.
    • Very early predictions for Team Germany: Julia Tannheimer will become The youngest ever Olympic medalist in biathlon Selina Grotian will become The third youngest ever Olympic medalist in biathlon Finn Sonnekalb will become The third youngest Olympic medalist in men’s Speed skating
