I support this decision, 100%.
Small note, even the strongest nations like Uzbekistan, USA, are using many Russian born athletes. Others (ones from MHSN's post) are really pushing their limits.
If only this decision could be applied to all other sports. We wouldn't have Asian championships in Europe in table tennis.

I'm all in favor of this and it was about time. Wrestling has become table tennis 2.0 and in some cases even worse. In European Championships from 20 wrestlers in a weight you were seeing 7-8 foreigners. Yes, it's mostly Russians, but there are also Ukrainians, Georgians, Cubans being naturalized.
I've said it numerous times, that i don't approve the tactic our federation started of naturalizing people left and right. Which actually wasn't paying off that much, until the Olympics. If it leads to worse results, than it's just a wakeup call for the destruction of our wrestling system (which has been evident for 15 years).
New season streams are posted for the weekend if you need to get your schedule organised.
Remember, it's a double bill from Pyeongchang on Saturday and Sunday this weekend, then a single race from next weekend. No bobsleigh yet, so I guess they will get double races with no skeleton later in the season.
There were two Asian Cup races on the Pyeongchang track last weekend, and another scheduled for tomorrow, so no excuses for poor performance, everybody should be used to it by now.
