Cricket got a boost the rugby team lost the WC final :lol:

 

Polish awards will be announced on January 4th. Stoch & R. Lewandowski are basically locked into Top 3 IMO.

 

naaa...Cricket is still the biggest English sport (after Football)...even if the rugby team had won the RWC, it wouldn't have changed the rankings that much...

Hmm... I know a guy from Newcastle who claims nobody gives a rat's ass about cricket. I'd say rugby is more popular than cricket in the UK :p

really? :yikes:

 

so, you missed one of last summer's main events in the world of sports...:redcard::spank:

 

In the Commonwealth world of sports and a handful of diehard fans outside of it, I suppose :p  I'm sure in most nations in the world it wouldn't even make an annual 'International sports highlights of 2019' video if they had it.

maybe you're right, but except for Football and Athletics, we can say the same for almost every other sport...:evil:

 

look at rugby...it's only about France, Argentina and the Commonwealth Nations...but still, the RWC is considered one of the biggest sports events in the world...

 

the same goes for Handball, for instance...who gives it a crap outside north/central/eastern Europe?

 

and I could go on for the rest of the day...

me too...

 

and frankly I only agree at 100% on the "team of the year" and the "most improved athlete of the year" result...

 

but as we don't have an official sports award, this is still one of the most reliable among all those we can see all around in these days...

 

p.s. of course I also like the special mention for Sinisa Mihajlovic and I wish him and his family all the best (as I know exactly what kind of drama they're going through and I'm particularly sensitive on that issue), but this has not much to do with sports (except for Sinisa being a famous former player and now a successful coach)...;)

Man of the Year: Dominik Paris (Alpine Skiing) & Elia Viviani (Cycling) ex-aequo

 

Woman of the Year: Dorothea Wierer (Biathlon)

 

Team of the Year: "Settebello" (Men's Waterpolo National Team)

I'd even put  ' Football ' and 'Athletics ' in inverted commas. All countries have their own sport preferences.

In fact each state of India has a different view for all sports. If you say that England won the cricket world cup, people won't even like care in states like manipur ( football, wushu, karate, judo, even weightlifting is more popular than cricket)  and so many north east sides(Arunchal Pradesh, Sikkim just like Bhutan)  that the media will only report it as a normal news and then you go to Andaman and Nicobar Islands you would be asked what is cricket unless you went to mainland as cycling and canoeing are way tooo popular. Athletics isnt considered a sport in many states but entering Kerala it's pretty common to be an sprinter or jumper. Then there are states like Gujarat and all where football is known to very small rural population. My friend's once laughed when I watching some squash but in Tamil Nadu you'll find them keen to learn as its pretty popular. Carolina Marin, Tai Tzu Ying are all very famous in Telangana just because the state follows badminton very much. Even in my state if I say Mohmad Ahsan or Wang Yilu they surely differentiate their events easily if not all at least a sizeable number. Not to forget the wrestling craze of UP and especially Haryana where thousands flock to watch the bouts .

 

So what happens is media reports important news only when it's famous or popular  so there's regional prefernces  across the world.

    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
    • Not only Korostelev but all 3 russian entries. I will bring the detail 
    • And will bet that the IBU is a lot richer than the FIS because their wealth is based on German TV contracts.  
    • Russians filed an appeal to CAS against IBU. But I do not believe they will get any result in time to grab quotas. I suppose IBU will not agree to have "fast" hearings as FIS did. And i suppose IBU will fight in CAS without intention to lose as FIS did.
    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
