Who managed to beat her?

 

Edit: Never mind, I see they picked four other women in different weights. Ugh, this system sucks so bad, I wonder how many weights we'll have where we will actually see for example the best three in the world compete. Just now I notice there's also not even Tian Tao :cry: 

Yeah, it's terrible that not only do you have to compete within your own event you have to compete against athletes in other events in order to qualify. We have a similar issue (though a lot smaller) in the kayak events in canoe sprint.

alongside HUN at +109kg, ALB also took the Asian unused quota at 81kg. and women's +87kg unsed quota also went to Austria.

 

and it seems Ukraine rejected 109kg quota which went to Lithuania.

 

also after removing Romania. Toma's quota went to Germany.

So is that Ireland’s chance of a quota gone? :d 
 

Edit: actually if I remember we are not waiting on the unused Asian quota but the host reallocation and where the wildcards will be awarded.

no that was something else :d Asian unused quota was supposed to go to the next best ranked weightlifter.

 

but there will be 3 unused host quotas. we still don't know which weights are going to receive them. (that will depend on 4 wild cards) but if one of them comes to this weight, Ireland is #1 priority to get that.

 

unused host quotas are supposed to go to the next best weightlifter from NOCs "not represented yet"

Is :NZL going to decline quotas?

I don't think so

 

I believe their policy (stupid policy if you ask me) is something about finishing in top 16 of the World Championships or Olympics. they don't reject quotas in events with low number of athletes (16 or less than that)

last time they didn't reject a quota in wrestling which was won by doing nothing , their guy lost the only match he had to win but later the Australian wrestler got caught for doping. (the NZ wrestler got injured and didn't participate in Rio eventually though)

so :GUM not awarded tripartite ?

Tripartite in women's category will be given in 64,76,87,+87kg. 

 

But Guam claim quota in 55kg. That would be 15 lifters

    • And is there any chance that the Polish president would have escape within the first 2-3 days of war? Probably 0%. In 1939, the authorities escaped, but after an attack from 2 sides, the first being the German attack.
    • Hmm, and were they wanted to capture Kyiv in three days? Since middle of 2022, their run has been slow, so I don't think they'll be using any rapid maneuvers on the future. They surprised Ukraine at the very beginning on the war and were close to success. Zelenskyy only needed to flee the country in the first 2 or 3 days of the war. And Russia could have counted on this happening, because Zelenskyy wasn't an experienced politician or soldier and could have do however they wanted. In my opinion, Zelensky's role in Putin's plan ruined everything for them- he, as a populist and inexperienced man, was to escape from Kiev in the first few days of the war. Then Russia would have put in one of its own- Yanukovych? and Europe and the USA would probably have approved that.
    • Fortifications could only work for illegal immigrants but not against drones. We're wasting missiles worth millions of euro to shoot down drones worth 10k. It's anyone's guess how quickly Russians would reach Vistula River if the invasion came from two sides (Kaliningrad & Belarus). It would be days and not weeks...
    • Shocking news 😔 We just saw him competing 2 days ago in Annecy. 
    • Yes, and Ukraine is very important to Putin- far more important than the Baltic states, Georgia or even Poland. Without Ukraine, the restoration of the former USSR will be impossible for Putin. Another thing is that with pro-Russian Ukraine, Poland will have its entire eastern and northern border (Kaliningrad) with unfriendly countries except Lithuania, so it will basically have to militaries the all entire eastern part of Poland and build various fortifications there.
    • After all, it's one thing to dislike someone, even to destroy something (if it remains a rumor, which it usually is), and quite another to steal money... In the Italian national team there was the Wierer vs. Vittozzi conflict, in the polish team in Sochi 2014 there were accusations of various strange things: destroying a skies, rifle, etc., but theft is a serious crime, not just some rumors.
    • Stalin got Karelian Peninsula and Viborg and that was enough. Land invasion from Finland made no sense 60 yrs ago and makes even less sense in 2020s.   Finland isn't that important strategically even when it comes to Baltic Sea. U need to control Danish straits to control the Baltic. Warsaw Pact had an invasion plan of Denmark for this one reason.    Likewise Mediterranean Sea was no priority for Stalin. SU wasn't a naval power back in the day.
    • Exactly. It's not just Simon and her theft, there are other issues as well.
    • By the way, I did not follow the action, but there was another accident. "Jeanne Richard damaged her teammate Oceane Michelon's rifle. She was caught red-handed by Justine Braisaz-Bouchet." I do not know, if it was resolved somehow.
    • If Jeanmonnot and Brasaiz are against Simon, perhaps they should have dropped Simon to improve the team spirit. Especially since there was the possibility of dropping Simon for her bad behavior. One thing is conflicts like the Vittozzi-Wierer on Italy NT some times ago, but money theft within the team is quite another. Simon clearly has a serious problem with himself.
