@RobtheAggie Mark Kirchner? Myriam Bedard on the women's side but she had the pregnancy break.
-
Right. You mentioned his awkward comments about Pidruchnyi though. If he says that in public I can only wonder what he really thinks about all this
-
It's not paranoia. His deleted IG comments were aimed at Loginov though and then Shipulin fired back
-
I hope they pull this through and keep the 20/50 distances. Let's make no mistake, this is driven by the TV deals. They don't want to waste 4 hours of TV window for race walking. They kicked them out of the stadiums for the finish section not to interfere with some random morning heats sessions already and now they want to make the event even more obscure than it is already.

Like none of these athletes care about the politics. They couldn't recognize Odessa from Omsk anyway. It could have been worse if we had a male Kuzmina out there so a Russian competing under a different flag with those kind of results. Since Shipullin has retired I guess MF needs to find a new punchbag. Might as well be Loginov and/or Pidruchnyi. It doesn't surprise me a lot.

There's a clear anti-Russian/Ukrainian propaganda in the Western world. What else do you expect from Fourcade? He probably wants all banned from IBU competition

[PREDICTION CONTESTS] Discussion Thread

I picked the wrong Frenchman to win 2 medals in SP/PU. Went with Desthieux and QFM is spoiling my results -
Pidruchnyi REALY going for redemption here! 15 secs ahead of JTB. Could be just not enough...
-
JTB misses three! He wants to add some excitement here...
-
We went from a 4-men group battling for silver to a 5-men group with completely different names Pidruchnyi going for redemption!
-
This is old school biathlon where shooting was paramount. It's only in the last 15-20 years when we've had these extremely good skiers who could win despite missing 1 or 2 shots more than the rest. Look at Kuzmina, 13/20 and still Top 6. That would never happen in the 90s. Dahlmeier knows she won't out-ski anyone at these Champs so she has to keep it clean on the range.
-
Germany will shoot well but I wonder if Preuss' today's performance takes her out of the relay? Hinz was equally lacklustre in the sprint. Norway has the speed but not the shooting. Russia can sneak under the radar.
-
Dahlmeier's ski form is below average so she knows she has to work it on the range. Eckhoff still clowned her at the finish. Why give up the inside and then to sneak back?
-
Eckhoff could still take silver... I bet Brorsson won't be doing any interviews today...
-
Herrmann clowns them... Germany 1-2. Brorsson with the meltdown... Eckhoff with bronze!
-
Brorsson 5 shots away from the biggest success of her career! Can she handle it though? Never better than 5th on the World Cup.
-
Vittozzi 3 misses... Preuss 4 misses... This is Dahlmeirer's race to lose... Herrmann will crumble in the stands... Hopefully Brorsson handles the pressure... Ekhoff the big unknown on the range as usual...
-
Monika Hojnisz also DNS today. They say she's got a high temperature but it's basically a cover for the poor sprint result IMO.
-
Will Lindstroem retire after this season?
-
Not bad for a guy who doesn't know anyone other than Fourcade?
-
I like Chop-liver
-
Sadly I picked the wrong Frenchman on the podium! I thought QFM has a better chance in 4-shoot races.
-
Well, I picked MF to win 0 individual medals here IIRC
-
No medal for Fourcade... ski speed is nowhere... he might even lose to Desthieux...
-
Fourcade could deny QFM a medal
