  1. here we go! Summer's not over yet, but the great Hockey season is just to start once again! Tomorrow, in fact, the first among the main European Domestic Leagues will open the 2023/2024 campaign as usually in the past few years, the honor goes to the Betera Extraliga, which will start in just less than 24 hours, with 3 matches scheduled for Tomorrow between the 7 and 7.30 p.m. local time (6/6.30 p.m. CET) After , on Friday, September 1st it's time for the Metalligaen (3 matches) and the KHL, with the traditional opening game that this year will be contested by CSKA Moscow and AK Bars Kazan (7 p.m. local time, 6 p.m. CET) then, in the following couple of weeks, also the other European Domestic Leagues will open their campaign, according to this calendar: Ligue Magnus, 9/9 (Rd #1, 5 matches) Liiga, 12/9 (Lukko Rauma vs HPK Hämeenlinna, 6.30 p.m. local time, 5.30 p.m. CET) NLA, 13/9 (Fribourg-Gotteròn vs HC Lausanne, 7.45 p.m. CET) Tipsport Extraliga, 14/9 (HC Škoda Plzeň vs HC Ocelàři Třinec, 5.30 p.m. CET) DEL, 14/9 (Red Bull Munich vs DEG Düsseldorf, 7.30 p.m. CET) SHL, 14/9 (Full Rd #1, 7 matches) (), ICE Hockey League, 15/9 (Full Rd #1, 6 matches) Extraliga, 15/9 (Full Rd #1, 6 matches) Eliteserien, 15/9 (2 matches)
  2. short version in rowing we've always had a good tradition, a lot of clubs in many places all around the country, a decent talent pool and a lot of very good coaches in canoeing, the talent pool is basically a small bunch of enthusiasts, we don't have many good coaches and also a lot less clubs than rowing just to start practicing the sport the womens have always been a problem in both those sports because we are a truly sexist country that always put obstacles to the girls trying to practice certain sports (rowing and canopeing among them), therefore we've never been really competitive in that sector
  3. no way! the Kenian had his feet in the 2nd lane already, Sibilio had all the right to go through on the inside actually, it's Kenya that should have been DQed because of his last guy trying to stop Sibilio with his left arm great job by both our 4*400m relays on the other hand, quite delusional efforts by Stecchi (M PV) and Battocletti (W 5000m) not that they were expected to do anything special, but at least going close to their PB was the minimum result...and they just didn't
  4. c'mon! if your team doesn't get at least into the top 4 at the end of the tournament, you should send them home by swimming (with some sharks pursuing them)
  5. what a shitty day for Italian canoeing once again!
  6. no, replacements can only be made until an hour before the start of the actual competition...if you get injured in the last warmup when you're already on the track there's no way to call up the reserve man/woman/transexual
  7. naaa, she got injured in the warm-up jumps
  8. already announced 10 of their selected players for Paris 2024 (barring injuries and other extravaganza, of course) women -48kg: Natsumi Tsunoda -52kg: Uta Abe -57kg: Haruka Funakubo -70kg: Saki Niizoe +78kg: Akira Sone men -66kg: Hifumi Abe -73kg: Soichi Hashimoto -81kg: Takanori Nagase -90kg: Sanshiro Murao +100kg: Tatsuru Saito
  9. men's Individual Trap Gold: Giovanni Cernogoraz Silver: Marian Kovacocy Bronze: Khaled Almudhaf Olympic Quota Places (to the NOCs, NOT to the shooters): Full Results https://www.issf-sports.org/competitions/venue/csevent.ashx?cseventid=18396
  10. women's Individual Trap Gold: Lin Yi Chun Silver: Jessica Rossi Bronze: Kathrin Murche Olympic Quota Places (to the NOCs, NOT to the shooters): Full Results https://www.issf-sports.org/competitions/venue/csevent.ashx?cseventid=18395
  11. tied with 5 targets to go... I just can't...
  12. official: bronze for now vs for gold, with leading by 1 before the last 10 targets my heartrate is dangerously rising
  13. and it's official: 4th place for now leads by 2 points over and is suddenly in the hunt for silver 5 more targets to decide the bronze medal
  14. next out, bronze for OQP for both of them, however
  15. the next out, 5th place and OQP for her and tied in the lead after 30 targets
  16. out Jessica wasting some chances to get clear from the rest of the field
  17. yeah, it's not correct, they should fix the whole schedule what they indicate as laser run final in fact is the full final session (with all the 4 elements), meanwhile the 6 hour sessions are the semifinal heats (and from this it's impossible to understand if they will go for the 2 18-player heats or the 3 12-player heats) the only correct info is the fencing bonus rounds on day #1 of the sport (Aug. 8th)
  18. men's Trap Marian Kovacocy and Khaled Almudhaf are safe in the final (and will fight for the OQPs) @hckošice then, we have a 7-man shoot-off for the last 4 places in the decisive act: Derrick scott Mein and William Hinton (both not competing for any OQP) Jiri Liptak (also not competing for an OQP, as he's already qualified) Giovanni Pellielo (53 years old, 4-time Olympic medallist, this would be his 8th Olympic participation, if he gets until there, of course) Giovanni Cernogoraz Andres Garcia Mitchell Iles the last 4 will fight for both the final and the OQPs
  19. yes, I can tell you that CSKA is surely active in Olympic Wrestling, I have no idea about Dynamo (but I think they also are there) I'm also pretty sure that all the athletes from the traditional regions who are serving the mandatory military service, during those 18 months (or is it 2 years now? ) have to temporarily switch to those military clubs to continue their wrestling activity in that span (otherwise they would be enrolled in the regular troops, with all that means)
  20. naaa...the Olympic format is the same of the European Games semifinals would consist of 2 heats with 18 players each, so the final (on 1 single heat, of course)* in the semis there are the fencing bonus round, swimming and laser run (most likely no riding), in the final there will be also the riding before the final laser run *they might also split the players in 3 heats of 12 in the semis
  21. however, I think that the German TV has a better picture quality (for those who consider that an important factor)
