I'm sick of Canadian announcers talking about the world catching up. No one forced Jones to miss that easy shot in the Swiss game to lose. No one forced her team to miss 8 shots in a row against China. No one made the mixed doubles forget how to play curling suddenly. They just played badly. A 15 year old at the local rink could have made those shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fundamental change to how the sport is run in Canada has to happen ASAP. We just aren’t competitive in curling anymore (forget not being the best), and that’s not acceptable given we have more than 90% of all players in the world. I find it so fascinating how the Swiss team decided to totally regroup and reformat after a disappointing 2018. That's what Canada needs to stay competitive here. One quad where an underperformance is a miss another is a problem. They need to rebuilt the system - the same old is not working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
