dcro 10,172 Posted February 26, 2017 #21 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Ok, so Finland has to win a medal in this after disasters in team sprints. Only 30 seconds outside of silver after jumping. And they do have Manninen and Herola in the team, excellent skiers. Hirvonen and Mutru are very good too. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm definitely hoping with you, but I truly doubt it's possible.. Gold will of course be for Germany if nothing weird happens (which would mean Kircheisen would finally get a gold medal after such a huge career, the one and only reason I'm hoping for nothing weird to happen there). That's three teams left that Finland has to overtake at least. Japan is probably possible, France should be possible although Braud was strong. I very much doubt they can pass Austria or Norway though... My guess is Germany for gold, Norway for silver and Austria for bronze if Gerstgraser in last position can keep it together. If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Well, hoping that Kircheisen wins a gold today is like hoping that Martin Fourcade wins the overall WC.

dcro 10,172 Posted February 26, 2017 #30 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Awful tactics by Finish coach. Putting the weakest skier first. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
