That yoke press was ridiculous.

I don't know if he can win WSM, but he looks like a serious contender now. f**king animal!

Credit when it's due. He is easily the best in Britain, no disrespect to the rest.

Well done to Hixxy. When you think of how fubar he was a while back, it has been a lazarus like return to competition.

Pleased for Hixxy.
Shame for Bish. Apparently he crushed his hand under the shield and it got worse as comp went on.

I completely ballsed up the stones and the yoke was too high for me to get much legs in. Could have been a much better day if those 2 went differently

I still think that isn't why he lost. He lost because he wasn't fit enough.

He looks fitter now and should be a serious threat to win WSM. Still wouldn't make him favourite, but with the right preparation he can win it.

I see the sarcasm went over your head lol.

Hall is getting better that's for sure, but will he ever catch shaw and thor? He's definitely up there with them

The power of Hall is incredible.

For anyone who haven't got the man down as top 3 then you are kidding yourself. Just as I wishfully have Shaw lose every time, I know when I am wrong.

Shaw, Hall and Thor are going to make this year a very enjoyable final. The only way anyone else will get in the top 3 is if S/H/T get injured or silly.

halls yoke is quite possibly the most impressive thing ive seen him do, more so than the 500. It was so quick most peoples jaws were on the floor.

I always thought he would struggle against thor and shaw.

But, with certain powers behind him, i imagine the final will suit him hugely this year and hes going to be the man to beat. If he wins squat dead press and 3rd in truck and stones....... just needs another 3rd or 4th placing in another event and its his.

I am a believer.

Just need more size and brute strength but time brings that and you have plenty of it. You wasn't far away from the top guys, you did great.

Yeah I think he's got it if no injuries.

Edit - an christ, you look like you have gained yourself in bodyweight from what you used to look like
