What are the events? I think that might determine whether Bish is on the podium. Or maybe it won't, I've got no idea really!!

There's a couple of guys from Sheffield competing Phil Roberts, and some other guy. Unit 94 might know ;-)
Can't wait I'm off to watch, definitely going to be the closest one in years.

Hix or Loz to win. After that is anybodies guess. With a good showing on the day there are probably 5 other guys capable of getting on the podium.
Obviously I'd like to see the sugden gents do well, but I'm still staggered that so many people overlook Mr Bixby?
I can see Hixxy winning this, and I hope he does!

With these events it will be Hicks, Loz and Bish top 3. I wish they were a bit more imaginative with event choice. How about something like Squat, maxle, hussafelt stone or equivalent, keg toss, tyre flip and frame (without straps)
That would make things much less predictable and would give the likes of the Stoltman brothers or Paul Smith a bit more of a chance to sneak in.
Sadly with 14 competitors coming last on the overhead will pretty much end Felix's chances of the win and straps on the frame end his hopes of a podium. I never see the point of a frame carry/farmers walk with straps.

This will be ther first BSM I've not been to for 5 years and this looks to be the best, gutted. I think hixxy for the win and it'll be so close for podium spots. I'm going bish second, Loz third and really close between Paul, page and Roberts for 4th.
Actually I forgot about Luke and Tom. It'll be a great show!
