9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | siovrhyl said: tel it wasn't a dig and yes it would be a pointless exercise making you do the qualifier but i thought they were making it so that nobody got in by right that everyone had to qualify? I'm pretty sure mark did the turkey or poland one with rob frampton just before wsm Turkey didn't happen mate. Maybe he did one of those wsf comps. I see what your saying but if that's the case why not make loz qualify too? It's a qualifier to get you into a giants live. Surely I don't need to qualify for them being I've been doing them for 8 years? My understanding is its not bsm but if there's no bsm the highest place Brit will get the title. I believe there'll be guys from other countries competing, well that's what Colin told me yesterday | ||

Wales strongest man 2012 Member 548, 1197 posts SQ 300, BP 195, DL 360855.0 kgs @ 128kgs Eq | Ah I was under the impression that It was bsm and with loz winning last year he wouldnt have to qualify. Maybe mark didn't do one then I just knew he and rob were down for it | ||

Maybe mark didn't do one then I just knew he and rob were down for it It was only 2/3rd of a comp this year though. I'm not saying Laurence wouldn't have won but 4 events isn't exactly enough imo. That's not a dig at loz just my opinion. In 2007 and 2008 for bsm they said for me and Felix cause we finaled at wsm we didn't have to qualify Thought I should add as I wasn't totally clear perhaps. I think making the final at wsm is as much justification as winning bsm to get a bye | ||

Member 2527, 39 posts | Post Edited: 15.11.2012 @ 08:03 AM by darrensadler just to be clear,Terry is correct...its not bsm (we never said it was) we do not own the title bsm, its the GIANTSLIVE BRITISH OPEN.There will be about 4 Internasionals and the rest british,the highest placing brit will be crowned british champ.As for wild cards Terry and loz have dominated the british circit for years so they will be the only two not to have to qualifie..the rest of the top guys are all to close together and there are limited spaces so they'll have to fight it out for a spot on the 7th april. The british open will be held at Gateshead Stadium on august 3rd and will be filmed for chanell 5 and eurosport.(top 3 got to WSM)For more details go to europestrongestman.com | ||

Red Bull is banned in netball Member 799, 1484 posts | Post Edited: 15.11.2012 @ 16:29 PM by BigT By my reckoning there will be at least 5 or 6 lads who have been to WSM doing the English qualifier in April and 14 others! Going to be brutal, tough but fun! | ||

Member 1032, 5 posts | If there's so much interest in this qualifier, would it not be better to run regional qualifiers? Surely end result is the strongest Brits should be competing, not necessarily just the most well known names? If an up and coming guy like wayne is showing such potential, be a shame for him to not go just because his name isn't established on the giants circuit yet? Just my thoughts, Whoever competes, sounds like it will be an awesome show to watch. | ||
