f**k this man - change the title to Open comp Will, comps with lesser beasts have been called Opens before. No point in this intermediate business if it doesnt mean anything.

If i am entering a comp with all those 300+ deadlift beasts, at least call it Open Grin Cant go around saying how i placed last in an intermediate comp...


Me and Matt are actually Novices not Intermediate ........ To Stongman ..

nah thats not how it works mate. Novice level comps at least used to be to folks with just 200 dead 90 overhead as rough minimum levels, one guy placed half way at severn valley novice with 175kg deadlift and 80 overhead pbs.

And once you place high enough in novice, you shouldnt do them any more. Same if you are too strong for the comps.

Take Mick for instance, he didnt go glory hunting at novice comps or anything, straight into the CNP comps and BSM qualifiers.

At some comps they turn folk away if they are too strong for it. But i expect Will to be too kind to do that Grin

Anyway, its wills call. All i am saying call it opens since it clearly is opens and intermediate doesnt have any meaning in this.

No. of collective strongman comps Clegg & Griff competed in = 0

Although no of Oly & Powerlifting comps is probably a little higher

yeah but you are doing it the right way with the kind of eagerness to go to the Open level as soon as possible, with novice etc just as stepping stones.

These days it seems like guys want to deliberately hand around on light and easy comps for whatever reason it is...

I mean to think i have done open comps last year and never placed last - way weaker that half of the c**ts in the list now!

agree with you entirely mate. Why people want to shift weight that is no challenge to them at all is beyond me!!

hehe, its cool man. I would just call it Opens and let the current lineup compete.

I have been to an open comp with lesser standard/less beasts than the current line up.

if it was a genuine intermediate i would boot more than half of the guys off the list Grin

dont be daft neil theres no way im going to miss jonibol vs the thing! right, this comp is what it is. I only called it intermediate because I cant think of a decent name for it! I just want to put on a good comp with athletes who I know will turn up and give it 100%.
