Different groups have different events, which athletes have been training for months. You can't change their events the day before. | ||

No. There are 10 events split between 5 groups, but no 2 groups have the same events. Load + drag and stones are the only 2 events featured in every group. The other 4 events are deliberately mixed, to keep the qualifiers from being repetitive on TV. | ||

hernia returning due to hobby of patient Member 1306, 1907 posts SQ 270, BP 202.5, DL 340812.5 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | How did Terry and Felix qualify ? Personally would prefer to see new blood come through. Neither of those two are anywhere near strong enough to make the finals or ever will be now... | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Post Edited: 27.04.2018 @ 23:18 PM by Mikeneto Terry was top 3 so deserves it...i agree Felix shouldn't be there ahead of Paul, but the audience like him and he inspires older people. He makes me less worried about getting old. | ||

They have pretty much turned it into a reality TV show with this stupid stone s**t. | ||
