Yeah, Warwick was telling me about it when i went down to strength-tec, apparently its not the first time they've shafted him!

I could see all 3 cnadians being invited tbh, didn't caron and savoi come top 2 at a giants live this year? or was that an scl? f**k it i'll google it!

Righto - what I got now is top 5 from SCL qualify, currnetly aas all 5 have already qualified plus a couple of others I make it:

Warwick Brand - AUSTRALIA
Jarno Hams - HOLLAND
Etienne Smit - SA
Janusz Kaluga - POL
Rauno Heinla - EST

SCL canada was the end of the 2011 league even though it was in 2012.

Also I'm not sure if the 5 SCL places get moved down or not.

Cant believe theres 7 Americans and thats without Ortmayer being confirmed so could even be 8. Each nation should only have 5 places at the most and to top it off its being held in usa yet again. Give some other countries a chance

Are the Americans taking the place of stronger guys though? (genuinely don't know)

If not i think it's fair

6 of them have qualified, either through official qualifiers or a top 10 finish at last year's world's. Should American's who qualified not get to go?

Adam Scherr was probably invited from winning the Arnold Amateur World Championship. Despite being an "amateur" competition, it's been shown to be one of most prestigious competitions in Strongman. The previous two winners are also going to be there - Jenkins is in contention of the win, and Baron qualified recently in Poland.

I doubt Ortmayer's getting invited this year.

It'd probably be cheapest to hold it in the UK (IMG is a UK company, and they use some equipment from UK competitions), someone just needs to find a venue that will pay for it!

I really like Ortmayer full of heaet and character, but hes done nothing this year. Its shame; just hope he isn't going the way of Kevin Nee.
