Enough was enough. Banned. Member 6099, 775 posts SQ 300, BP 195, DL 310805.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | lol at the fanboys because he's English/British. He has no chance of winning the WSM at 180kgs BW, that's just a fact. | ||

 It's a moonface era now. Member 5901, 956 posts | i want Hall to win and retire but i dont think he will win Shaw looks massive, he may win the deadlift too Matheusz will be on podium i think whose place he will take ? Hall or Thor's maybe | ||

Doesn't like tall people very much. Member 5708, 391 posts SQ 260, BP 195, DL 275730.0 kgs @ 137.5kgs UnEq | 93hopkinsonr said:I don't know why there's so much doubt with hall. He was 4th last year, certainly stronger this year and one of the men who beat him isn't in it. Surely he'll be 3rd at worst. I sort of agree with this. He might have one very bad event, but I don't see anyone bar Shaw and usually Thor (not sure on his shape this year) being consistent enough to beat him. Everyone has a very poor event bar the normal top 3. With Z out and Thor in questionable shape I think he'll fight for 2nd. | ||

 embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | SteBennett said: Hall seems to be getting more into the preparation than ever before. He's got a grip coach, I don't believe if his grip was that bad he'd have left it until the last minute to get his services. Kb he's undoubtedly gonna drop points on but others will drop points on other events. It wouldn't be the first time someone has a shocking event and still win It's not his grip that I see hurting him on the frame carry, it's a lack of speed going by the video he put up. The likes of loz, arsjo, shaw and kieliszkowski are all likely to be considerably faster than him. That's a fair few points to drop plus another chunk of points from kb throw and i just can't see Shaw losing big points on anything. I get people's comments about wanting to support British guys. However there is a big difference between supporting British athletes and blind optimism/ignoring hall's apparent shortcomings in two of the six events. | ||

They're all fair points and until it all happens no one knows for sure. I'm just hoping for a miracle with kb throw, and with the frame I know there's people faster but I don't think he's quite as bad as people think. Hollands, Loz, arsjo and the polish guy could all beat shaw too on the frame, there might not be too many between them. I just wish we could watch it instead of having to wait | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5209 posts | I predict Shaw to win and Ed second. I also think Shaw will win deadlift with 470 plus. If Ed pulls anymore than that, he will probably withdraw. | ||

 Mr.Potato deadlift Member 2675, 4798 posts SQ 300, BP 202.5, DL 300802.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Do we even know the weights of the kettle bells he was throwing? Could be heavier than in comp? | ||
