It would be nice if this freed up extra space for an extra lifter from the Uk

I guess Ilyin will go the Klokov route - post big instagram lifts from the Training Hall!

Taklahadze is training in the training hall at the World Juniors (for some reason). Multiple snatches at 200kg (including a missed double) and a 240kg.

Salimi posted a 220kg snatch balance and Moualei a 265kg block clean on instagram, so things are definitely hotting up!

As per FB - Tiler got the Olympic slot.

Delighted for her, gutted for Smith.

Assuming I can read a schedule, Tiler lifts at Midday.

EDIT: Live Feed available through All Things Gym website, naturally...

Please Ignore the above, she is not lifting. Unhappy

Mercy Brown hits a British Record 105kg n the Snatch - she made 107kg but had it turned down (elbows I guess, and possibly only by the Jury).

EDIT: Brown goes on to hit 2 more British Records in the C&J, ending up on 131 for 105 + 131 = 236, and only a whisker away from a 238 total.

Given that she only turned 20 a few weeks ago...I dislike "expecting" young lifters to continually improve as so many other things go on in life but she could be hitting 250+ within a few years.

Amongst much
other great lifting Simon Martirosian (sp?) went 187 / 225 as a light SHW (109.90kg).

Russia out of the Olympics! Not good news for the weightlifting comp.

Also am I right in thinking no Chinese have been caught from the reanalysing of 2008 & 2012?

So far I think you are right.

It still wouldn't entirely surprise me if we see some familiar faces competing under the Olympic Banner - which is probably fair enough for those who have never received a sanction.

On further musing it would not surprise me if the entire Russian Squad (what is left of it, anyway) are pulled out on the eve of the Games as some showboating on Putin's part.

Two can play that Game, after all.

Personally I don't think any Russians should be allowed to be at this Olympics or the next Winter Olympics (at least competing under the Russian flag) given their state endorsed efforts to cheat at the Olympics and manipulate their anti doping, so IMO this would be great if it happen
