9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | Mikeneto said:Agree with the above. He will be the heaviest which is an advantage in squats. Also on that squat video he mentions wearing a suit. Would be interesting to see which competitors will be wearing a suit. Suits are for pussies! I'm only saying that cause I can't get on with mine haha | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | EDCLARKE said:I wouldnt be at all suprised if Brian is a far better squatter then we all think he will be. everyone thought he would be crap on the log at Arnolds and then he hits 2 reps with 200k. No possible way he's not been doing his squats, he will be better than people think. | ||

If there's a new bit of kit he will get something made to match, everything is precision planned. He trains the events exactly as they will be so no way he would leave that stone unturned | ||

I think he will suprise people with his squat. | ||

I know everyone says the events suit Z, but I'm sure a few of you guys will feel the same in most of the events! | ||

embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | I was wondering if it having been announced for march at such short notice will have an impact on how some guys perform as their prep might not be at the same level as it would have been had wsm been at its usual time. Hoping to see thor and the British lads do well though, as others have said a lot of it could come down to how well the likes of brian and thor squat as we haven't seen them do too much squatting. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | Post Edited: 18.03.2014 @ 16:34 PM by PaulSavage Looked over the events again. Going to say top 6 be..1st - shaw 2nd - z 3rd - terry 4th - thor 5th - burke 6th - pritchett Edit - changed my mind again, such a hard one to call! Going to say tel for 3rd as despite maybe not doing so good in keg toss i think he wins truck pull and thor gets dead last in squat or near as. Will be very close. | ||

I have spoken to him about it all a lot over last couple of weeks and im sure hell be okay Shaw is always prepared . He will squat good , but if Edd and Loz make the final I see him drop to 4-5 place on the squat , of coure Z will win it . For the overall result Z , Shaw and Terry or Thor in that order . Good luck Terry . Stay healthy . | ||

For the overall result Z , Shaw and Terry or Thor in that order . Good luck Terry . Stay healthy . I initially had z for win but if you think about it, with terry clearly in top form and with a 270k front squat, i can see him putting z into 4th on stones, plus on loading, you know shaw is going to be quick training with burke, so i think he drops points on that too and terry could again pip him as well. I think it will be very close but i think shaw wins even though z will more than likelt win the squat. | ||
