Real shame for Ed, but it was never a given going into stones.
Yoke always seems to be a problem for him, must be a reason, cos I reckon he probably trains it these days.

Would suck if Koklyaev is injured.


Thor will win WSM some day, just hope not this year lol

After watching WSM for as long as I can remember I don't really think that the qualifiers are that indicative of how an athlete will perform in the finals. I think the top guys know what they need to do in order to qualify and just do what is necessary. I think the final is a different competition altogether.

It's a British strongman forum, there will be a lot of love for the British athletes at WSM, you don't have to pick everything apart for your boy Brian "we all know who the best guy really is" Shaw, who undoubtedly a fantastic strongman and a hot contender.


Optimism for the future I get, optimist view for something that has already happened I find strange. Once it has happened it is what it is.

Brian and Big Z are favourites, but people on here like Terry. He might not have been unlucky not to win it, but he has been rather unfortunate with injuires.

I think terry may have won last year if it wouldnt have been for illness/injury

Whether you think thats blind favouratism or whateva, I really dont give a f**k!

In your opinion Shaw is the favourite. But no-one's opinion but yours seems to be correct

I like Shaw, but I hope he doesnt win, just to f**king shut you up

Well he wouldn't of. Even if he had won rocklift and powerstairs, Z would have still won.

Here are the results

http://www.theworldsstrongestman.com/results/

Z is on 31 points after deadlift, Terry on 26.5...even if Terry wins rocklift and powerstairs(unlikely) he gets 46.5..Z would then of got 8 points in both events leaving him on 47 points.

Logic.

did I not mention him being ill?..."Illness/injury"

Yes, he got injured during, and could not have mathematically won. But he suffered from food poisoning the days before...without that I think he could have won!

Ahh s**t I forgot, there was only Brain suffering from anything to effect his performance last year! Roll-Eyes

Without getting into the whole argument, I'm pretty sure Terry was still recovering from sickness on yoke and so was performing way under par, factor in the rest and he could probably have been fighting for top spot, which I think is what JC was trying to say. But as you say its history now and hopefully this year he will come out on top.

Not totally sure on what days the final events were. But potentially he could of done yoke on the same day as bus pull and deadlift. He won the bus pull and pulled 433kg on the deadlift.
