 embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | PaulSavage said: I would think he has to worry more about felix who i think could beat him. Very possible mark beats him on loading, the vehicle pull is probably arm over arm since it says vehicle and not truck, in which case mark could win, he will win deadlift for reps, obviously loz wins yoke but can see mark maybe 3rd depending on bests form, then last year they were even on viking i think, and mark could win stones if z dont push it. Solvang is very strong overhead and fast but think he got 1 rep on deadlift last year, cant see him doing much on stones, and if it's arm over arm or a heavy truck pull can't see him doing that good that event either. Of course both loz and felix might be totally f**ked because of brits though and best could end up going through. I think that this is probably one of the more interesting groups this year, I can see Solvang and possibly Loz dropping big points on the deadlift to Best and Felix althogh they will both then lose points on the viking, I think that it will be extremely close right through and should be good to watch. Hopefully Loz or Felix will qualify but my prediction would be for Solvang to just edge it. Another factor that may determine who goes through is how much effort Z puts in for the heat and if he comes between the guys going for 2nd on any events. | ||

You cant read too much into the truck pull last year Exactly. Theres no way he's getting anywhere near thor on a heavy truck pull, or any of the other guys who have 100lbs on him and are just as strong if not stronger, cant see it. | ||

Everyone can have an opinion and there is always an exception to the rule. Pudz was always a good truck puller with a lighter body weight than a lot of guys he beat in truck pulls. | ||

 tight in the hole Member 2057, 3121 posts SQ 205, BP 140, DL 260605.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | not sure I see the point in having 12 people in the finals. I predict at least 3 of those twelve will do nothing more than make up the numbers in the final. | ||

Thats not a sure thing though depending on how difficult the group is. Is you put z and shaw in same group, which has happened, then the 3rd place finisher could be 3rd best in world and still finish 3rd in the group. | ||

My asshole is not watertight. Member 2926, 6051 posts SQ 217.5, BP 107.5, DL 225550.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | PaulSavage said: Thats not a sure thing though depending on how difficult the group is.

Plus, I'm sure even these lower placer will have the good events and that may just cause some drama by splittig up the top guys in things like the squat. | ||
