End of an era.

The way I see it is

5th place goes first rep
Then 4th place
Then for example 5th place fails after 8 reps
3rd place jumps straight in with 4th place already doing 7 reps.

5th and 4th place are f**ked to be honest...they will have to do a ridiculous amount of reps to get through.

You would assume 4th place would get knocked out fairly easy by third making it a good contest between 2nd and 3rd

Is it really though? If it is then why do everyone use their hands? Seems like needless meddling. Strongman is about moving the weight anyway possible.

It's a bit cheaty to shoulder a fingals finger up imo. The rule change rewards strength.

Damn watching Z beign beaten by mediocre athletes sucks.
Same feeling like watching Levrone at last year Olympia.

Bad decision to do competitions in shape like this. Definitelly takes off his legendary status.

Thor is my choice for this year, as i dont want Shaw to win it. Still think that the magic 5th will stay Mariusz's only.

For how long though - Shaws in for the long haul, think he will set a new record for wins even if thor and eddie win one

Why is everyone shocked by Z? He was lean not long ago and in his 40's.

It's not disrespect to say he's over the hill. He is still strong as f**k, but his time has past.

Z could probably still compete at his very best, but doubt win.

Steve Davis played snooker past his prime, because he loved the game. As much as I wouldn't particularly enjoy Z struggle with guys, who he would destroy in his pomp. If he loves the sport and wants to compete, good luck to him.
