'THE NIGHTMARE' Member 5255, 290 posts SQ 220, BP 195, DL 240655.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq | I wonder if Shaw is going to retire after this? I think the shortened format doesn’t suit him at all, but I think he’s probably past it anyway. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Post Edited: 17.06.2019 @ 11:17 AM by Mikeneto I don't think Shaw will retire. Lots of positives to take away from the comp as a whole.In the heat Good truck pull Good deadlift Good dumbbell Farmers and yoke also went well Final Squats were good OH was good Stones went well At the moment he is strong but slow. it will suit him in other comps more such as the Arnolds. | ||

old age traveller Member 332, 7865 posts | WILLSAN said:the thing is when you start meddling with things as tv shows do, not only does it ruin it as a sporting spectacle, it makes it worse as a tv show too. case in point, one of the best athletes in the field not making the final. although it is a tv show, it needs to take the viewers with it as a sporting contest. if you mess with rules and fair play too much they will catch on and switch off. something which will be accelerated in an age where people communicate online and dont have to be spoon fed whatever is on the tele. 'shows' only work if you keep up the illusion and all the social media comments slamming the comp suggest it might be slipping. I agree in principal, however the mere fact the organisers screen it as entertainment at christmas rather than a live or soon after to me shows how little regard they have for strongman as an actual sport. We could have this same discussion year after year and I try not to get dragged in. Remember its just a but of fun telly. (sad but true) | ||
