Without doubt I would arrange a comp date around when he is available/willing to come along! | ||

You need to patent the 'Sanderson Scoring System'. And to be fair having met you both it's clear your dads the talent....  | ||

 Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | Just got back from the comp. Whilst there are obviously things that people will want to talk about with the running of comp, the first thing worth pointing out is that big respect is due to all athletes that lifted today. It was a f**king long, HOT day. I was sweating just helping the guys out with their equipment etc. Those boys put it in all day long and are a big credit to the sport. A few things to clear up to ease speculation: - As woods already qualified as defending champ it was 2-11 that qualified automatically. - Marsden isnt doing UKs as he has GPC worlds so Millsy gets the invite as 12th place lifter. There are far too many great performances to mention and I will likely miss a lot of very impressive stuff but a few things that stick in the mind: - Cleggy and Hixxy were f**king awesome and I see no reason why they cant be competing for numero uno at UKs. - Ben and Cleggy battling on the deadlift was quality. To see Cleggy pull for the win without even a soft belt on was insane. - The guy who won his place last week (Ben) was very very consistent and fooking strong. Definitely one for the future. This guy was seriously good. - Bish was pretty f**king consistent too. His Conans was something else. Me and Traps were speculating how good he was at Conans and whether he could win it, after half a turn we both decided no way only to see the c**t go another 3 turns with it. His squats were sweet for a lanky f**ker too. As I said, too many to mention them all, but those were some of the absolute highlights. | ||

Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | It was also great to hang out with Millsy, Ben, Hixxy, Cleggy, Traps, Sam etc. Always good to see the fellow Sugdeners and they should all be proud of their efforts. Traps was funny as f**k all day long. BUT, big shout out to my old mucker Joni. The effort and attitude he put in today was top notch and to see the progress he has made over the last few years is nothing short of awesome. Great work matey. Although getting first aid from the St Johns Ambulance people for a popped spot was perhaps my highlight of the day | ||

Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | Oh, an Robbo did well. I wont patronise him because he knows that he can do a lot better than that on some events but to be honest, that shows just how f**king good he actually is. Definitely one to watch for UKs! | ||

 A World class farmer Member 576, 3429 posts SQ 350, BP 200, DL 400950.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | While this comp has received a lot of negative press (and rightly so in some cases) i feel this: This is my thoughts copied from my journal: "Yes the comp ran for a long time and there was no scoreboard BUT there were 18 athletes after all using specialised equiptment that meant head2heads were not possible. Craig was working nonstop today and had to do far too much himself. Rob and Ash loaded and reffed the comp well IMO and while there have been several negative comments on the comp's running (and rightly so in some cases) I hope they do not detract from the hard work put in from said people. Afterall the events were great." - (Bishop 2010) Yes a scoreboard have been nice and yes the scales were a little light but i hope that these factors will be taken as constructive critisim and lessons learnt for future competitons afterall guys competitions can't be perfect. And i understand peoples comments about a national comp etc. Massive thanks to craig, Framps and Ash. They worked extremely hard today and i hope they get the gratitude they deserve even inspite of the negative comments. I for one appreciate you're efforts. | ||
