Still a tragedy we never got to see Ahola compete into the 00s against Pudz. | |||

MJG said:I am sure Tom will have a great career if he keeps at it but I don't think Eddie is the right person mark him against. His career trajectory is pretty unusual for a top level strongman. If Eddie does win WSM he will be the slowest to progress to that in terms of WSM appearances that I can think of. Even to take 5 years to make the podium is pretty slow. Strongman is a weird sport. Almost as if you're going to be great it happens immediately. Just look at the past winners from the last 20 years - Shaw - Won his third WSM but podium on his second Z - Won his 6th WSM and podium on his third Pudz - Won his second WSM Pfister - Won his fith WSM Virstyuk - Won his second WSM and podium on his first Karlsen - Won his fith WSM and podium on his thrid Virtanen - Won his third WSM and podium on his second Ahola - Won his first WSM Samuelson - Won his fourth WSM and Podium on the third. Shows you are either naturally gifted enough to win or you aren't. Pumping yourself full of drugs and cakes won't close that gap. | |||

Rick said: Nothing like a coherent argument to swing a debate, is there. I think few observers a year ago, positing a string of right wing neo-nationalist anti-immigrant pseudo-racist victories across the west, would have gone on to predict it would stop in France, where the NF has been fairly strong for so long. Congratulations to them. Obviously I'd rather it was someone in power I could actually celebrate, but just as Hillary would have been better than Trump, god knows Macron is better than Le Pen. Jeez. Clinton destroyed Syria, Libya and commenced the coup plot in Ukraine. Still, least she likes gays and migrants. | |||

slow_lift_joe said:Oh yes he wears a tie and a smart suit. Well oiled...slick just what France needs a French Tony Blair. Same old story. And when Corbyn fails next month here in the UK. The good old Labour the party for care and fairness will go right back to a Tony Blair clone, a smart slick suit who could talk a glass eye to sleep and sell a untruth with complete contempt. Before you say it, I am not right wing or left wing. I just want fairness, equity and a realist to run my country. I vote for none of the current crop and do not like to encourage them. If Corbyn were to embrace his own dislike of mass immigration and be vocally anti war on Syria, he'd romp home. | |||

MJG said: Stefan Solvi hasn't had repeated injuries. He had an illness which lasted several years through diagnosis and treatment and then had one bad injury on his return. Nobody worth anything is giving up after one injury. What illness? | |||

beza said:Don't know if it's already been said on here but Stefan solvi has said he's going as an equipment tester/reserve. Hopefully he gets a go, great strongman who's had a lot of bad luck recently, be great to see him back at his best When athletes suffer repeated major injuries it's time to realise the sport isn't gonna yield great returns. |
