Just got back and it's very difficult to come away knowing anything.

What I will say is everyone is looking bigger and stronger this year, and as such the UK certainly is developing a lot of real talent to take on the world.

The wrestling is PATHETIC. Even most of the crowd very quickly walked away leaving twi once again searching for people to go stand in the crowd. Darren may have injured himself in the wrestling although i'm not sure how serious it is.
The scoring system was a joke and they even decided to change how points were scored for the second group so it shows how much thought had gone into this event by the organisers.

Loz seems to be still in 2nd place in his group and he will have a good fight tomorrow with Dave for that final spot.

The keg toss saw some changes also, They used much smaller barrels and made the bar height higher. No real pattern to this event, Oli had a few problems with technique and Dave meer who seemed to be build all wrong for this did superb.
Rich gorvin did well as did terry

I'll see if I can pull together some more info.

C'mon LOZZA!!

The wrestling does not surprise me at all. Fucking disgrace it's even in. If the crowd, who'll be friends and family as per with just a few local stragglers, were walking away... well that says it all.

Steve i'm sure Loz is still in second place after today. Dave beat him on the toss but Loz beat him in the loading. From what i could gather he as a 2 point lead over dave meer.

I believe Darren and dean were joint ist in the wrestling in one group and I thing Jay won the wrestling in the second group.
Talking to Jay before the wrestling his heart was not in it and he was not looking forward to it at all but as I said in a little pep talk, stay positive jay you never know and sure enough he wins. This may well have placed jay in first place in his group

i`ll try the vaseline in the sock tonight
Had the pleasure of spending this afternoon with Tom,Steve Mot,H ,
Loz (now & again) Maz & my far better half.
Right then here`s my thoughts for what theyre worth.
Beer Keg Fling thing = bollox
Wrestling = total wank bollox.
Like Tom said Colin Bryce decided to change the rules after the
first group had finished in the wrestling.Wot a kin farse.
Keg toss was total shit ,the only highlight was Big Tels 1 handed
attempt which was succesful B)
I couldn`t believe how much some of the guys physiques had
changed.Everybody looked bigger & fitter.
Anybody who gets through to the final should be very proud of
themselves.
Cant wait to go & see the final on wed & thurs.

The last text I got said "don't know how they are going to sort out the scoring in the wrestling.It is a shambles."

Probably nailed on as a WSM event now then.

Yea you could easily have mistaken Ahola for a beach bum.

Oli looks in unbelievable condition and won the first three events. He did not enjoy the keg toss but most of the others in his group also struggled with the event so it did him no harm.
On the viking press Oli pumped out 23 easy reps!!!
Had a quick chat with him and he sure came over relaxed and quietly confident

I spoke to Terry and he felt he was only running at 80% at the moment , Not sure if thats because of pacing himself or what and although leading in his group he'll have to up a gear for the final.

Oli and Loz are looking good to qualify

I left after having a chat to Loz and he said he's got a 1 point lead over Dave due to Oli getting 7 barrells and Dave doing all 10 leaving Loz in 3rd, but still 2nd overall with some good events to come for all of them, tommorrow will be a crackiing day - shitter i've got to work....I feel a sicky coming on!!! B)

I have got some videos but You-tube keeps dicking me around by taking years to upload them :bang :azz

Wrestling and a light, high keg toss. Fucking wank.

Definitely some interesting battles going on in there though. Thanks for the updates y'all.

Deads.

1) Elwood
2) Rich

Not sure about Terry, but he was seemingly just doing the minimum he needed to qualify.

Mark F did come first in the squats.
