so Leanne, Ellie and Bacskay? Isn’t that 10?

 

[MaryClare]

What a massive shit show. I’ll watch this on Match rather than BBC. Lidia Ivanova won’t hold back.

 

[Gymfan93]

so Leanne, Ellie and Bacskay? Isn’t that 10?

Two out, three in makes 9

 

[MaryClare]

so Leanne, Ellie and Bacskay? Isn’t that 10?

No. Ellie replaced Roberson

 

[tempest]

duh… still half asleep

 

[RAFIKI]

What a mess. Screwing with the Voss floor place as well.

 

[RedBirdie]

FIG clusterfuckery. Never change.

I’m going to depend on you all to provide updates. I’ve got kiddo baseball this morning.

 

[Gymfan93]

Yeah, FIG need to clarify the Paris spots quickly

 

[RedBirdie]

Anyone seen video of the injury? “Freak thing” or “the injury we’ve all been waiting to happen because she twists every Cheng right into the mat”?

Yeah. It was on the tv coverage as was during the TF warm up. Basically that

 

[Matilda23]

Does anyone have a link of Jess’s injury on vault?

 

[MaryClare]

Yeah, FIG need to clarify the Paris spots quickly

The simplest way is to allow Csenge to compete in the event final, due to their fuck up but stipulate that it will not facilitate any Olympic qualification

 

[MaryClare]

Does anyone have a link of Jess’s injury on vault?

No. According to Alice Kinsella it happened in the warm up gym

Yeah but who wants simplicity?

 

[J175]

So the FIG have just awarded an Olympic spot by mistake?? How can that happen??

This is a weird situation because it involves two gymnasts from the same federation so I don’t know how much Szekely will protest, but if they were from different countries this would be really messy.

and she didn’t actually qualify, she only made the final due to someone who actually qualified dropped out

 

[Gymfan93]

and she didn’t actually qualify, she only made the final due to someone who actually qualified dropped out

And if it hadn’t been an American dropping out the situation wouldn’t have happened like this (with the mix up, at least)

 

[J175]

Also it’s a good job Sarah Voss should beat Meolie Jauch on the tiebreak for the third German spot, because if not this mess would involve four countries.

 

[MaryClare]

Very muted audience response for Dolgopyat.

Literally the most Belgian thing ever, not knowing how to feel about a Ukrainian Israeli

 

[MaryClare]

Is it true that none of the live streams have started yet? It’s been on Match Arena for 15 mins. Yulo has just finished
