US WAG Olympic trials Night 1 Discussion

[ucrgirl]

not good news…

Actually, if Jade is injured that could compromise Riley’s +1. (Please tell me I’m paranoid and panicking needlessly.) Part of the argument for Riley is that even if she isn’t up to filling in on floor or vault it is okay because Jade could cover that.

Time for the chill pills, I guess.

 

[Jack]

Riley is only doing UB.

 

[Doug1233]

Not even beam?

 

[Doug1233]

At this point Jade shouldn’t even be competing. They should scratch her at least for day 1 and let her do bars night 2 for the experience.

 

[QuietColours]

Agreed. Maybe do a dance through on floor, just to have the feel of doing it in a competition setting. She’s got the luxury of taking the time to heal, so do it.

 

[JaJa]

She was seen with some kind of brace on her calf/knee/leg right before warmups.

I really like jade and feel somewhat devastated by this.

 

[gymgirl2018]

and Jade is warming up the 2.5 on vault. what the heck is going through their heads.

 

[Passion]

what the heck is going through their heads.

Probably the information about what is actually wrong with her leg, which they know and we don’t.

[JaJa]

Go Jade!!!

Hey…I actually don’t mind Nastia’s outfit this time. A bit ice queen and the matchy shoes are a bit much, but definitely a fashion step up.

(also OT, I was watching the US T&F Trials and one of the runners in the 1500 was named Tripp Hurt. I laughed)

 

[irichluck21]

Well at least we know one thing…

Jade ain’t making the 4 person team.

 

[Doug1233]

So no Double Pike for Biles tonight?

 

[Kittentoes]

Ok, I very much enjoyed Riley quietly sticker bombing the arena.

 

[Passion]

Biles is starting on UB so we won’t know until the 4th rotation.

 

[Doug1233]

Yeah but she warmed up a Cheng.

[shirai]

Sounds concerning…
