Be careful about relying upon the rosters until the event starts -- the grid for dance was updated the other day for Drobiazko/Vanagas' withdrawal and the substitutions at SA and SC, but the rosters were still showing D/V on the them.

The rosters were updated on 8/11. Drobiazko/Vanagas have been replaced at both SA and SC.

I ALWAYS use the ENTRIES files as the first authority on who is in and who is out. The rosters tend to be updated secondarily.

I am glad Lambiel is in this event. If he is healthy it will be a pretty easy win for him against this field. The womens will feature a real Japanese battle. The pairs will feature a head to head duel between Shen/Zhou and the Zhangs which should be interesting to see what happens in.

Yang/Gao have been the #1 team in China in 2001 and 2003-5. They were 22nd and 23rd at the 2004 and 2005 World Championships, and10th, 6th, and 10th at the 2003-5 4C's

ISU Bio

I thought they had retired after not winning an Olympic qualifying spot at Karl Schaefer. Yu/Wang placed 7th at 4C's and 22nd at Worlds last year.

According to their bio, Wang/Meng didn't compete last year. Huang/Zheng competed in Juniors last year and placed a respectable 10th at 4C's.

I guess they "unretired."

ISU Pairs Roster (9/12/06) for GP NHK:

Galit Chait / Sergei Sakhnovski (ISR) have withdrawn from both GP assignments, Cup of China and NHK.

Speculation abounds but not much in the way of facts. Ideas anyone?
