I hope he doesn't. Withdrawing at this point would make him look bad. Even though he really is injured, people would say it was because he wasn't winning.Originally Posted by Icey

Of course! With his injuries right now he probably shouldn't be skating anyway and his ranking only makes it more likely!
Not a bad competition after all. Super skates for the top three guys. Amodio is so cool AND strong at techs. Good to see Brian doing well again. Never give up hope on any skater as long as they don't do it themselves! Go Plushy and all on Sturday
Oh, no!
I guess maybe there was some truth to the rumours that Plushenko was having trouble in practice the other day.
Not surprising. No quad and no 3a? That means he should probably not have been jumping.
Plushenko`s PCS are a huge LOL. That is why I doubt he will dare compete at anything higher than the Europeans again. Scoring at Worlds or an Olympics, even an Olympics in him home country, will be much less charitable, especialy if he skates like that.
The only reason Amodio is leading is he did his 3-3 combo and Fernandez did not. Fernandez beat him in GOE and PCS otherwise. Still Amodio was overscored, more Euroflation. Fernandez would get atleast that score for that skate at a Worlds though. Funny how some skaters were overscored and some werent.
If he competes next season it would certainly make less than no sense to stop at euros?
If Plushenko withdraws, does Bacchini get to skate the long program?
I'd guess so..
Hmm...I wonder what injury this is? Or perhaps the injury is more psychological more than anything else since he was landing his 3A in practice with no difficulty.
Evgeni...Sincerely hope he is fine.
Wheee, Brian!Hope he will win FS!
