Yuna received -GOE for her 2A. I don't get it?

From where did you get this info?

I'm not saying she wuzrobbed. I'm saying the scores are about right. If she can get 9s when she's on, 8s doesn't seem that extreme.

That said, I haven't seen the performance so my assessment won't be perfect.

I know you didn't, but others have. Didn't mean to say it was you.

Um, no. Yuna has only received one edge call on her flip in the past and that was back in 2008. She definitely did not deserve the "e" on her flip today.

SBS showed how she scored on each element she executed.

The tech callers are sticklers. I guarantee Gracie Gold will get the same "e."

Huh? Why are your responding to me? I didn't say anything about her flip!

Her flip has a history of edge problem, whether it was 'e' or '!'
Since there's no more '!' she's going to get 'e'
I thought she fixed a year before the Olympics. Strange. Maybe she was nervous and reverted back to old technique.

Her 2A had a difficult entry and from what I saw it was cleanly landed, maybe someone who knows better can explain what was wrong with Yuna's 2A?

I was responding to the general sentiment of this forum. She was definitely underscored today.

I thought that Yuna showed great use of her upper body throughout her program. Her movement was very detailed and beautifully extended. There were no empty spots in her routine. Smooth skating as well. I thought she had the whole package. Yes, she could have shown more emotions and have some facial expression but that's something that was always lacking. I thought it was an excellent performance and I was very surprised to see the marks being so conservative. I think that's because she has skated so early.

This. Finally someone who can appreciate how difficult skating to the music of "Kiss of Vampire" is.

There's a huge difference between being "strict" and simply being "wrong"

I'm probably not that someone, but the only issue I noticed with it was that she rotated leaning a little too forward. For a split second I worried that she wouldn't be able to land it.

Seriously. The 3F I couldn't see the entry to (grainy feed!) but the 2A looked clean and I don't remember her ever getting dinged on that before...?

Well, perhaps you can find a video of her SP on YT later and analyze for yourself.
