Gold and Osmond were Top 10 at Worlds
Gosviani didn't even made the Worlds Team
that was a fluke, remember at National competitions she is beaten regularly by 13 year olds Sakhanovich, Sotskova and Medvedeva just to name some.
she can't even win against a terrible shaped Leonova who can't jump a 2 Axel
Gachinski is done period, I will eat my words if he even wins another World medal, even a Grand Prix medal in his lifetime
( April fools came early* if that ever happens). he is like Leonova and Makarova who are both done
Gosviani didn't make the World team because the Russian fed wouldn't dare not send Leonova, the reigning World silver medalist. Also, Sakhanovich skated amazingly and would have medalled if not for the SP.
As for Gachinski, yeah, he did horribly at Worlds last year, but he won silver at Europeans - ahead of Fernandez, and won World bronze the year before. His GP season has been bad, but he was okay at Russian nationals and is clearly capable of doing quads and axels still. You might just be eating your words...
That being said, I didn't consider Gachinski or Gosviani stars, not because of results, but just because they don't have the "it" factor, IMO.
