Are you really surprised!? :laugh:

Superb skate, but a lot of tight elements. Still deserving of the win.

Of course I am surprised when a pair get really really good GOES for a Jump, when the Hand is down!

And yes, they deserve to win, but do you think, it is right to get + GOES for that throw??

Hmm V/T a little underwhelming? I love this partnership - they really are a golden team but a few little wobbles? I'll be happy for any team that gets it tonight - I like all of them :)
The other Russians were better, IMO. GOE should have been much higher for them. Interested to see protocols.

Hand down on 3STH and second foot on 3LTH - and no negative GOE???? SORR, but that is not right!!!!

My commentator just said he looked on the protocols and they were downgraded a lot, lost almost 5 points... The door is open for Aliona and Robin!!

Weak sbs jumps, as expected, sadly. I think they'll miss the podium.

FS: 67.62+68.96 = 136.58, 209.88, in 3rd (out of 15)

So, so beautiful. Here I am crying again. So sad that it won't medal (likely) and I still feel they should have won bronze in 2006, but - that was glorious. that was so beautiful.

No, I meant that they get + or 0 GOE for throw problems anyways. Not right, but doesn't affect the outcome anyways.

ok, let V/T win but with THAT judging and marks...Especially with regard of a stellar and freaking clean performance from Ksenia and Fedor, this is simply disgusting and carry away the beauty and spirit from this sport. They should be scored slightly above Ksenia and Fedor even be beaten by them today...

Stolbova/Klimov get a medal! All Drama-Button-needed scoring controversy aside, THAT is one thing I'm glad for.
