@CaroLiza_fan - Have you taken a look at the list of participants? No offence to the other ladies, but I don't see any way Liza can not win this one. The more important thing is for her to have two clean skates, that boost her confidence, so that she keeps enjoying competing again - and maybe rather look forward to SA... rather than to dread it.

And that is exactly the point I was making. If she didn't win against a weak field, it would be a massive blow to her confidence. And it would haunt her for the next few weeks, if not longer.

Like, in the past couple of years, we've all seen how knocks to Liza's confidence have had a long lasting effect on her.

Plus, there is always the danger of injuring yourself.

But, by the reports about the routines so far, it doesn't look like I had anything to worry about!

machin - you make me laugh. I'm amazed you can hear background conversations - I can barely hear the music! Genuinely, I'm impressed.

Saw this late but happy to make happy
I couldn't hear them very well but my sound was at an absolute max to get the marks so I could catch some sentences.

Is Eveline Brunner Salome Brunner's daughter ? If so, she could have epic choreo !

The live stream in now saying 'Channel Offline' for me. Anyone else with the same problem?

Joubert, Ponsart and the top junior man this year is too, that's the only one I remember.

Livestream off for me too.

 

[machin]

It is a big improvment for Ponsart though because before this he was struck into Dumont's (guess but well...)20 classics Best Of with no interpretation since his juniors years.

Yes...Simon Hocquaux and also Daniel Albert Naurits. Could be worse though, it certainly beats POTO.
