Last season, almost all the women on the Replacement List got a spot eventually.

Janna has got two spots now, so she can be crossed out of the list. Lorine Schild will most likely get a TBD host spot for France I guess, same with Mae, i´m guessing they will be crossed of the list eventually.

Gabriella Izzo has switched to pairs and they will most likely represent Canada, i´m guessing she will not be doing singles as well?

I´m wondering if Sarina Joos is allowed to compete this season since she has switched countries to Italy?

Edit: Anna Pezzetta needs to be crossed out as well, she is doing JGP Budapest.

and sometimes they give up hosts spots LOL ... sorry... i had to say it

Finland gave up two men's spot because the only two national team members choose JGP. One pair and two ID pairs who skate at onternatipnal

Sometimes there are not own skaters enough. I don't know about the bigger feds and Finland is the smallest where GP has been hold, I think. Local fed follows "highly recommended" advice with the minimum scores. In pairs there are no more than one at all, in ID no more than two and both age eligible men who could have been selected in addition to Makar S. have chosen to skate at JGP this season.

Canada has tons of skaters available. Finland is different.

How is Isabeau looking? I feel like she's been quiet about her Programs. I believe she did shows this summer, maybe her programs aren't quite done.

She's scheduled to compete this weekend. https://ijs.usfigureskating.org/leaderboard/results/2023/33420/index.asp

I find the schedule very strange. I mean it would be logical to stay in Europe for 2 weeks and only then go to China Anyways, very excited here.

According to this article by the German skating fed, Minerva Fabienne Hase / Nikita Volodin will fill the vacated NHK pairs spot.

Looks like Isabeau WD.

I sure hope it's nothing serious. Has there been an injury report from her team? Did they say why.

I know nothing. It seems like it's been a trend for top skaters to WD from these earlier competitions. Hopefully it's as simple as deciding awhile ago not to compete, but they left her name on the list until the last minute.

With Isabeau i´m not worried, she can even skip early practices at major events and still have clean skates.

I´m wondering though why Lindsay Thorngren has WD from Autumn Classic...

I agree. Isabeau doesn't need a qualifying event, but Lindsay needs a Challenger event.

I really hope someone has a Barbie or Barbie&Ken exhibition program this season.

Where do you find the assignments posting for the updates?

On the ISU entry list for the event, for example here

Where do you find the assignments posting for the updates?

If not already on the ISU entry list, they are often updated first on the Assignment grids that are linked to at the bottom of the main GP page: Men - Women - Pairs - Ice Dance

Or sometimes just through articles or Instagram posts by the skating federations or the skaters themselves.

On FSU there is discussion that Hanns/Neudecker have been added to Skate America
