2019-20 Russian Ladies' Figure Skating

[Jontor]

To me it is very simple. If Sasha has a fever she shouldn't skate at all. WD. Walk over. Done.

But do we really know what's up with Sasha? This sick talk, where does it come from?

 

[Nord Stream 2]

I‘m sorry, I do not understand. Zhenya moved them at the Gala? What do you mean?

As for the rest... I don‘t believe Sasha is stupid. Looking up to Zhenya doesn‘t make her stupid. Then again, she said that a few seasons ago when she was still a junior, that one of the reasons she came to Eteri was to train with Evgenia. Maybe this has changed and Zhenya’s not her direct role model anymore, she’s 15 and has grown a lot after all; things like that change, that‘s normal and totally okay. What I do think is nice is that the girls seem to get along so well, they‘ve shown nothing but sportsmanship so far. Makes me very happy as a fan.

As for Zhenya fans not accepting criticism... you know, I can only talk about myself here but for me it depends on the kind of criticism. If I see it as genuine, well-meant advice and criticism, I‘m totally open to it and like discussing it! You should have seen me freak out in Zhenya‘s fanfest when I thought Brian and her had gone back to the 3 3Lz layout. I was so angry at them it was quite embarrassing. So, anyway, I disagree that Zhenya fans in general are not able to take criticism. I, and I think many might agree with me here, personally just don‘t appreciate when comments are belittling, condescending or downright mean. Some of them in this thread are, unfortunately. This is what I don‘t like and will speak up against. That‘s all.

Is that criticism?

Admit how many times you made me a voodoo doll and pierced it with needles?

Did Sasha say she’s sick? When?

Okay, news flash, Sasha never said she's sick. I'm not sure why people keep claiming this, although, no confirmation was done whatsoever.

Sasha will be skating tomorrow for sure. Healthy or sick.
She will win even on one leg.

Puberty may begin next year, and then Kamila will come.

Alright, chill out. Just because nobody has answered your question yet doesn't mean anything.
I do not know the answer, I just know lots of people were already talking about it

 

[Mishaminion]

Speaking of Sasha

Has anyone noticed how good her 2A was? Much much better than before.
I wonder if this means her 3A is progressing nicely?

I'm super chill
I read the news articles on all major sport websites, in absolutely 0 of them anything bout being sick is mentioned.
Someone said it once, people carried over to keep saying that, and here we go, we get a 'it must come from somewhere', 'lots of people said that' kind of rumor.

TAT says the same thing. There are other secret sources ...

 

[Jontor]

The skating order tomorrow.

The last three will be Medvedeva, Bell, Trusova. In that order.

God help the rest of them if she gets a stable 3A

Everything works out fine for my theory )))))))

Maybe it is.
I only assumed it was correct because I thought she looked a bit "off" myself

 

[Nord Stream 2]

Do you think it is in HIS power?

 

[Mishaminion]

Do you think it is in his power?

Probably not, no. Maybe he fears Sasha too

 

[Fluture]

Do you think it is in his power?

I don‘t think ANYBODY can stop her from learning that jump if she wants to.

Is that criticism?

Criticism of whom or what exactly? Of Brian and Zhenya? If they had indeed included 3 3Lz in the program again, yes, I would have criticized that. If that‘s what you‘re asking, otherwise I might need you to specify.

Here I‘ll have to admit that I again don‘t quite understand the question you‘re asking me, though. What exactly am I supposed to admit having done with voodoo dolls? I suppose it‘s metaphorically spoken but let it be said that I don‘t like voodoo dolls in any way. They‘re creepy.

Well, if she‘s healthy that‘s good for her and makes everything clearer. Then the only question will be whether she manages to land all 4 quads with positive GOE.

Сonspiracy theology.

Sasha pretends to be sick and simplifies the program or easily falls.
Zhenya wins. Final of 5 Russians.
Rusfed shows everyone in ISU that if necessary, Russians can play as a team (girls can calculate their TSS + - 1).
And next year we will win everything in general and everywhere in this way.
Or everyone should close their eyes when we need it.

she was over it a long time ago, mkay.
I find the implications that Eteri would do anything 'for'/'against' Evgenia to be quite ridiculous
Eteri only does what's best for her students, the rest is not her concern.

Mkay.

No matter what's going on tomorrow it will be very exciting and interesting.

I don't know but i have a feeling Eteri would mad as hell if Sasha doesn't beat Zhenya.

Remember 4 years ago when Evgenia lost to TAT's favourite Elena Radionova at Rostelecom Cup, Eteri was stone face all the time.

I thought that for all my past statements about Brian and Zhenya and about their joint work, you have long made a doll in my guise and pierced it with a needle.

 

[Jontor]

Did I mention today how much I loved Nugumanova's skate at Warsaw Cup?

Here it is...

I just love her. She has personality, she has style, she's just my kinda girl

I think she did not like the judges in the first place. She felt powerless. Now she has gained credibility. She had already broken so many walls that such a trifle would not greatly anger her.
