Oh dear, this is a very, very stacked women's field. Four national team members, Dina, Kamilla and Lyubov with 3As (depending on Lyuba's health) and Maria with a 4T - I'm afraid making Nationals won't be in the cards this season for a few of these girls

I'm afraid most stages are going to be stacked. Though the second stage looks less stacked so far.

The Fed had to understand there will be a lot of new women. Not bringing the 6th stage back is their fault.

 

[AlexBreeze]

My observations:
1) Where's Anisimova? I know she was preparing for the stages. Though I think I must be grateful she isn't in this bloodbath. But does this mean she has to do two stages in a row? Or they didn't give her two stages?
2) I was wondering where's Agaeva. Was she trying to change to her homeland again or what. Apparently, she was not. She had a finger fracture.
3) Yasmina Kadyrova's health worries me.
4) I also see no Postarnakov in the series unfortunately. Going to try to check what happened to him later.

I assume she will be recovered in time for stages anyways though?

Oh dear, this is a very, very stacked women's field.

I've seen way more stacked, TBH. There are high scorers here but not particularly consistent and a lot of them have drawbacks. I think 2 clean skates will secure a podium easily for any of the favourites, not much more pressure than that. We'll see though, maybe they surprise us.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Doesn't seem so. What's more, she didn't take part in the qualification.

Wow! A whole season over a finger fracture. Catastrophe! Agaeva is a huge loss. We needed all hands on deck for this season.

It looks she still has a hope to appear somewhere.

Can she still make stages on any qualifying tournaments? Could they just give it to her based on reputation?

She says that her FS is lyrical. I really want to see this on the big stage this season. It could make a huge differences for the women's Nats quality to me. She also says she has grown a lot over the break, so I am curious about what she would look like on the ice now.

 

[AlexBreeze]

Could they just give it to her based on reputation?

Moscow often does that but the field is very deep this year. It means that they will have to take a stage away from Zakharova/Kulikova/Sinitsyna/Vazhnova.

So if there is no more qualifications left, as I understand its over for Agaeva. This is devastating. Where would she even compete then? She is from Moscow so would they give her a spot at Moscow finals to show her programs?

 

[AlexBreeze]

Where would she even compete then?

There are a lot of small senior events in the second half of the season.

a spot at Moscow finals to show her programs?

Moscow hasn't its own Cup series like SPb. But there are other events.

4) I also see no Postarnakov in the series unfortunately. Going to try to check what happened to him later.

Daniil! I remember him and his coach from last couple of Nats. Hope they are both ok and that he keeps skating. Let us know what you find out, maybe there is still a chance he will be at some stage.

Also, are there any news about Dima? And Zhenya? They won't be at any of the first 3 stages, so they would only have one chance now to get ready for stages 4 and 5. I was wondering how their recovery was coming along so hopefully this will be possible. I know Zhenya hurt his knee but I'm not even sure what kind of injury Dima has?

 

[AlexBreeze]

Also, are there any news about Dima?

No

And Zhenya?

His team doesn't tend to reveal things but I'm pretty sure he appears in the series. He's training, according to his coahes, everything seems more or less fine.

but I'm not even sure what kind of injury Dima has?

Dima has never said that was an injury.

Glad to hear Zhenya is doing better and things are looking well for him. As for Dima, if there isn't any info on what exactly the problem is or how he is doing now, I'm not sure that's a very good sign....

The women is one entry short. Has someone withdrawn? Will the spot be filled?

It will be filled or it's Safonova's one and we don't know about it yet (since skaters from Belarus are not included to the preliminary entries).
