That was very nice skate, good on everything
Why didn't they put her into GP?
Because she had a low season's best last year and there were way too many Russians ahead of her that deserved spots.

Congratulations for qualifying to RusNats and good luck at Talinn..hoping for a good SB for Nastya 
Currently the one to beat is Leonovas 194. But I think there is a chance of skaters like Tarakanova and Tarusina (currenly russian nr10 and 11) also getting a score higher than that pushing the 9th score closer to 200.

Yes she needs 200+. So we will see what happens in Tallinn.
Yeah, it really says a lot about Russian ladies that two of the ladies who medaled at their GP events this season with a score of almost 200 points might not get GP events next season because their scores are not good enough to be in TOP 9 among Russian ladies. Both ladies have their 2nd GP event yet to come though.
In any case, there are more ladies who can score big than just Tarakanova and Tarusina, like Sima, Gulyakova (hopefully she will skate at the Golden Spin of Zagreb) and Sotskova. Maybe even Tsurskaya or Panenkova even though this season haven't been good for them.
She is on the entry list for the Golden Spin of Zagreb.

How can Russia have 7 entries? They need to start letting that happen at other events too.
3 is not enough.How can Russia have 7 entries? They need to start letting that happen at other events too.
What do you mean? 4 of them are subs. Any country can name pretty much as many subs as they want but only three skaters can take part to the competition.

They only have 3, the other are subs (S).
RusFed doesn't always fill these 3 spots – look at the entry lists of earlier CS events, e.g. Nebelhorn, which to me is a great pity.
I'm happy for Nastya's assignment. Go get that high SB
Yes. There are defenitely more than just those two who can get close to 200. I just chose them because they where the ones closest of the russians and I think they both have potential for a higher score than they currently got. Can it be true that Nastya got two CS the weeks after one another both Tallin Trophy and Golden Spin?

Yes. Now she has 2 shots at achieving a high SB which is great because hopefully it will not put too much pressure on her in Tallinn as she will know she has another chance the week after.

Let me guess, rhetorical question right?
There's nothing like rhetorical questions
I'm sorry, I won't do this again, I promise.

it has to be frustrating for Anastasia to be sitting on the sidelines while skaters she's better than like Stanislava and Sofia get to skate in major events on the senior circuit. I wonder what she really said she really thinks of the Russian Federation.

She didn't have a high enough SB last year – that's why she's not on the GP circuit. She has a chance to get a high SB in her challengers. Good luck to Anastasia

Thank you for that information. But Nastya finishing 5th at senior Nationals should matter and Sofia finished 12th at senior Nationals that should matter too. But it doesnt. Good luck to Nastya on doing it the hard way. And Gubanova would have done much better than finishing 19th at world's last year like Stasya did if she had that opportunity. I like all these girls its just frustrating how things have worked out for Nastya. Good luck to her in Tallin.
