Yes, it could be worse but from that panel V/M have Canada and Japan on their side, that's it.

This is not a good panel for V&M. But I thought the Ukrainian judge gave them good marks in the team event. Anyway, I’m sure V&M know that things are not in their favour. I just hope they have two performances they’re proud of!!

It was interesting that the reigning Olympic Gold medalist in ice dance thought their pattern/Choctaw was great, but a bunch of no-names on the technical panel did not.

Is the Tech Panel the same as in the TE?
I checked again and the UKR judges gave them big scores in the FD actually. Maybe she was just being low in SD scores. She was for the shibs vs BS so maybe this is a good sign she's not with RUS FRA

Yes and I also thought Italy did as well.
Huh? I think it's not bad actually..UKR gave them good scores & they have the Canadian judge & US ITA ISR could go there way if they skate clean..why is it that bad?

I’d be surprised if Ukraine went with Russia. At least in the world of international politics, the Ukrainians do like Russia. 
ISR is totally with RUS imo. ITA pretty neutral, and the US judge is Rogers and she hates VM. Maybe if US and CAN are alley for this IE she will change her mind.

Don't they automatically judge the the FD?
WHY is Rogers allowed on the panel then? If it's blatantly obvious she hates V&M this is total bullshit..

I meant that these are not among the 13 judges chosen for this Olympics.
The remaining 4 judges from the 13 that were not selected for the SD (and will judge the FD tomorrow) are from:
China
Poland
Spain
Slovakia
And I don't think any of these are in V/M's corner either.
LisalLemon, this is the kind of scenario that makes me cry inside when I try to tell people that ice dancing is truly a sport.
This article details some of Judge Rogers’s questionable judging:
https://www.thestar.com/sports/skat...ge-toward-judgment-day-at-worlds-dimanno.html
“HELSINKI—To a figure skating forensic auditor, the crick in the scores would leap out immediately.
At the Four Continents championships last month, Canadians Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir — Olympic gold and silver ice dancers, with the top results on the Grand Prix circuit in their comeback season, including the finals title — drew shockingly low marks from one particular judge, marks completely at odds with the rest of the panel.
Indeed, the Canadians were placed fourth overall, behind three American teams.
The judge: Sharon Rogers of the U.S.”

same LOL
Spain is totally in PC's corner
Poland and Slovakia are with RUS I believe?
China destroied them in PCS in the TE but during GPF was pretty neutral
Wow never knew this..thanks for linking it for me, what a disgrace she is, & here she is on the OLY games ice dance panel judging again..what A JOKE!
Well I hope they skate lights out & the judges cheat so bad it's obvious to someone who is blind..
Sorry to hear you might not be watching live.
Even though the odds are not in their favor, I plan to watch V/M live to send positive vibes through the internet
.I just want them to skate their best SD ever and see them happy immediately after their skate.
Come on all V/M fans, let's cheer the incomparable Virtue and Moir in real time! Don't let what ever is going behind the scenes deter us from watching them live in their last competition.
