Btw, Stolbova/Novoselov withdrew from Golden Spin of Zagreb because they never showed up to the competition. I'm assuming she is still ill.
They are not coming back, this thing is hard and the pressure is too much.
Edit: I am not an insider, didn't mean to be harsh, it just seems that way. Happy to be wrong if possible.
It's just ooooone competition
Why, they are very slowI hope this medal will get M/G get a PCS pump
Why, they are very slow
As you said: technically. This is TES, not PCS.yes I know they are slow, but speed can be taught with experience but consistency and mental toughness is difficult to teach. They are technically ahead of B/K and P/K.
They will fight it tooth and nail and if that does not work they will put on their own Russian OGs.I'm very nervous for the decision on Russia's fate on Monday from WADA, I have a very realistic fear for a blanket ban for Russian athletes.

They are fighting it tooth and nail, from what is going on behind the scenes...
Everyone can see the Pyeongchang punishment didn’t work at all! So what else is leftI'm very nervous for the decision on Russia's fate on Monday from WADA, I have a very realistic fear for a blanket ban for Russian athletes.
THe GP final is a nice distraction....
Is there any chance that they could skate for Australia?I'm very nervous for the decision on Russia's fate on Monday from WADA, I have a very realistic fear for a blanket ban for Russian athletes.

Well, losing the funding would be really difficult but it wouldn't even be a full season they'd have to sit out, would it? Their last international competition was last month so they'd miss the GP next season but they'd be back by 4CCs and Worlds next season if RusFed gave them their release now. Sure, it would hurt to miss the GP next fall but they'd certainly be competitive for top 4-5 at 4CCs, which is at least on par if not better than where they'd be as Russia 3 right now, and they'd go into Worlds as Australia's top team.No, they would have to sit out a season to skate for Australia and they would lose their Russian funding.

If Russia would release them at all. Russia didn’t release a junior pair girl without any proper results, why would they want to release their number 3 senior dance couple?No, they would have to sit out a season to skate for Australia and they would lose their Russian funding.
An Olympics without Russia just sounds so boring, aside from my own emotions concerning this whole thing which are probably too heightened and borderline irrational at this point to try to put into words.

I understand your emotions.
I found it hard to see athletes compete in the last olympics who have already served doping bans, yet Russian athletes who had not served doping bans and had not failed any doping tests were not allowed to compete.
