MP_MFC Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 BBC not showing the curling again? Ski Jumping which has as far as I can tell, no GB interest instead. Brutal considering this is a marquee match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's on Eurosport player but I think you need a subscription to watch. ETA it's on iPlayer now.

peasy23 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Thought that was a poor choice of shot by Eve there that ultimately let Canada take both GB stones out and get a 3. Canada 4-1 up after 5 ends. Going to be very tough to come back from that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignoramus Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 I’ve never been convinced Muirhead has it in this company, the opening five ends of this haven’t acted massively against that. I’m not sure the Canadians are actually playing that well either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure the Canadians are actually playing that well either.They aren't, but their skip has played brilliantly. They've also had a few lucky breaks with stones just managing to hang on the edge of the rings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 But she doesn’t make 2 in a row and draws for 1, Canada lead by 3 going into the last end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP_MFC Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 All bar the Canadian skip have played average at best and that’s reflected in the score. Just can’t see how we can get 3 here based on what’s happened before. The Canadian nicking one when it could have quite easily went 4 to us was the swing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 A 7-3 defeat, all came down to Canada's skip playing better than everybody else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donathan Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Muirhead and co almost certainly need to win their last 3 now. There’s an outside chance 5-4 would be enough but they’ll need all kinds of help for that. Cant see them beating Japan tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest all three remaining matches are definitely winable - including Japan. Problem was throwing away good positions v Switzerland and S Korea. Quite a number of matches between the top teams remaining so not a stretch to think 5-4 could take them through.....however, I do believe they will win all three. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s actually a scenario where even 6-3 isn’t enough. It involves a 4-way tie with Canada, Japan and Switzerland for three places (with Sweden topping the group at 7-2) Rather annoyingly this scenario happens if every remaining game goes according to world ranking, so we are relying on someone springing a bit of an upset even if we win our games out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that scenario would they not be above Japan - as to win all three we must beat Japan and therefore would be ahead on the ahem head-to-head 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other two are 2-1 so would be 2nd and 3rd in the standings. Then the last spot goes to Canada since they beat us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
