Donathan Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 My early feeling is we look more up for it. Could all change though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasy23 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Random question, but why did they ever come up with 38 minutes for the game clock? Was 10 x 4 minutes just too simple? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You often get a feeling with curling who has momentum. I feel GB look more controlled and Japan seem chasing the game. Early days but if Eve can get 2+ with this hammer it's a great start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Anyone else get the sense that Rhona absolutely hates Steve? Nice start to the game only could have been improved by a 3 in the 1st. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was 10 x 4 minutes just too simple? I think because it's rounded up from 30 minutes for 8 end games which are more normal in amateur level, although rare to have a shot clock. I can count on one hand the number of 10 end games and timed tournaments I've played. Edited February 20, 2022 by flyingscot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Good stuff for the first half. One thing Im a bit disappointed by is having watched lots of curling disappointing not to see anyone fall on their arse on the ice. If one of the Japanese ladies could humour me, that would be appreciated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscot Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Great work. Japan really should have made that but the steal is great. One of the funniest things is Rhona tactfully correcting Steve Cram. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange to think that only a couple of months ago both these teams emerged from the olympic qualifying event (Scotland did become European champions a few weeks earlier in December though) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peasy23 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Japan certainly not giving themselves much chance of a multiple score by allowing GB to have lots of stones in the house. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the alternates, can they only be used to replace an injury or can they be used for tactical reasons? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
