    It's like a preliminary opening total for the comp, but your opening weights at the competition must be within 20kg of the numbers you provide for the competiton entry (I think) so you can't put down 400kg as a total and on the day open with 375.

    Neil is more focused than I've seen him in a long time, very excited to see what he pulls out of the bag. Very disappointing that Kevin Darcy wasn't able to make this, fingers crossed he'll be able to commit to it next year with even bigger numbers.

    I think you can still catch him. Maybe.

    Vid from last year but he looks good

    There's also one of a possible 205 snatch. Hard to see the plates.

    A few of Rybakov too.

    Better get Qatari citizenship so.

    I think each nation can set their own qualifying standard. Ireland's is about 350 sinclair or something for 77's.

    Was talking to Wayne last night at training, and he said that Qatar always send a couple of useless lifters so that the officials can go on a jolly! :D

    Damn. I think Dolega is out too, he had shoulder surgery about 10 days ago according to IWF news, so it looks like Klokov vs Akkev for 105s. I reckon g'em is distraught at the prospect of them duking it out :P

    Mens 56kg starting at 20.00 (presumably frog time) so about 25mins. Don't think eurosport is carrying it live though. CCTV5 is at sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/6002 (need sopcast player) but I'm not sure if they're carrying it live either
