this week-end it was national championships in France and Nat and Fab was second so why Carron/Jost ??? (even i like them i don't understand)

Nooooooooo it's not possible
For me it's a non sense too Ohh... Why? Why? I like Nath and Fabian, they're not my favourite ice dancers, but I like them, I'm very disappointed to hear that Is it sure, Aline?

albena and max 4 ever

Quoi? Je ne comprend vraiment pas! Ils ont fait leur premier podium cette saison au Skate America!!!
je suis dégoutée En plus leur libre cette année est vraiment original!

They want Pernelle & Mathieu at Euros and Nathalie & Fabian at Worlds I guess it's better than nothing

http://www.eurosport.fr/tpfullpage_sto1025350.shtml

It's so silly, with Nath and Fabian the French Federation might have gotten three spots for Europeans next year. That is an absolutely insane decision.

I'm very disappointed too but it's sure !
I think french federation is once again very stupid !
Poor Nat and Fab ! Their free dance is my favorite this season (except albie and max of course) they are very original !

France has only 3 senior dance team, 3 places at european would be perfect

I don't understand this at all!!! Does the Federation has a really good and plausible reason for doing this!? Or it is only a "personal" and subjective choice?!

So bad I would have loved to see them skate...Damn!

As I have written in French Corner (and in the Nath & Fabian's topic), I really don't understand. French Federation is stupid and that's not new.
And do you know what ? Today, I have read an article in a sport magazine, and there were a lit of all the French federations in all sports. And of course, FFSG (Ice skating french federation) was the worst federation in France... Why am I not surprised ?

As for Nath & Fab, I have they will do something to go to Euros, to make an objection.
I just can't imagine how is the atmosphere in Lyon, where our 3 senior pairs train...

Well, I don´t understand the French Fd either.
I´m so thrilled..
I can hardly wait for this Final!



BESOS!!

I read something about Belbin/Agosto, that it's possible not to go in St-Petersbourg for the final.
Somebody know about it, or am I dreaming ?

Agosto injured his back and he and Belbin had to withdraw from the GPF...it's said that he'll be skating again after 1-2 weeks of physical therapy...I may not be a huge fan of them, but this is sad...

Ok, thank you Lyra for telling us more. Even if I don't like them a lot, I hope that Ben will go better soon ! It's not a good thing for them to withdraw from this competition...

Yeah, it's for sure already.. Yana & Sergei replace them. I can say I'm not pleased to hear that, but.. ok.. I prefer Belbin & Agosto to compete.. now it's going to be easier for Oksana & Maxim to reach the podium + two last places are obvious.

5. Melissa & Denis
6. Yana & Sergei

luv,

Oh, Lera, and I believe Yana and Sergey can as well finish 5. They are worth. really.

I can think of worse people that Yana and Sergei and Belbin and Agosto...Navkos for one, and G/G... If he is hurt...I at least hope he will get better and not chicken out of worlds...

Wonderful draw! GO ALBENA AND MAXIM!

actually somebody said that it is not a draw. It is an order determined by the points each couple have accumulated in ascending order
