So Laguta scored 16+1 yesterday and still no wild card.

At this point just take it up with Putin personally?I'm sure he'll rethink his actions if he knows they can't participate at the highest level in a sport he's never heard of!

It ain't happening, there's more chance of me bedding Dua Lipa then the Russians getting a call up while a war is on, move on.

He should definitely be in . World championships should include the best competitors. And he’s one of them no question

I'm not a fan of how they pick wild cards or reserves (free for all) so would rather the picks be based on:

Average GP score (if injured)

Next in line from GPs / qualifiers / SEC

Top scorer in SWC / SON

Highest average in Polish Extraliga

SGP2 Champ (reserve spot not wild card)

So I won't complain about Janowski as he was next in line in SEC (not fair for Aussies / Yanks though).

I can't say I'm too unhappy with Janowski. While he's hardly an inspired choice, and isn't the most exciting, he's no worse than Thomsen/Kvech/Michelsen, etc, etc. It's quite surprising how big the drop off is from Lindgren/Holder/Bewley to the 4th pick, usually there's some youngster or someone having an exceptional season that gets mentioned, but there's nothing out there.

At 24 Kvech is still a youngster in GP terms which would make him my preferred choice.

Janowski is old hat and way past his best, not a very inspiring pick at all.

I also wouldn't be against him, I think he's better than people give him credit for. It'd not be a surprise if he's first reserve (or thereabouts).

I think Kvech has done well enough to be picked on the reserve list. Expect him to be near the top with no Czechs in the GPs

The relief at seeing Janowski just miss out qualifying through the SEC didn't last long then.

So Wroclaw will have 3 riders in the GP Series.

Bewley, Kurtz and Janowski.

Who is missing?

If you go to www.drumsareus.ru you’ll be able to buy a new one as you must have just about beaten that one to death

The Oxford version was terrible.  Awful choice

Can't say I'm thrilled at all on this pick.....definitely "washed up" now for lack of a better definition.

All I can assume is Poland dug their spurs in someone and made it a Pole.
