Unless there will be the Second Coming we all know who will take Gold and Silver, so let's concentrate on the only medal that is contested in Olympics for RG |

Unless there will be the Second Coming we all know who will take Gold and Silver AND BRONZE.
And she is Aliya Garaeva from Azerbaijan. _________________ the sixth sense |

I think it all depends on how fair will be judges..
With unfair judges we'll see Kanaeva, second russian and Garaeva...not matter how they perform!!
With fair judges and no errors in execution we could see a more unpredictable podium!! Even if I think Kanaeva will win in both situations..
Plus, if Viner decide to send Merkulova, (and if judges will be fair) I think we could see no second russian on the podium..just as it happened in Beijing with Kapranova!!
Personally, I just hope to see Charkashyna or Staniouta on the podium!! |

I also would love to see Charkashyna or Staniouta on the podium! If they perform well, they are at the same level of Garayeva, in spite of the unfair scores they get (Melitina especially)!
But I think Garayeva will get the bronze. Which is ok, for me, if she performs well (I like her and her routines, except for clubs). |

Third place would be great for any of these - Garaeva, Charkashyna, Miteva.
For some reason I think it's not likely for Staniouta to get the bronze... unless all three I mentioned above make huge mistakes and she has the most outstanding performance ever in her career... _________________ the sixth sense |

OMG, are you still hoping for fair judges? are we still at this point? judges are NEVER fair, nor will be! EVER! Ok it is OG, but the only thing they are going to do to pretend to be fair is to stop this new stupid scoring fashion of 29.500-30.000 for russians. That's it, but still kanaeva will get the highest 28s, the silver gymnast middle 28s and the bronze low 28s.
You all know who the bronze will be, Garaeva, as long as she doesn't drop any apparatus so the audience won't get bothered if she gets a medal, she'll get bronze.
And probably by a difference of 0.025 above the 4th gymanst, we already know how judges love to do this tricky things with numbers, and let a gymnast win over the next one by a ridiculous 0.025 margin They just love to spice things up. |

Who will get the bronze medal? Probably Garaeva. Who should? Charkashyna. I think she should be silver, actually, and in my wildest dreams, Maximenko would bring back her old hoop routine and get bronze XD _________________ My youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/xxJodelleFerlandxx?feature=mhee

the 0.025 margin thing reminds me of the Ribbon Final in Minsk! It was one of the closest results I had ever seen! (well, except for the two Russians..)

Well Kanaeva will win no matter what. Even with mistakes, she barely gets any deductions. If Daria happens to compete better than her and still places second, I'd be upset... (even though I'm used to it haha). Third place... at this point I'd put my money on Garaeva. Surely auntie Viner will work her magic once again. _________________ ♥ Bessonova, Kondakova, Dmitrieva, Rizatdinova ♥ |

Let's remember that scores for individuals in Beijing were fair enough!! I just hope this will happen again..and this time for groups too!! |

I personally think Miteva deserves to place third (if the two Russians get first and second), her routines are amazingly difficult, sometimes I don't get why her difficulty score is so low compared to Kanaeva, who wouldn't be able to do half of Silvia's tricks, handling-wise. _________________ ♥ Bessonova, Kondakova, Dmitrieva, Rizatdinova ♥ |

That's why it is more difficult to get high points with D2 than D1, I think!! |
