who would you like to see at WSM in that group? me personally i'd like to see Jack Mac or Rob go through personally as i dont know anyone else just heard about them


IMO Garry Gardner would have the best chance of doing well in a WSM qualifying group, as he is tall and mobile

fair do's Terry - you ever thought about politicsWink bet you'd get a good few policies through no bother.

as for Garry Gardner i completely forgot who he was until now. and yeas he would be a good pick.

but if Mark Westaby is fit then its going to be hard. - i'm sure its going to be a good comp regardless

Which countries boundaries? Just the ones in Britain? all of them?
Are regional boundaries of more significance than National ones?


The purpose of the comp. is to establish the most suitable candidate for WSM from Britain/UK.

I really can't put it better than Terry,

Regardless of North, South, Midlands, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, England, if you aren't competing against the guys on the list then you are not proving yourself against the best.

Bodypower and other such events provide a great platform for guys to make a name for themselves so if you arent doing that then you will never see your name on a list with these guys.

Promoters have to do what they feel is right these are the best guys around at the moment, ok im sure we all would have our favorites we would like to see in their but it is a good list.

Thats my 2 cents Happy

definitely agree...Westarby on form is a great strongman, was unlukcy not to qualify from his group at WSM last year

If Westarby isnt there, I'd say it will be very close between Ed, Jay, Liam

The log may be Jack's undoing as I'd imagine he'll only hit a couple

Think maybe this is a problem for the Scots in getting the recognition they may deserve. Apart from Ken, I cant think of any guys that actually venture out of Scotland (UKs excluded) to compete! (I know Andys been injured a while)

I've seen a fewer of the lighter guys (Lee compete in Northumberland....as has Snedz), but never seen a comp with Louis McLean, Goose or Cherry in South of the Scottish border

Louis did a few champions leauge comps last yr also a few comps in ireland,cherry also did a team comp with Glen against Rob Jimmy Marku and a few others.
Louis has been busy with other things but will probably get back into it this year.
As for Cherry i agree he should promote himself better instead of waiting to be asked (shy bairns get no sweets).
I know its not an excuse but guys have work commitments and things which could also get in the road.
