that 5th end draw for 2 was too conservative...the split to score 3 should have been attempted esp with the outlier so close to the house, it was a high percentage play
1:53 what happens if you hit/remove it but the new stone remains in 'the same place'? (is it automatically also removed, because it is short of the hogline (and the new stone never passed over the hogline first, like the first stone did)?
From the WCF rule book: A stone that does not come to rest completely beyond the inside edge of the hog line at the playing end is removed from play immediately, except when it strikes another stone, in which case it remains in play. So it would remain in play.
Maria Prytz was a beast all tournament, but she made an uncharacteristic misses in this game, at a critical point. Otherwise, Sweden might have taken this one as well.
these sensors are routinely so garbage, they should just sit an official at the hog line and get rid of these, theyve routinely failed since day 1, either completely reconfigure out they work, or just remove them entirely
Commentator says, "I agree with Rachel, you've got to try it". I've watched the video a number of times, and I'm pretty sure it's Tracey who says, "You've got to try it".
what a fiasco. Typical American mentality. This should have been a very simple issue. First and foremost, it should be automatic to stop the rock if the red lights are flashing. How do you screw that part up. Secondly, it's the non-offending teams decision, not the umpires'. Thirdly, how does this take 20 minutes to resolve.?
