Spodyriev was apparently in an accident (4 cracked ribs, a collapsed lung, and limited movement of one shoulder on top of a cast on one leg which he had acquired before)
It wasn't Max who had this accident but one of the coaches of their team. However Max was seriously injured during practice in the begining of July and his leg needs several weeks of recovery.

It looks like Popova/Byelikov are moving Senior full time this season. Ukraine Fed announced their Junior GP selection and they are not assigned to any event. Moreover, they are entered in the Senior competition at NRW Summer Trophy.

Sara Buch-Weeke is doing a terrific job today with her Instagram takeover today for @edgesofglory.

She really is giving a good sense of a day in the life (both on and off ice) for herself and partner Nicolas Woodcock.

(Of the takeovers that I seen of various Instagram accounts, some [although no doubt well-intentioned] have shown far less than Sara already has.)

Sara and Nicolas are based in Canada, training with Skate Mariposa in Barrie, Ontario.
One little activity seen in the takeover is that Sara and Nicolas -- who represent Denmark -- singlehandedly are making 500 credential badges for Skate Ontario's Octoberfest competition. Adorable. :ghug:
Sara and Nicolas will be one of thirteen Octoberfest entries competing in junior dance next week. :yay:


Congratulations to Kazakova/Reviya for winning JGP Croatia and advancing to JGPF. :dance2:

I was impressed with the new partnership of Katerina Bunina and Artur Gruzdev.
I thought they had been skating together for longer. I think that they can flourish this season, also given that World juniors will be in Tallinn next year, it would be really nice to see them representing Estonia there. :)

Natalie Taschlerova/Filip Taschler are entered in the Senior event at Open of Andorra next week.
I believe it will be their Senior debut. Minimums for Euros (28/44) could be achievable for them.

New Finnish couple Klinovitskaya/Partanen are set to debut at Sant Claus Cup in early December

I love that Georgian team!!!! Kazakova and Reviya, right? They’re really great! Could they win junior worlds? Are they going to Europeans?

Yep, they're planning to go to Europeans and Senior Worlds as well as Junior Worlds - they definitely have a shot at winning there!! But as we saw here, it will be very close so who knows?!?

France have selected the team for European Championships. They are following the National results.
Papadakis/Cizeron, Galyavieva/Thauron and Lopareva/Brissaud.
In the press release, Lauriault/Legac are not even listed as subs (Wagret/Souquet and Lagouge/Caffa)

https://ffsg.org/europe2020-la-selection-francaise-en-route-pour-graz/

Hungary selected Emily Monaghan/Illias Fourati (146.01 for them and 145.44 for Dozzi/Valdez at 4 Nations Championships)

Finland selected Yuka Orihara/Juho Pirinen who easily won Nationals in the absence of Turkkila/Versluis

Does anyone know what's going on with Lauriault/LeGac? Are they injured?

No idea. If they didn't get selected for the European team, though, and they have a wear & tear type of injury that may need dealing with, then this would probably be a good time to deal with it. (France only has the two spots for Worlds anyway).

And Turkkila/Versluis are listed there too. Hope they have recovered.

Zhata/Lukouski will officially begin to represent Belarus. One of Kolehanova/Palkhouski was on IcePartnerSearch some month ago looking for a partner for next season because the other wanted to retire (but who was who...?), so the competition seems open in this country.

Too bad we're not seeing Turkkila/Versluis at Euros though. Like you, I hope they have recovered.
