Just recapitulate how this (again) appeared. The only thing I did was I said that considering how strong her jumps were I doubt she would not aspire to gain quads, because I don't know why I should consider her as quadless for next olympics when we are on the field of considering potential strength of the skaters in the near future. There are opinions about how this or that lady will be stable, what is her potential atc., so I feel completely free to express an opinion about Alina's potential to gain quads. On that statement I don't see anything bad, offensive to anyone etc. that would require such unnecessary (but usual) senseless reaction that anybody gets whenever he makes any positive consideration that matters to Alina (the only PR Alina ever got were her own victories despite predictions "she should retire"), to which I replied the way it deserved. Also I didn't speak about what which any team said, just how some members of the fanbases talk.
Frankly, I have no idea what you want. The discussion of this thread is about the power ranking for THIS season. Since Alina explicitly stated that she won‘t introduce a quad this season, it‘s no use discussing it here, IMO. Whereas someone like Rika has stated she’d like to include the quad in her program as soon as the GP season, so that’s a pretty different scenario. This doesn‘t mean Alina can‘t ever do a quad or doesn‘t have the potential to. But discussing this would be more of a place for the general Russian ladies thread.
My own comment was merely to point out that contradictory to what you claimed, there is no lady who is said by the forum or fans to have a “perfect quad salchow“.
As for what this thread is really about
- power ranking for this season: I expect to see Sasha firmly on top due to her sheer unbeatable BV with other girls such as Rika or Alina (Maybe Anna or Liza) being able to challenge her should she make mistakes or should Rika introduce the 4S and land it cleanly alongside her 3A.
