You've not said anything that I'm unaware of frankly. Of course, I know Japan uses clubs and what not. And never have I said they're the same system. Don't put words in my mouth. The genesis of this was about the "independent" slant you brought up in regards to team systems. All my quips with...

The only claim I have made here that most people can hold me to is an argument on semantics and practice. Practice partners Vs Clones. You've had your mouth in everything from the coaches, teams, players to disputing the existence of the rollback of archaic customs and practices. And I've just...

Big man, you have all the references in the world and you're still peddling disinformation on this platform when it suits you. I think self awareness is key here.

if she didn't, so did you just bring those opinions out of your @rs-e?

Tired of seeing Tongtong win impressive slug outs against Hayata/Mima/Miwa and then lose to Yidi or KM in the final. Like Girl! Come on! Get this title!!!

This is cute, Obviously a bit different from the situation I got tangled in not long ago, but I'm surprised we now distinguish between verbatim reports, and opinions. That was exactly what I stood for but I got flamed. Cos when the person in question claimed in a thread that "Rumors say so and...

Repeat whooping Bring? They beat some of the best players. It's clearly their time to be part of the limelight.

Did Fan Siqi tell you Wang Manyu was barred from competing at the worlds, as you insisted, when you ended up being awfully wrong because it was a preliminary list uploaded by the ITTF without the input of the CTTA? Did She tell you Xue Fei qualified for WTT Champions (can't remember the name)...

You can't say that..... That's bullying. You also can't call your compatriot that you've always rooted for all year long a tourist as a joke. Must be bullying!!!

Uhm, sorry to bust your bubble, but nah.

Congratulations to Chang Yu-An

That means needs to whine about the calendar. Don't deny them one less thing to whine about.

Poor Hashimoto and other unsponsored players. We have players alluding to club/JTTA politics leading to prioritisation of certain players but I'm sure some boomer here will tell me the JTTA is independent because muh they don't have a national training camp in Beijing.

LGY looking at you with a puzzled look after being ousted in his last four tournaments by foreigners in the first round with no repercussions. And he's set to appear in other big tournaments this year. I guess Wang Hao didn't get the memo. So current.

Funny how some people here used to wax lyrical about Truls' serve was so clean. A lot of European players do not have the clean serve that you think they have.

Thank you very much.

I wouldn't really say she was put on the back burner. Surely after her heroics in 2016, she alerted the coaches to her potential, but Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha also broke out after her and were faster in rising up the ranks. Such is the fate of many Chinese World Junior Champions. Yu Heyi, Xu...

Damn, that's a scathing takedown of Harimoto's game if I've ever seen one. Even NL that's exceedingly positive about Hari can't help but laugh. I understand what Zeio means though, if not for Hari being always out of his wits against Togami, that bronze was his for the taking.

Harimo is 4 , Togami is ranked 30, HYZ is in the 40s. HYZ was ranked 35-37 ish just last month. There isn't this MASSIVE gap between HYZ and Togami. Gap between them is less than gap between Hari and Shunshuke. 4 and 30 isn't supposed to meet at every other tournament either way but here we...

Lol, you mentioned how you think the CNT likes to bring someone to counter Harimoto recently in the WTTC thread, and it's funny that you think that you noticing odd draw coincidences isn't linked to that. Sounds very silly to me.
