Another day at the Roar

Two days down and lots of great possibilities at the Road to Roar. Top seeds were getting dusted – but that’s no surprise as the seeding was way off to begin with based on recent performance.

Same sort of thing on the men’s side. In C, there’s Jordison, Gunnlaugson, Burtnyk and McAuley. A lot of cashspiel organzers wouldn’t mind those teams as the final four.

I thought Burtnyk might fare better but again, is it a real surprise that these teams are here? This is a tough, tough field and the one in Edmonton will be even tougher.

Sort of goes to prove that the method of selecting the teams is probably pretty good.

So today’s A finals: Kelly Scott vs. Crystal Webster. I’m going with Scott because she’s got more experience.

On the men’s half, I’ll take Stoughton although this one is very evenly matched.

The game that I think is most interesting today is Middaugh vs. Ursel. That will be a barn-burner.
