Hi All and in case anyone missed it

I wish everyone a very happy new year!!

So I so far agree with everything our beloved leader of the Tim has said !

Hoshoryu, his two bouts have looked like a fight to the death, in that I mean it looked like really hard work.

Onosato looks weak, today he looked relieved to have come through unscathed

It’s a crashing disappointment!! Despite their wins, I agree that at this point I can’t see either Yokozuna finishing the week

They both are Rattled by Aonishiki and now realise they have two Ozeki trying to put them down.

Aonishiki is absolutely oozing confidence it is literally dripping off him, he also displays and commands respect in every corner and he’s getting it, for one so young he is displaying a “ you will bend to me” and they are!

He steps in and his face says “ I win “ out you go and they dooo !

Daiesho is extremely strong and aggressive and well we are now seeing Kotokazura in a whole new level, he’s looking sharp, developed and very aggressive, he is just putting them down, he’s aiming for Yokozuna we know it, they know it and the two Yokozuna know it, we also have Wakatakakage making his play for Ozeki now as well.

Tamawashi looks strong, but I worry how long he can keep going before he god forbid gets really hurt

Midorifuji has some difficult decisions to come, I know it’s only day 2, but it’s not promising is it?

Hakunofuji is one to watch, I had hoped a bit more of Yoshinofuji but we will see

And lastly Atamifuji he does look strong but I do think he reacts to what’s going on around the ring with the other Rikishi he lets it get into his head , we saw this last year when Terunofuji suddenly announced retirement, Atami for about 6 months couldn’t pull himself together!

Any offers on someone willing to give the two present Yokozuna a good kick up the butt ?

I can’t stand the thought of Mr Insufferable told you soooo
