    I’d be interested to know what the latest stats are on qualification from 2nd – I know it used to be surprisingly OK but that might have changed since the producer led draw, where they probably put no hopers there deliberately.

  2. Philip Newton says:

    Interesting chat as ever. I always think of the semi finals like a formula one qualifying. You only have to come top 10 to get through, but you really need to be top 4 to gain the momentum for the win, whether that be through performance or media coverage.

    It seems like the site mainly focuses on podcasts now, which is too bad. I just don’t absorb info well just on audio plus I think many of us don’t really feel like spending a half hour listening to talk.

    4porcelli, we have upped the podcast content over the last month, but rest assured we’re not leaving the written content behind during Nationals or looking forward to May, we’ve got a lot of in-depth and discussion/thought pieces in the article pipe line.
