my team's for today and tomorrow, reckon i need four changes for the TTT. let's hope it all works out eh
Forgot to put that I brought in Sagan and Nava (Nava with the TTT in mind too)
Already had Navardauskas(I hope you mean him and not Navarro
)
Sagan and Terpstra in for Cavendish and Kristoff

Worried about the VanPoppel's today(sounds like the after effects of a dodgy curry) and was tempted by Millar with the TTT in mind but sticking to the plan.
Gerro for the win please
I spent ages deciding between Gerrans and Albasini - actually tossed a coin in the end and it come down Swiss...
I should have succumbed to temptation and gone Sagan and Millar
Great minds and all that
Sagan's injuries from what I read last night are superficial if fairly extensive, but I've rued not bringing him in before when I thought he was too injured to win. The next two stages suit him so I'm bringing him in along with Degenkolb for Cav and Bouhanni. Left in Kittel and may leave him there for a while for the table points. Was originally going to have Gallopin as he was a bit cheaper but he came in 194th so I haven't gone for him although he says he is ok as well.
So made 1 extra transfer for a 10 pointer. Hopefully pay off
Cav and Bouhanni out for me. Think I have a strong team for today, but after yesterday
At least Dumoulin and Hivert who I have for today were ok yesterday. Kept Greipel as the sprint is early, and Kittel as he will still be top 5 in points whatever happens I think. Also didn't want penalty points
Tony Martin cleared to race for stage 2

Chapeau to him. If he was a footballer he would be out for weeks
Tough Guy
They must really be targetting the TTT then with a view to taking yellow there......and why not with Chava,Kwia and Panzerwagon on board.
Feel a low score coming today
Cav and Griepel out for me. Hope i can get a breakaway guy today
After alot of hovering over the confirm button i've got rid of Bouhanni too and taken a 10 point penalty.
Taken a punt on a rider who should be all over this stage in his multi-coloured jersey.....
I like the sound of Phil Gil too but quietly confident for Gerro....especially after all the talk of a 'Poggio-like'descent just before the finale.
It's also the sort of stage that I would normally go for Cunego but he's let me down too many times this season and I preferred Terpstra for his TTT chances down the line.
Not willing to incur the penalty points this early; barring a bit of good luck in breaks my Tour begins in Nice.
Two changes made, as per the plan. Sagan FTW.
According to the Team Sky site Thomas is fine.
Got rid of Cav plus 2 more and took a ten pointer already
Cant find anything anywhere about Sagan's injuries, if any, so kept him in for today.
there's no-one who isn't starting, so far as we know. martin, king and thomas all still in
I was under the impression Martin was out with a broken collar bone
turned out it wasn't broke, just contusions and he lost a lot of skin. big gash in his arm too. and concussion
Not sure about him starting after concussion, not good. Most sports would give an automatic period of no competition. Hope he stays safe today.
Do we know who's out for certain?
Martin?
wat about Hoogerland is he fine?
I still getting rid of Cav n Kittel, just not sure on my 2 to bring in, lol
I'm with Steve on this was going to wing Corsica as I had a team set up for the first 3 stages , however after yesterday's debacle I've had to make changes due to the crash
So to stick with the plan and go with the walking wounded or throw 3 weeks of prep out of the window and find a Plan B..... Mmmmmm...
Plan B me thinks....
Stuck to my plan - Cav and Kittel out! Could be a big mistake...
