Everybody likes Hide.. he's one of these personalities on the pro tour that everybody likes to have around.. He gets great local support from Jap expats wherever he competes and gives it his all.. Mr Enthusiasm!
Very hard body. Bit off comparing with one week before but still he is one of the best conditioned guy in AC.

Sergey shows some potential with this shot.. It would have been interesting to see him in shape.

I think this guy is really good but he is just very pale and flat.

Gee I like the look of Rockell.. This guy is all class.. IF he brings his A-game back down under he'll be hard to beat.. no matter the competition.

I don't know if its just the angles of the pics, but he looks to have re-gressed. IMO he needs to move to the US full time to have a shot at improving.. the drugs in OZ just aint there to make it a level playing field.


palumboism... 2 nd stage... Luke Wood needs to hang it up... looks good in the gym but not on stage. 2 years ago he was fine in NY... ever since then he is going down fast.

What holds Ronnie Rockel back???? The fact that he is not from the US... sad but true.

MAD PROPS to Dan Solomon and Bob Chicerillo for a brilliant pre-judging commentary.. These guys are a real asset to Bodybuilding. 8)

good shot's,silvio remind's me off mustafa if comparing,taylor man look's good his chest is only thing going down overall ok,rockel is ripped and great shape,leg's are nice shaped and full,dugdale cover's all bases and prepared i don't think he will go over the edge and do radical improvment needed today,just bring what work's for him.gustavo lost the last 2 year's of improvement's he made.branch is a beast but at this point he cannot go back and undersize himself to please the judges for a symmetrical type build,seem's some of these guy's have 1 big year of top 3 place's in the smaller show's and everybody rave's and make's them legitimate contender's for year's and they either play the size game or miss their peak's all together and make's you wonder how they improved so much year before and now year later a also ran?
