My question is, who will be the next Ontario puller to win a Nationals, who hasn't already won one.
Opinions?
Jeff Penney has had back to back 198 thirds, and Jeff Slater had a second in 07. Maybe Brad Wade? John Milne?
This goes for all classes.

Has Allan won Nationals before?
I think the Grippler could be next in line too.
And, Hasan.
And Jeremy Johnston at 143, which he is 147 currently.

Actually I only got second in 98. But I beat that guy at the worlds so I always said I was first in Canada.
Thanks for your confidence in me John.
There are many guys that are in the running this year and I think your tournament will set precedence Mike and i can't wait to see the outcome.

Tom won nationals in 2002 and even took second at the Worlds that year.
If William Walsh goes to nationals and pulls the 132 class, he has a very good chance of winning.

Although from Quebec, no one will beat me in the 132 right hand class this year. Just letting everyone know...  |

Brian Tamblyn might be the best bet. I think he has never pulled Luke Reimer, that might be good.
John Milne, what class do you think you'll pull?

It will either be 187 or 198. It really depends on how I feel and who is going. Honestly, I think if Luke Reimer does not go then it is open season for anyone to win that class. Mr. Tamblyn would be a favorite to do so if he attends. Heintje, I could beat the "old" Al Ford, but now he is training hard and smart. I honestly dont think I can beat him twice. I think I can still get one on him, but he is getting so good right now. I'm showing him everything I know and even heard of. It's nice to see actually... I mean I want good things for myself and teaching a direct opponent how to beat me all the time is kinda counter productive but he's a great competitor and I enjoy seeing him reach his potential. Shea Dickie is a name I expected to see on this list but haven't yet. |

Hey Marc..id love to pull that 132lb arm of yous with your confidence...good luck at Nats...never heard of William...
My vote would be on Jermey...if he can hit Nats around the 143lb class he could do some real damage right handed...we may have a guy thats gonna take that class from NB if he can drop to the 143's..
Ian definately has strength to be up there, I just cant see him beating Earl, Ryan, or Len right now..but hhis training is definately showing and he is progressing well
Jeff Penny would be a close 2nd in my vote behind Jeremy..that guy is a machine!

Hi Will,
I think that's a great idea. I've come a long way since 2007 and train pretty hard. I've also seen you in action and know you're strong as hell.
If you do pull 132's, I have no doubts that we'll meet in the finals.
