LOL - you crack me up :D . Yes Lanesra, it is true that AGAIN, the favourite crashed out. However in this case, the favourite was in complete control of her own destiny. Also true that the Aussie girl outperformed her expectations and really nailed her two jumps.

Arggh, what is it with these conspiracy theorists ;) .
