I don't think you get what he's saying, Dragon. It has nothing to do with the song.

Song?   It's more of a political thing than a song contest.

Of course, they can win, but the 1.7 odds are terrible. I keep hearing "free money". 50% of the vote is from professional juries, in which they will likely finish 7th - 10th.

They are also drawn first half with most of the other upbeat songs. There are too many question marks around a 1.7 shot.

Nobody will want to be seen as the ones giving less than the maximum to Ukraine.  I expect them to not only win but to have the highest ever score.  It makes the 'competition' a farce but it is what it is.

The professional juries are known to show political
anyway.

What odds Greece get 12 points off Cyprus professional jury?

Political bias

1.38 now - wow

Why are you surprised?  This event has nothing to do with "songs".

1.38 is short in anyones book

It's free money. Every single country will be extremely eager to display how virtuous they are by awarding Ukraine maximum points.

the blind nun with one leg wins it

Listening to it... if its about talent and the song it wins feck all

it hasn't been about that for years (if ever)

True

But even that one would look obvious even for eurovision

What are Australia doing in it ?

free money thread jinxed it

Nice rack on the French presenter.

Ukraine 1.32, although they're 60 odd points behind. Interesting.

is the public vote going to turn it round?

I'm watching with the sound turned off So, I've no idea what's going on, but it looks to me that Ukraine are a long way behind. is there a TV viewers' vote or something that would explain the odds, maybe??

Ukraine got 430 odd out of max possible 480
in public vote..

Greece happy with their 12 from cyprus

Yhtl

I cant stop laughing at how fecking stupid that was

3 hours of torture to them get 10 minutes of a public vote result and heres your winner

Couldnt they just give the lad the political trophy 4 hours ago and save us that nonsense ?

He pi33ed in on the phone vote pretty much took all the points

Crock of shyte . Well done backers in feb and march though, cleaned up.

Even the plebs arent buying it they know what a load of bullsh!t it is

That song was just utter dross, its pathetic at this point

This will put the wind up Putin, and no mistake.

All i hear from most “its fixed” and “sympathy vote” yet none of them voted it

Who the feck voted in those numbers needed?

True, Vlad will be absolutely seething with rage. Hope he doesn't do anything rash in response.

Wait, why hasn't Putin canceled his plans?

SS, you're right about the three hours of torture, although I thought is was nearer four hours. Normally just catch the end of it, but yesterday with fine weather  bbq, cup final & Eurovision seemed like a good idea. I couldn't sit through that again, even the cup final was dull.
