You can be subjective with your tastes, but objectivly that ain't right. It screams rigging on purpose because they know who is at odds to win and you got the power to tank them on purpose. 1

Let's not pretend over ranks and look at actual facts. Måneskin would've never won Eurovision if juries didn't pump up first candidate into unbeatable points. They would never beat Loreen or Nemo if they competed in their respective years.

Juries saw the televote-winning rock number defeat their artsy-fartsy swiss fave in 2021 and made sure it didn't happen again this year 2

How is being placed 2nd-5th in the jury being tanked Juries having a clear favourite is not anything new in ESC (eg Loreen 2023, Dami Im 2016, Måns Zelmerlöw 2015). Croatia were the only country of 36 to not give Switzerland any jury points. Are you gonna call that rigged too?
Fevesy Posted May 24 Posted May 24 Not sure on the Croatia jury tanking allegations when it got more 1st places than France. The only thing up for debate is France vs Switzerland and I'm genuinely surprised it wasn't more split between.. but then Slimane voice cracked several times in the jury performance.
Fevesy Posted May 24 Posted May 24 The 1 first place juror for Austria is sending me... that's a *** hunny.
Green Tea Is Green Posted May 24 Posted May 24 Let's talk about the one who actually deserved to battle Nemo for the jury 12s, Bambie Thug! 1
Hurem Posted May 24 Posted May 24 Yeah, people need to drop the "juries tanked Croatia" theory. Most of us thought it would get somewhere between 150-200 points, and it got 210 points when all was said and done. Looking at the individual juror rankings, Switzerland was always winning this. Even if Slimane's voice hadn't cracked during the jury show, there was no way he would take more than ~15 points from Nemo. Therefore, I don't think it was rigged against Croatia, but it was rigged for Switzerland.

None of them had such high gap advantage like Switzerland this year or Loreen last year You could tell halfway through jury votes who is winning when they announced scores because there is no way televote would overpower them

BOOM! Posted May 24 Posted May 24 Quote Rare footage from Fokas Evaggelinos dancing school, where Helena Paparizou used to do her rehearsals, days before she left for Kyiv. At that moment the dance act wasn't complete and the dancers are not all the same who participated in the contest. I remember Fokas told me that "if this video gets leaked, I'll be in a biiig trouble". I was so frightened, I kept it a secret for 19 years. I think now I'll be okay to share it.
