Scotty Hill here. Yer it was a fun battle yesterday with Matt!!! Cant wait to go at it again another time.
The deadlifts went sa follows
Scott open 255 sumo style 3 whites
Matt open 265 conv style 3 whites
Scott 265 sumo grip fail (argg)
Matt 280 got it up but did not lock out knees 2 reds
Scott 265 conv (first tiem in 2 years - thought what the hell) EASY!! 3 whites no grip issues (back to conventional and over 600lb boooyaaa)
Matt 280 got to mid thigh but failed, awesoem attempt!!
Final tally -
Matt 255/170/265 = 690 1st
Scott 247.5/170/265 = 682.5 2nd
was a funny day, bench usually my strenth and was confident of going 180+ kg but was a poor day for me, Matt usually kills deads and he had a poor day there, so you can never really tell how it will pan out on the day!
