Dark horse & Flop of the Year

Flops: (hopefully )

I'm not sure I would use the word flop but there are A LOT of countries at the top of the betting this year that I think have the ability not performing as expected (if that makes sense )

Sweden, UK, Ukraine, Norway and Austria are at the top of the overrated list. I also have doubts of Armenia winning cause I fear the jury will vote something more conventional xdoh (I think the France 2011 comparison makes sense).

Hungary, Azerbaijan and Israel while top 10 in the betting I can definitely see doing better then most countries listed above (Hungary/Azeribaijan especially )

5th sounds about right for Denmark although I can see them finishing a little lower. Romania could also finish higher then 11th but I wouldn't be shocked for them to place around that. Around 15th sounds right for Belgium

Spain, Greece, Russia, Netherlands, Italy are rated low and should be higher Malta, Estonia, Germany and Poland should also be a little higher although not by too much

Finland and Ireland at 15 and 20 are also a bit high I think. I don't think France will finish dead last but they won't do much better

I have officially changed my Dark Horse from Macedonia to Latvia. Taking a big gamble here but I was on a sinking ship anyway so may as well jump boat to a more exciting ship that could be saved from sinking.

are Dark Horses for a good/surprising result


Dark Horses for the win

Dark horses:
I want these two to qualify: I love 's song, it's so cheerful and playful. really deserves to qualify.

Flop:
I even hope it doesn't qualify but that won't happen

My mum's been first listener of all entries tonight, and this has been the one which she liked most along with Sweden. Definitely The Common Linnets are dark stallions!!

Not sure they are dark horses anymore, but Hungary and The Netherlands both have a shot at winning. My guess is UK will flop. Sweden and Armenia are also in a tough spot since they're in the first half.

Haaaa did I say that!? I think you'll obviously find what I meant to say was "It's clear that San Marino are the Dark Horse of the year"xwhistle

Simply based on Semi 1 results:
Dark horse:
Flop:

San Marino and Iceland will need high points from scandinavians family and Italy and Albanian jury to hope escaping bottom 5.

 

[Mozz]

It was my suspicion already but since last night I'm sure: is likely the big flop this year. Very disappointing, flat performance.

 

[revallsay]

The biggest flop are the juries!

That was a bit too easy.

The correct answer for dark horses was The Netherlands and Austria

One of my dark horses made the left side of the scoreboard, one bombed, the other two didn't even get past the semifinal. Guess I'm not good with flops because they all made the top 11
