Day 6 - Kakaryu ... Thankfully Kisenosato has already faced Harumafuji so the latter's withdrawal will not affect my pre-basho prediction.

I am all for moving down the banzuke: Tochiozan on Day 6

Unbelievably predictable this time around, how long willl it continue?

Tricky, most possibilities so far, but I agree with

well, I go with the flow

Day 6 - Kakuryu

hoping for a fair bout, not a rigged one like on day 4 vs Kaio.

The Kyokai must really believe most of the fans are ok with such shameful Kaio wins.

I am not. anyway...

With no clue yet how the Harumafuji withdrawal will shake things up, I'll go with the safe choice of Kakuryu for Day 6, too...

On Day 6, Kisenosato gets the East Sekiwake, Tochiozan. This derails the bandwagon pick of Kakuryu and confounds my pre-basho predictions. Aran got one vote, but only XiaoTan gets it right so joins the formerly undefeated as the ones invited to make an early pick. I can see a Kakuryu bandwagon forming in the distance ...

Hmmm ... now the problem ... Tochiozan was certainly a possibility for day 6 and could have appeared as early as day 2 but day 7 seemed like a better choice given the other options ... now Kakuryu could appear as late as Day 10 and I'd hate to ride on that many bandwagons :( Well, I'm just going to hope they swapped the Sekiwake for today and therefore:

Day 7 - Kakuryu
