Rocks 1,807 Posted November 15, 2018 It's official: East Yokozuna Kisenosato （Tagonoura Beya） has withdrawn the 5th Day of the November Tournament. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kirinoumi 14 Posted November 15, 2018 Interesting that he is not in the torikumi for today. Rikishi usually pick up one more loss on the day they withdraw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kirinoumi 14 Posted November 15, 2018 Yes, of course, I see that now. Sumo Reference tricked me again by defaulting to Day 6. (There goes my Sumo Game lineup. At least I’m ready for tomorrow!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yubinhaad 11,545 Posted November 22, 2018 Press report that Goeido is kyujo from Day 12, due to a right arm injury sustained back on Day 7 against Shodai (I do recall seeing him flex it afterwards). Good thing he secured his kachi-koshi today. Mitakeumi will even his record at 6-6 with the freebie. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good thing he secured his kachi-koshi today. "Good thing". Yes, what IMPECCABLE timing to finally decide it's not worth fighting injured after getting your 8th win. I was thinking Mitakeumi was going to have an easy match against an 8-win Goeido, but I wasn't expecting a walkover. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yubinhaad 11,545 Posted November 23, 2018 Press report that Arawashi is doing what he probably should have done at the start and will be kyujo from Day 13, due to a left knee injury. Chiyonokuni will get the free win which should secure his Makuuchi place. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rocks 1,807 Posted November 23, 2018 According to this Kaisei re-injured his leg and it hurts badly but will wait till the morning to determine is he sits out.

Fukurou 534 Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Would a mod please lock this thread and any other "Rikishi Status" threads from before Hatsu 2019 that I started and are not locked? I used to take care of this myself, but of course cannot do it since an update from a few years back. Thanks! Edited January 11, 2019 by Jakusotsu Done.
