Fukurou Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 (edited) Day 1 MIA, Day 2 MIA, Day 3, Day 5, Day 5 MIA, Day 6, Day 6 MIA, Day 7, Day 7 Late, Day 9, Day 11, Day 11 Late, Day 11 MIA, Day 13, Day 13 Late , Based on information on absent rikishi on the NSK's website, the following sekitori rikishi will be absent on day 1 of the 2017 Haru basho (subject to change). Day 1 absences from the remaining divisions should be announced in 24 hours or so. As is usual with this thread, let's please try to keep it on topic. That's how it generally works, and makes it easier to find info about who is in and who is out (at this time it appears that Day 1 non-sekitori absence info will be about 20 messages down-thread due to joking around). Links to other threads where info about injuries or whatever led to someone withdrawing are usually provided. Edit - All divisions now included Shimpan absences: Jinmaku-oyakata , Gyoji absences: Shikimori Yonokichi (makuuchi) MAKUUCHI Maegashira 8 East Kaisei (updated link) MAKUSHITA Makushita 14 East MUGENDAI Makushita 26 East SADANOFUJI SANDANME Sandanme 34 West SAIO Sandanme 41 East TOKINOWAKA Sandanme 88 West NOTOAZUMA Sandanme 90 West TAKANOUMI Sandanme 94 West HOKUYOZAN JONIDAN Jonidan 10 West MASUNOYAMA Jonidan 19 West YOSHIMURA Jonidan 32 West OUNABARA Jonidan 56 West BUSHI |Jonidan 59 East MAETA ( link ) Jonidan 74 East KAMENOMARU Jonidan 86 West TAKENOUMI Jonidan 88 West KITASATSUMA Jonidan 89 West UMIWATARI Jonidan 91 West SEITO JONOKUCHI Jonokuchi 11 East TOCHIHAYATE Jonokuchi 13 West HIMEKATSUYAMA Edited March 24, 2017 by Fukurou
Bumpkin Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 So, Kaisei's 739 consecutive match streak will come to an end. Who now will have the longest streak in the top division? 1

Kintamayama Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Brazilian Kaisei is kyujo for the first time in his career. He injured his knee during training with Hakuhou on March 6th. Right knee meniscus. "It's not as bad as we initially thought so he may enter later.." explained his Oyakata. 1

Who now will have the longest streak in the top division? Kaisei had the current longest streak at 435. The current longest streak now belongs to Moti's own, Ikioi at 390 after Hatsu 2017. 1

Kintamayama Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 OK, so Kaisei won't be back any time soon. ACL tear and meniscus injury, three months to heal.

Somewhat ironic that after Tomozuna said, "It's not as bad as we initially thought" it turned out to be worse than they initially thought. I was somewhat alarmed at his idea that Kaisei could enter the tournament later and possibly aggravate things - at least that's not going to happen now.

True, but two missed tournaments would put him in Makushita.

Fukurou Posted March 11, 2017 Author Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Does anyone know what is up with Maeta? He was one of the guys knocked out on the dohyo last basho, and immediately withdrew. I am assuming this absence is still related to that, but I don't think anyone heard (or at least didn't report back to this forum) what his injury was. Edited March 11, 2017 by Fukurou
Tsuchinoninjin Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 On the Japanese wikipedia page for Maeta it says he received a bone fracture in his face area, but the reference is in an offline sports magazine so I can't confirm past that.
