As for the nationals campaign (post Olympics) measured as a whole. The result was zilch. A lot of work ahead during the winter. First thing i guess is to assign a coach capable of coaching such team on the long term.

Form still looks pretty decent for the final 2 races tbh.

Does this count as a win versus Pogacar?
I feel that just because Pog didn't bother to show up today it shouldn't absolve him of getting a "stomped" card. I mean a no-show during a Roglification should even count as a double defeat (for failure to participate).
So give the Vélo D'Or to Roglic as well because why not.

He'll just vicariously scroll instagram to look for a Roglic crashing meme to like.

I'd say that was funny... except for the fact it's literally true (he's done it before, i.e. during the recent Vuelta). So it's sad.
But whatever, Roglic even crashes with more panache as well. Vive the entertainment.

Primoz simply needs more adrenaline: cycling isn't ski-jumping after all. Maybe one day he'll try Paris-Roubaix.

Great race today, shame about no Eurosport coverage, with such a cast it should have international coverage, as it did in the past. I managed to catch the last 10km replay and it was exciting. Great win for Roglic

Not sure what the field is like in Milano Torino, but that should be pretty winnable.
Lombardia, I'm actually not too keen on the finish for Roglic, I don't quite trust his flat sprint

This is correct, i.e. me neither.
It's the worst profile of the week & it just happens to be the "biggest race". But all things being equal Roglic doesn't need Lombardia to have a great season. It would be nice icing on the cake but even these autumn classics are a success now due to this win (better than the spring classics in any case).

Does the field matter for it to be winnable for Rogla? I'm not saying he is going to win, but no matter the field, it should be winnable for him in this kind of form.
Isn't that the same for many others? Same is true for Evenepoel. As long as they can get away or in case of Roglic with slower guys (evenepoel..) he can win right?
Due to bad TV coverage i knew i won't watch the race. Came home and first thing i checked were the results for Giro dell'Emilia. The moment after smile on my face went this big:

Chapeau!
Roglič z 12. zmago sezone napovedal, da je pripravljen na Lombardijo
Primož Roglič je zmagovalec 104. Dirke po Emiliji (194,5 km), na kateri je brez posebnih ambicij dirkal tudi Tadej Pogačar. Drugo mesto je osvojil Joao Almeida, tretji pa je bil Michael Woods.

That sausage represents Wout van Aert's hopes of getting dedicated domestiques in his quest for green in next year's Tour de France.

He's just in amazing form, and what a win again today! And against an ever stronger field that last time as well.

Sad to think there won't be another Innsbruck WC in the near future, I'd rather like the see the rainbow band stomping the field.

Not sure If it's been discussed in this page, but how many of you consider Roglic as true cycling legend?

First skijumper to win gold in Summer Olympics, so I'd consider him a legend in that

History determines if his legacy is worthy of being called a legend. He is a work in progress. IMO he has some work to do before being considered. But I'm very Stingy giving that label to anyone.

Well, I don't think it's about history. It's a about achievements. If you win 3-monuments on a single year or Giro-Tour double, I'd consider you as a legend. Even if you don't do much for the rest of your career.
That said, for me Roglic is also work in progress. One more Monument and/or one more GT (even Vuelta as he'd be the joint record holder) would justify the legend status for me.
