Whilst we still know very little about the full potential of this year's class, I think we are all firmly agreed that it is a massive step up from last year.
This got me thinking about Jay running away with the Glitterball last year. Many of us (me certainly included) thought that he had an unfair advantage and, thereby, had the competition wrapped up in Week 3.
Now please don't make this another in a long list of "Did Jay deserve to win?" threads as its not designed to be one. What I want to ask here is, with the field so open this year, would you have preferred to see Jay have a little more competition by being included in this year's line-up instead?
Personally, I would have loved and preferred to have seen him included in the Class of 2016. Undoubtedly, he has a special talent for dance and it would have been great to see that challenged even more. Imagine what a competition we would have had on our hands with Daisy scoring a "9" in Week 1 along with Danny's stunning debut. Then Jay doing "that jive" in Week 3. we'd all literally be chomping at the bit waiting for Week 4 !!
And if he had come out on top of this group, I'm sure I would have respected and welcomed his win much more.
