Picking up the fight

LET the games begin.

No, not those of the Commonwealth variety, but those that lead to a string of guessing games as to who will be selected.

While no one’s fault, now is the time we start talking “descretionary selections” in regards to firming up our Aussie lineup for next April.

There has already been conjecture surrounding the boxing, triathlon and bowls crews, while we will hear more shortly about our diving team given the couple of big names who, for one reason or another, could not automatically qualify.

It’s an unavoidable scenario, yet it can also get quite messy. Let’s just hope the right calls are made in the end.
