Definitely enjoyed these games. Had the luxury of staying with a friend in Coventry so got to see a lot of the events up close along with the opening ceremony. Great atmosphere and the whole city was buzzing so still coming down off the high of it all.
England had a good games securing a record number of medals. Slightly disappointed we missed out on Golds in some of the team events but enjoyed the Gymnastics, Athletics along with the Basketball and Beach Volleyball which I previously hadnt seen much of but think I could get used to those sports. In general pleased to see all the home nations doing well along with all the others who are going home with hopefully a lot of good memories.

Yeah, I'd be shocked if they didn't enter a medley team, especially where it comes in the program. By that stage it isn't like any of the likely swimmers will have another event to prioritise, unless Evans decides to do the 50 (which she didn't even take part in this week.
Shame about the mix up for the 4x100 free, although I wouldn't be surprised if that team goes (although whether they will take Taylor is more debateable). You'll have Okaro, Anderson, Colbert there anyway, along with Wood and Hope. If they don't enter it, you have to imagine it is because of workload issues more than anything else.
The mixed free relay is the only one that you would say is really doubtful, especially not being an Olympic event. But even then you've probably got enough swimmers there to field a team if they want to.
Are you sure? I thought that from next year there is going to be two groups with sama level. Sth as Canada, Czechia, Switzerland, Germány, Austria in one group and others in the another group
the Australian Open Champs just started in Brisbane
Thomas Ceccon was 1st (with an all-comers record, 23.00) in the men's 50m fly heats and also swam and qualify for the A final in the men's 200m back (5th best, 2.00.54)
