Do you think is there any chance they will forfait their medley or freestyle quota?

  • Ben Proud - M 50m Freestyle
  • Abbie Wood - W 200m Freestyle , W 4x200m Freestyle Relay, W 200m Individual Medley

 

Priority 2: Relay swimmers (guaranteed selection) (5 swimmers)

  • Medi Harris - W 4x200m Freestyle Relay
  • Lucy Hope - W 4x200m Freestyle Relay
  • Tom Dean - M 4x100m Freestyle Relay, M 200m Individual Medley
  • Alexander Cohoon - M 4x100m Freestyle Relay
  • Joe Litchfield - M 4x100m Medley Relay

 

Priority 5: 2nd place finishers with nomination time (3 swimmers)

  • Jonny Marshall - M 100m Backstroke
  • Laura Stephens - W 200m Butterfly
  • Katie Shanahan - W 400m Individual Medley, W 200m Backstroke

 

Candidates for Priority 4 - Discretionary Picks

  • Freya Anderson - W 100m Freestyle, W 200m Freestyle (injured)
  • Kieran Bird - M 400m Freestyle (OQT)
  • Amelie Blocksidge - W 1500m Freestyle (OCT)
  • Lauren Cox - W 100m Backstroke (NT at World Championships)
  • Kara Hanlon - W 200m Breaststroke (OCT)
  • James Wilby - M 100m Breaststroke (OQT)
  • Jacob Whittle - M 4x200m Freestyle

 

In addition to those athletes Tobias Robinson, who has already qualified in open water, will compete in the men’s 800m/1500m freestyle events despite not having matched the BST as it won’t impact the 30 swimmer cap. 

Only James Guy booked a ticket tonight, so we have 19 guaranteed athletes.
Luke Greenbank is also now on priority 5 with his 200m Backstroke. Let's say those 4 will be included and we would have a team of 23 (except Tobias Robinson).

 

They could easily say "we're done" but it would be a bit odd I guess. I still believe they will take both relays, or at least ask them to do a tryout.  If they decide to take 30, those are my bet for the 7 extra, kind-of-on-order
 

 

I think there are 4 safer bets because either they won their races, or they would form relays

 

  • Kieran Bird - M 400m Freestyle (OQT), not only he has an OQT and won the event, he could be a relay option, with his 6th on 4x200m Freestyle
  • Angharad Evans W 100m Breaststroke (OQT), not only she won but she could form the 4x100m medley
  • Eva Okaro - W 4x100m Freestyle (2nd- relay not qualified)
  • Freya Anderson - W 4x100m Freestyle (3rd- relay not qualified) she could easily compete at  W 100m Freestyle, W 200m Freestyle and she was injured

 

 

Then I guess they could take these 3 to be options for relays, and 2 of them are big names

 

  • James Wilby - M 100m Breaststroke (he could even participate in the individual with his OQT and would be a back-up for 4x100m medley)
  • Jacob Whittle - M 4x100m 5th Swimmer?
  • Jack McMillan - M 400m Freestyle (OQT), and he also would be a great option to swim in the heats for  4x200m Freestyle

I doubt it.

 

Currently, the 4 swimmers with the best 200m freestyle times are Djakovic, Mityukov, Liess and Ponti. They would need 1 relay quota there.

 

Medley relay would be something like Mityukov -> Desplanches -> Ponti-> Liess or Bollin -> Desplanches -> Ponti -> Mityukov. Desplanches currently has an OCT so I don't think he needs a relay quota. 

 

So they should be fine. They did reject one quota in Tokyo but it was a women's quota. They accepted all the men's quotas.

They will take some discretionary picks but not enough to fill all 30 I suspect.

    • Besides, I think Eitrem will be better than Ghiotto. You can see it after 1500 meters. He is younger. The whole Norwegian team is also in great shape. You just have to look at the team Norway has, how many new and young skaters there are and in our group A there is one Trentini, who takes last place. In every winter sport we invest too little money to be counted.   If Eitrem has the same form over long distances as he does over 1500 metres, he will dominate this season, not Ghiotto or Roest.
    • Looking at last season's 1st World Cup, it's worse for now and it should be the other way around. Bosa out of shape, Trentini weak. Both will drop to a lower group. It's similar to skeleton, i.e. regression instead of progress. I hope this doesn't mean Ghiotto is also in weaker form, because it could end up with 0 podiums this weekend.
    • In general, our picture for a little over 1 year until the home games looks like this:     - the women's sector is still based on one Lollo, who is 3 years older than 2022, - the women's and men's sprint sector is based on one Bosa and possibly the young Pergher (0% possobility for medal in 2026), - Ghiotto has made a lot of progress and that is a big plus. He could result to give our even 3 medals, including 1/2 gold. Our team's performance also depends to a large extent on Ghiotto's form, - the rest of the men's team is basically unchanged. There is Giovannoni in the mass start, there is Malfatti in the longer distances, but they are not competitors on the podium of a major event.   I will repeat myself: if Ghiotto continues to make such progress, we will probably win 3 medals, 2 of which gold and it will be a success. If something doesn`t work out, an injury, illness, etc. (we know from Vitozzi that this can happen to anyone), then it could be very bad. By the way, this also applies to other sports: the above-mentioned Vitozzi in biathlon, Goggia in downhill, Brignone in giant slalom, etc.
    • With the World Cup season in most of the winter sports about to begin and qualification in some sports already underway, I think it's about time for this thread.    Template    ...

    • Today is a day without Italians in the leads positions. I`m worried that they are not trying to revive this our sprint. There is only one Bosa and he is old. Pergher is young but she is also only one. It is a pity. After the Olympics they will probably 100% give up on the entire sprint. Our medal bag in Cortina will depend 90% on Ghiotto, just like it did on Fabris in Turin 2006. If Ghiotto will be in goodshape, he can even win 2 individual golds + a team medal. If not, it will be a flop. Apart from him, only Lollobrigida can compete in the mass start and possibly Giovannini in the men's mass start.
    • Yup, actually they have just some juniors pairs in the dance event
