What exactly happened ? It use to be one of our top sports . Not even one medal at these championships . Netherlands, Britain and Romania absolutely destroyed 

Not to mention the pathetic amount of boats/athletes (2 and 10 respectively) qualified for Paris, and a missed chance at the Continental Qualifiers, where Trevor Jones would have most likely secured a quota in men's single sculls. Only positive was Moffat/Casson in women's double sculls, who finished fourth. At the Final Qualification Regatta, I'm hoping we can qualify another 3-6 boats, but it's looking quite unlikely at the moment.

Oh wow - I definitely expected Canada to have more of a presence at the last chance qualifiers. It absolutely seems like the right call to focus on fewer crews but ensuring they have the best possible chances but really was expecting Trevor Jones to compete in the men's single.

The coaching staff probably feel the men's eight is the best chance of qualifying/medalling which makes sense since none qualified. But no Trevor Jones makes 0 sense

 

Rowing Canada needs to let go of upper management asap. Last few cycles this has not worked.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on
