Team Ireland - Paris 2024 Qualification Tracker


Recommended Posts

Indeed. She was likely going anyway because of the mixed relay squad, but this is big for her. Hopefully we can get a couple of the boys involved too

I think it confirms the relay because two of the strokes are now qualified individually.

No. A relay gets you 2 “relay only” quotas but you can make up your team with any 2 qualified individuals. We’d have used McSharry and Walshe (fly)

 

Jon Rudd didn’t know this rule last time which meant Brendan Hyland (normally a fly specialist) and Shane Ryan (sprinter) had to swim in the 4x200m free relay.

With Tom Fannon qualifying, every chance the men's relay will make it now. Although Conor Ferguson didn't make the OQT in the 100 backstroke, he has an OCT and is probably within range of getting an invite.
Not sure of the exact rules, but with Daniel Wiffen and Tom Fannon qualified, our team can accept the relay quota, Ferguson could well get in via an OCT invite, meaning Wiffen doesn't need to be included in the relay and we can still invite 2 relay-only athletes. Does that logic stack up or are there pesky rules I am not aware of? :d

The timeline is odd too. They have to accept the relay by start of June, but the qualifying period ends about 3 weeks later (when the OCT invites go out). Both Ferguson (back) and McCusker (fly) have the OCT so might get an invite and swim Ireland has said that, unlike in previous games, they would accept these invites so yes, we could accept the relay quota with Wiffen and Fannon and hope to fill the team with Ferguson and McCusker and 2 relay only. I’m sure Fannon could stretch to the 100m if needed 

 

One more (maybe Ryan in the 100m free or John Short in the 200m back) and I’d be certain!

Hugo Keenan is linking up with the Irish men's sevens squad in an attempt to make the Olympic team. He'll play at an upcoming sevens tournament in Madrid.

The Keenan story is good news and it sounds like one or two more from the provinces might make the temporary move across, though not as big names as him. Tough for some of the long term sevens players who will miss out, but it's the right call I think. A major part of Ireland taking sevens more seriously was the Olympic aspect, so we need to throw everything we can at it.

The Swiss men's lightweight double looks the real deal, O'Donovan and McCarthy will have their work cut out this year to retain their gold medal.

Well, we’ll have a better idea of their current form over the next two days as they’re in the semi together, and hopefully in the final together too
