The entire period from 2021 they were out of shape, but their form in this competition is scandalous. A few weeks ago at the European Championships, they lost to Greece by less than 2 seconds with a different lineup. This squad from the Olympics turned out to be a total failure. Unfortunately, Italian rowing is getting worse and the staff is making bad decisions. We will only qualify 7 teams, which is the worst result since 2012, when our other coaches in Romania are building their power there...

Most of the Irish coaching team is Italian too (though not in the lightweights)

We don't have money to keep the best coaches in the country and they are leaving. The same is true in alpine skiing...Results of the women's team in rowing are scandalous and even the probable promotion of 8 to the Olympic Games which has no chance of winning a medal there, will not change it.

Hopefully, we can share some lightweight podiums together in Paris
