At the end of the British Championships, the  team for Paris has increased to 29. If my numbers are correct, that would give room for 11 discretionary picks to make up the team to the maximum of 40. 

 

Individual Qualifiers: (22) James Guy (400Free), Keanna Macinnes (200m Fly, 4x100 Med), Emily Richards (200m Fly), Adam Peaty (50/100m Breast), Filip Nowacki (50/100/200m Breast), Amalie Smith (400m IM), Duncan Scott (200m Fly/200m IM), Edward Mildred (100/200m Fly), Lauren Cox (50/100m Back), Max Litchfield (400m IM), Angharad Evans (100/200m Breast), Oliver Morgan (50/100/200m Back), Freya Colbert (200m Free/200m IM), Matt Richards (100/200m Free) Jack Skerry (50m Back), Eva Okaro (50m Fly/50m Free), Jacob Peters (50/100m Fly), Abbie Wood (200m IM), Gregory Butler (200m Breast), Joshua Gammon (50m Fly), Luke Greenbank (200m Back), Theodora Taylor (50m Free)

 

Relay Qualifiers: (7) Evelyn Davis (4x100m Free), Freya Anderson (4x100m/4x200m Free), Leah Schlosshan (4x200m Free), Jacob Mills (4x100m Free), Jacob Whittle (4x100m Free), Gabriel Shepherd (4x100m Free), Jack McMillan (4x200m Free)

[Epic Failure 365]

Jimmy G made it on the 200 free as well as the 400. If memory serves, the Euros allow 4 per nation to enter but only 2 can qualify out of the heats, so I wouldn't be shocked if both Dunks and McMillan get to swim it as well. Similarly with Shepherd, Whittle et al in the 100. 

 

Obviously we don't know swimmers' plans yet, but assuming that they want to take as close to the 40 as possible (not guaranteed) and also assuming the athletes want to go to the Euros (also not assured, with Commies being close and Euro Jnrs being an option for some), I'd presume the following stand a decent chance of being added:

 

Tom Dean, Katie Shanahan - missing through injury/coming back from injury. Their past records make them both a no brainer for me assuming fitness. 

 

Amelie Blocksidge, Max Morgan - two juniors who would probably benefit from the senior exposure more than going back to the Jnr ranks. 

 

And to those I'd personally add Evan Jones, Matt Ward, Charlie Hutchison, Blythe Kinsman, Anna Morgan and Ciara Schlosshan. Provide a variety of cover for relays, as well as depth in some of our weaker events.
