Dolby 712 Posted July 6, 2021 #10906 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Honestly I don't see how anyone can blame AFI for this? He was outside the rankings initially, so they didn't forward his name. When there seemed a hope that he can qualify with a couple of withdrawals, they started the formalities. They couldn't name him in the squad until his qualification was confirmed by WA. IOA is notorious for creating problems but am sure in the end, they will easily relent and accept his name as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
