dodge

I think you’re spot on there but I think Barr can make it. McCann has huge scope for improvement in the 1500m as he has one poor score to be overtaken. FYI Laros isn’t out. He’s in the Dutch squad for the Europeans.

McDonagh another close one. The Korean or German judge giving him the last round would have seen him win. Ah well 10/13 and 2 more than any other European nation. Let’s hope for some kind draws in Paris

Most quotas 12 10 8

Women’s 57kg quotas India regains the quota it earned had to relinquish because of doping

Women’s 51kg quotas Full women’s team (6) for Ireland

They might lose this afternoon, but the two victories this morning weren’t even close to being disputed

Men’s 92kg quotas no heavyweight from (great fight but the right result for Georgia)

Men’s 51kg quotas Cape Verde through to his second Olympics

Quotas this morning for the women 54kg 66kg 75kg

Qualifying has always been harder. Once you get there, you can get an OK draw and win a medal, but getting there is a huge battle

Grainne Walsh just qualified and Broadhurst is at home. I’m very happy with these outcomes A good morning for

Couldn’t be happier for Grainne Walsh as she makes it 8 boxers. Hopefully Moorhouse completes the women’s team later

Happy for him as he was desperately unlucky to get an arm injury in the first world qualifier

Wins for Moorehouse and Aidan Walsh this afternoon mean we have 5 going into the final quota bouts tomorrow Walsh’s win over the Cuban was impressive

Good morning for the boxers. Lehane had a great win over the Ukrainian and fights an awkward looking Hungarian for the quota next Martin McDonagh looked great with a commanding win at super heavy. He fights a former world medalist from Armenia for the spot. That will be some contest

Broadhurst lost today. Her GB rivals have been celebrating this Amy has had two chances to qualify for the Olympics. One for Ireland, one for GB. She’ll still blame others for not qualifying

I desperately wanted Amy to lose and I definitely don’t cheer on Irish born folk who represent other nations (or those who represented Ireland and switch). I suspect most are the same. Just pointing out that she’ll likely end her “amateur” career now and go pro, where nationality doesn’t really come in to it. She can still be Irish but she’ll be representing team Amy and that’s a harder sell than before (and without an Olympic boost to her profile). I’m with you on the broader point. Paul McGrath is a national treasure. Rhasidat Adeleke is on the way to becoming one. I love that our badminton team is an immigrant from Vietnam and a Protestant from Donegal. All are welcome in Irish sport

Well she’ll still Irish, but if she goes pro she’ll have no appeal. She had 2 chances to qualify for the Olympics and failed. That’s more than most get

Mari was always a long shot to be fair. moorhouse won this morning. Fights Guatemala next Hopefully Aidan Walsh does the business later. He’s on about 9:45. I won’t get the result until much later myself

No apology necessary. We all just give our opinions on here. Some times we get heated but the majority just want the best for their sports stars. And Irish sports officials have made some of the most embarrassing statements of all time, so there’s definitely no issue there with others doing their own

I think that appeal is pretty shocking. Reads like something someone on here would write for our faves rather than anything else. “It is clear the Irish boxer did not want to box” as if that matters. Not a hope that Bach even reads it, never mind overturns it

I wasn’t suggesting the love for Annmiek was undeserved! I think she’s been an amazing cyclist and ambassador for women’s sport. I was so happy she got to win the first women’s TDF

As an outsider (who loves cycling), I think some of it is that AVV was so loved that Vollering threatening to disrupt AVV’s status as number one in her final years was seen as a negative on Demi. And they clearly didn’t get on personally themselves so the public mind set was to back AVV.

No Olympics for Kelyn Cassidy. Lost another split decision today. On the back foot after he lost the first round on all cards
