prso1000

3 medals in total at the junior european championship in swimming Nikola obrovac gold in 50m breast Bruno Blaskovic silver 50m free with 22.25 wich is faster than Mario Todorovics qualifying time for rio (22.40), Nikola MIljenic was fourth with 22.48 Karlo Noah Paut 100m free also with good time, Not too bad, i hope Obrovac will focus more on 100m breast in future

you are wrong. grenot will win

difficult to ignore, but i will try this guy is really.... i guess i have to cheer for grenot in rio now ,

How can you say something like that, why, what did she do to you?

I am so sorry for Calic, i think in 2012 he was in final as well And Radic, lets see, but does not look good. And this is really a mistake of the trainers, which said back in february she is safe based on 2012 results. Afterwards she did not really try to improve her results and was preparing for Rio. And except basketball that is it with our team for Rio. Lets hope the basketball teams makes it!!! At least two good news in swimming from the european junior championship. Nikola Obrovac is european champion in 50m breast (but again non-olympic discipline) and Karlo Noah Paut bronze in 100m freestyle with 49.64. This is fastest time in Croatia this year and I think also last year. The bronze medal is really a big achievment considering he is junior for two more years. He could become a big one, but is a long way from junior to senior.

Calic is in the final. He won against the venezuelan guy 3-0. Now the final against Ecuador who was in the final in Baku Go Marko ECH Trap Silver for Josip Glasnovic, 7th Cernogoraz, 13th Kancelar And GOLD for the team

as far as i know, the list is not done per discipline but overall per fina points, that means you could have 10 invitation in one discipline and none in other. but i am not sure if it is like that

todorovic is in as well according to hoo nothing about radic

any news about marcela maric? is it confirmed now? Great news for calic, semifinal, he needs two more wins, so close and so far .... I am still hoping that Muzaric will qualify this week at the ECH in Amsterdam and maybe Mulabegovic

i thought it is that way, obviosuly it is not, but somehow does not make sense to me in the end does not matter, as both of them have no chance for semifinal I am not too happy that todorovic will go, i would prefer someone younger, his time is over and actually he never achieved anything

Radic and Todorovic if they qualify in one event they can start also in other events if they have the OST Means e.g. If Radic gets in in 200IM she can swimm 200 Breast as well

i hope she is in, finally something positive Tennis is such a dissapointment, especially with Dodig, because of him we have two players less. He could have played singles and doubles with Pavic for example. Now we have to cheer for the basketball team, and wait for swimming allocation, but i am not too optimistic there, i guess it will be max. two additonal quota (Radic and Todorovic probably). I hope I am wrong. Then next week athletics ECH : in total we have 11 athletes there. Unfortunately Andrea Ivancevic cancelled due to injury and Blanka (as exected ) will miss it. Otherwise there are 6 athletes who already have a norm for Rio( Perkovic, Kolak, Mihaljevic, Zunic, Simic, Horvat) and 5 without. I guess Muzaric and Mulabegovic could still have a chance, but both did not compete for a while now and is difficult to say what to expect. Loncarek improved significantly but still 9/100 away from Rio which is a lot in 100 hurdles. Ruzic and Hrusoci for both of them ECH is already a big achievement.

Are there any indications who will be playing in doubles I guess Cilic, Coric and Dodig and probably Konjuh are qualified for singles. Pavic (41) and Jurak (47) have good rankings, why not trying to nominate them as well or some combination for the mixed (Dodig/Jurak or Pavic/jurak)

The federation is a joke but it is also a fact that both even by winning that last grand prix would not have qualified

Not really a surprise. Did you see how he looks, more a bodybuilder than anything else. Well our athletics becomes problematic. And there are few more candidates.

Swimming Matea Samardzic in semi final 200m back with 4th time, same Mario Todorovic in 50m delphin (non olympic) All the rest out, our swimming is really bad

Is there any Oceania quota and why AUS and NZL are not using it? Is that known? So if i understand correctly Croatias Kumric (men 100) is second in the reserve list and Miskovic (w 63) is first in the reserve list? But only when it comes to direct qualification replacing, which probably will not happen. When it comes to replacing of continetal quota and invitation places (which is more probable) both are in 5th place on reserve list.

how does the reallocation process works in case invitations are refused?

but even without penalty it was not enough, he was too slow

again no quota for croatia, really bad run for us currently

Mišković is not in. I did overlook the 3 Rd place of Turkish athlete. She is out by 18 points and Kumric by ca.30. As our athletes will not compete in Almaty we remain with one quota only. Unbelievable!!!

Kumric lost in 2nd round and as he is not registered for last grand prix he is out of olympics. Even if he will be there probably he would have to win it. Matic is safe, but for Mišković crucial if Matic will go via direct qualification or continentail quota. this will very much depend on the results of Esther stam and few others in Kazakhstan. Means 1 or 2 quota for us. no man in rio.

That means right now Kumric is out. And Matic and Miskovic in, of course subject to that Matic stays among top 14 in her category.

I don't think we can have two guys in the same category. They will have to chose. I would go with Starcevic. Otherwise good selection.
