Would somebody be able to take over the recaps for Aussie trials? I'm not going to be able to watch live anymore.

Of all the times for my VPN to stop cooperating

Australian Olympic Trials: Day 2 Women's 100m Backstroke (SAQT: 59.62, OQT: 59.99): 1. Kaylee McKeown - 57.41 Q 2. Mollie O'Callaghan - 57.88 Q 3. Iona Anderson - 58.43 In the event that Mollie O'Callaghan does end up dropping this event, then Iona Anderson should be selected. Women's 100m Breaststroke (SAQT: 1:06.31, OQT: 1:07.01) 1. Jenna Strauch - 1:06.90 q 2. Ella Ramsay - 1:06.94 3. Sienna Toohey - 1:07.01 Toohey is just 15 years old by the way. The selection criteria doesn't explicitly say that the stroke 100 winners get nominated but I'm going to assume that Strauch will be selected anyways despite missing the qualifying time. Overall, disappointing times here. Men's 100m Backstroke (SAQT: 53.21, OQT: 53.74) 1. Isaac Cooper - 53.46 q 2. Bradley Woodward - 53.53 3. Enoch Robb - 54.14 Just like with the women's 100m breaststroke, I'm going to assume that Cooper will be selected for the medley relay. Men's 200m Freestyle (SAQT: 1:45.97, OQT: 1:46.26) 1. Maxmillian Giuliani - 1:45.83 Q 2. Tommy Neill - 1:46.02 q 3. Elijah Winnington - 1:46.08 q 4. Kai Taylor - 1:46.26 q 5. Zac Incerti - 1:46.83 6. Alex Graham - 1:47.11 7. Flynn Southam - 1:47.29 8. Brendon Smith - 1:47.53 Pretty disappointing times overal. Giuliani is the only one to get under the qualifying time. I'm going to assume that the top 4 will all be selected with Incerti and Graham also having a good chance of being selected for the relay. Qualifiers after Day 2 (15 Athletes): *Athletes in italics don't have a qualifying time yet Men (8): Isaac Cooper - 4x100m Medley Relay Maximillian Giuliani - 200m Freestyle, 4x200m Freestyle Relay Tommy Neill - 4x200m Freestyle Relay Sam Short - 400m Freestyle Kai Taylor - 4x200m Freestyle Relay Sam Williamson - 100m Breaststroke, 4x100m Medley Relay Elijah Winnington - 400m Freestyle, 4x200m Freestyle Relay Joshua Yong - 100m Breaststroke Women (7): Emma McKeon - 100m Butterfly Kaylee McKeown - 100m Backstroke, 200m Individual Medley Mollie O'Callaghan - 100m Backstroke Lani Pallister - 400m Freestyle Ella Ramsay - 200m Individual Medley Jenna Strauch - 4x100m Medley Relay Ariarne Titmus - 400m Freestyle Other nomination candidates: Alex Graham - M 4x200m Freestyle Relay Zac Incerti - M 4x200m Freestyle Relay Alexandria Perkins - W 100m Butterfly

Exactly, the Panthers are one of those teams for me. In this case, I don't like Mathew Tkachuk, Nick Cousins and Sam Bennett. And as a fan of the sport, it would be cool to see McDavid finally win a cup. In 2018, I also was rooting for the Caps so Ovechkin could finally win a cup too. So this is an easy choice for me. To each their own I guess. I'll be happy for Barkov and Bobrovsky though.

Going to be back to back years with unlikeable cup winners. How lovely!

Australian Olympic Trials: Day 1 Women's 400m Freestyle (SAQT: 4:04.98, OQT: 4:07.90): 1. Ariarne Titmus - 3:55.44 Q 2. Lani Pallister - 4:02.27 Q 3.

2:06.63 in the 200 IM for Kaylee McKeown!

3:55.44 in the 400 freestyle for Ariarne Titmus. Just 0.06 off her WR.

Two weeks to go in the qualification period and a lot of big events still on the schedule. Setting up for a wild finish!

Schedule for the 4 Nations Face Off next year.

On the Road to Paris page, Kälin already has the standard from Götzis. I think Vidts reached the standard for the first time at these championships though.
