It’s trials? We’re talking about practice.
A close competition inspires swimmers to all reach that much deeper into their tank to swim that much faster. It’s the Olympics final, you Pit the best swimmers against each other and obviously they would all try to edge their opponents out. Doing a faster lap doesn’t surprise me..
But you can’t tell me she wasn’t capable of doing better…
Sorry but I have to write about Leisel Jones
Yeh well, I guess I shouldn’t have completely written her off but you see my point, she could have achieved more had she prep herself better…
Sorry but I have to write about Leisel Jones
Obviously I only wrote that because I genuinely thought she was unfit, and of course I wouldn’t write the piece unless I think I appear to be fitter than her not to mention most athletes… So yeh, I got no problem with that.

Might as well give the job to Andrew johns. Can’t hurt.
Stuart says NSW coaching decision is vital
Please, it’s a winter night. NRL wouldn’t be the same without the roosters
Titans close in on top eight NRL berth
Everyone is just saving up for the 2013 season tickets, all is well haha
Titans close in on top eight NRL berth
If he is coaching any other club, probably. But it’s the eels,don’t think he will have time for nsw.
New Eels coach Stuart won't rule out NSW
Ferguson is one of those guys who were hyped up too much when they first played for Australia but since being discarded have worked their ways into being underrated journeymen.
Ferguson over the moon at ODI recall
I think he should be moved down the order, would be good for him health wise and for Australia’s batting order as well.
Watson keen to remain an allrounder
Pearce should be captain in time but I think minichiello has earned the right to be captain next season.
Smith mulling over Roosters captaincy
Barton is one of the most talented midfielder England has seen, pretty controversial figure on and off the field, I follow him on twitter and he seems pretty intellectual, shame he allows emotion to get the better of him at times.
Barton saga a bunch of hogwash
It was a good deal Roma made there, but yeh I don’t understand why he hasn’t been given more of a chance at anfield. Guy can play, well especially when compared to Charlie Adam he is an upgrade no doubt.
How will Rodgers save Liverpool?
Rafa truly loves Liverpool. But his recent coaching history is so bad John Henry doesnt wanna risk it… Shame.
How will Rodgers save Liverpool?
Carroll won’t be at anfield next season, Rodgers is shopping him around.

Does look pretty awesome that gravy train.

Oi dude, it’s not about female athletes’ body images at all. Just basic work ethic. it’s swimming, she appeared to be so unfit to the extent that if she werent liesel jones no one would believe she is a swimmer, led alone a competitive one. Surely letting yourself go like that after qualifying is not in the best spirit of the game.

I’m sorry if this article hurts your feelings.
Sorry but I have to write about Leisel Jones
Not saying she should be off the team at all, not once did i question her place on the team. I am saying she didn’t prep well enough to give herself the best shot.

thanks for the clarification, bad misunderstanding on my part.
Origin bonuses should be outside the cap
players don’t get paid by clubs for origin appearances… it shouldn’t affect how they are getting paid in the first place, besides if you are good enough for origin, chances are you would be getting more than the average players anyways
Origin bonuses should be outside the cap
Bayman, one thing, when you supported your argument with Tendulkar’s average of 55.44, you used his career average over 22 years, thus implicitly taking advantage of his longevity and his slump after 2002, i think it would be fairer if you form your argument based on his average up to 2002 when he was ranked no.2 by Wisden. so yeh, find another guy who has averaged 55.44 over a 22 year career and we can talk about it further. this is almost a non-issue.
Time for Ponting to concede to the Little Master
You think Mancini doesn’t deserve credit, any one of balotelli or nasri or tevez would get most coaches fired…
Unbearable lightness of being a sports fan
The Tahs, I would argue may be you should probably just focus on the wallabies, so many heartbreaking losses you can call them a health endangering hazard to fans.

it’s about her going from not being satisfied of getting silver and bronze at Athens to being ecstatic about coming 5th. there’s been a change of mindset.
