Results available from the event website, livestream from Gymnastics Australia YouTube. Anyone else watch, thoughts?
WAG AA: 1) Breanna Scott 2) Ruby Pass 3) Asher Bayles, & Amber Ward (Hong Kong).
Breanna lovely beam 5.7D, solid floor (double layout is back).
Ruby Pass only did full difficulty on bars, and possible beam on Day 2. She did her usual floor routine choreography, looked good - commentators said she's working on upgrades.
Kate McDonald won bars (huge Tkatchev) and floor (double front, front double twist, 2.5 twist). She didn’t vault.
Miella Brown is competing again after ACL injury. No YDT vault yet, just Yurchenko full twist.
Asher Bayles apparently vaulted a Y1.5 but I didn’t see it.
Absent: Georgia Godwin (?), Romi Brown (ACL recovery?), Kate Sayer (knee or foot), Emily Whitehead (shoulder). Emily’s younger sister Hayley (15) finished 2nd in her category. Emma Nedov has retired.
Peggy Liddick was coaching an athlete. Harriet Wingrove is coached by Tim Lees and Alyona Kvasha.
For MAG, Jesse Moore looked great, difficulty with good form. Won HB with a 5.7D. It was livestreamed on Day 2 at 1hr22m if you want to watch!
James Hardy was solid too, better than last year.
James Bacueti did a Dragulescu and a Kas double twist (I think?) for vault silver behind Hinata Kabeya (think he competes for Japan).
Heath Thorpe had two falls on HB (stoop-half, Def).
As for Worlds teams, I say Breanna, Ruby and Kate, with Georgia Godwin if she's ready.
MAG team is more competitive, I'd guess Jesse Moore, James Hardy and James Bacueti. Then depends how the men are looking closer to Worlds. Possible options: Zac Perillo for rings, Mitch Morgans and Heath Thorpe for HB if they can get some consistency, Marcus Casamento for FX experience? Clay Mason-Stevens is usually good on FX but didn't compete it here, and Vedant Sewant didn't compete so not sure how his PH is at the moment.
