British WAG and MAG talk 2025

It’s 2 weeks till the British. Is there a start list up yet? I presume that all the athletes who are qualified via a home nations ranking already know if they are qualified otherwise hotels, travel and logistics must be super annoying for them.

They do know. Seniors has been harder to get into this year but Juniors has gone right down to scores of 41 to fill up the available places. That is a nonsense really. No one should be going to the British with a 41. They need to reduce the numbers of junors slightly and increase the numbers of seniors slightly. It's easily done - you move either the disability finals group or the aspire finals group from the Saturday Seniors and put them into the Friday Juniors sessions.

Yeah the juniors need to be down 48 like the seniors - it needs to be more competitive to make imo

Also I will be interested to see if Chloe Allen competes as I thought she was out injured. She didn't do the Welsh or English and hasn't been doing AA recently that I can see.

Same with Mali Morgan

I would be happy with both being 60

Frances Stone has now been selected for DTB Pokal. If Tilly Wright is replacing Charlotte Booth, I wonder who Frances is replacing?

I was really hoping that Alia might get an international assignment pre Euros.

Maybe Mali? Unless someone else has pulled out.

It would be good for Alia to do an international comp as it’s a big jump when she’s been back at training less than a year
