Jacob Despard

@LaurentMeuwly @JoelMasonHJ @WorldAthletics Oh great so you expect us to do that twice each season for competitions, on top of training camps. Good one. Guess we should all just move to Europe or America?

@JoelMasonHJ @WorldAthletics We spend 3 months a year abroad for training camps. So I am not feeling sorry for Aussies and Kiwis to travel 3 months for competitions sorry 😉

@WorldAthletics recognizes indoor and outdoor performances on 60m and 60m hurdles on the same level. The 6.43 from Lachlan Kennedy (PB 100m 10.20) performed with +1.6 wind on a standard outdoor track in Canberra are announced as #10th best all-time and him and the next 3 finishers in this race (6.50-6.52-6.55) are all qualifiers for World indoors… I am interested in coaches and athletes opinion about this here.

If they want 50+% of the olympic list filled from points they need an objective system to get into high points races.

Take a bow, Reece Holder! 🥈 En route to silver at @Chengdu2021, Reece clocked 44.79 to become the fifth fastest Australian over 400m and met the qualifying standard for #Paris2024. 🤯 #ThisIsAthletics @AUSOlympicTeam

Disheartened and frustrated by the current point manipulation and politics within meets & athletes trying to get opportunities to run with decent points available in Europe currently.

@LukeMathews95 Birmingham last year was unreal, sold out Athletics Stadium everyday for example.

Without getting into the politics involved with Victoria giving up the 2026 version, I see a very bleak future for the Commonwealth Games. Anyway, here is the greatest moment the games has ever seen to reminisce on the good times. youtu.be/xldWJcBMLDkg

Up & coming election, let’s promise regional towns a sport, get regional votes and then at a later date cancel and blame the cost.

3x more than the last games and 5x more than GC Games?!

@Bartlett_DJ @SmirksTas I’d also like an indoor athletics facility or at least an undercover area down the back straight at the Domain while we’re on the topic of sports funding in Tasmania.

Yep. The fastest growing sport in Tasmania is so well served. But don’t worry a one billion dollar stadium will inspire the kids. #politas
