The Brits have had a pretty horrible T&F meet so far outside of the mixed relay. No men in the 100m F, Asher-Smith, Reekie and Caudery bottling their events.
Keely NEEDS to deliver, otherwise heads will roll at UKA.
Yup, who'd have thought that the selection policy of four middle aged dudes in a room trying to pick winners would be worse than using performance-based rankings?
Still reeling from Caudery going out. So stupid to pass on 4.40

The Brits choking in an Olympics they can’t blatantly door in? Color me shocked! What else is new. 0 gold, 2 silver, and 3 bronze in the last Olympics, which is pathetic. A TON of pressure on Keely and Kerr the next two nights.

According to the video released by local media her coach PS said 1.54 shape. Moraa said she watches P Jelimo 2008 Olympic race regularly. It was a 1.54.9 splits of 55.4 - 59.5 As a journalist did Gault confirm with the Moraa Camp why coach had 1.54 in the interview if it is not so? On her knees to thank her Lord for finally Q into Olympics 24 finals, Moraa was knocked out in the semi-Finals in Tokyo21. Moraa being a spotlight moment girl she has never forgotten the disappointment. Trust me with $50K(a kings ransom) and Olympic Glory beckoning. KH would be best advised not to do a Sha Carri and under estimate the hunger and drive of this lady from the villages of an impoverished EA state.

Moraa told Jonathan Gault she's not in her best shape ever so does this mean Keely is going to runaway with it?
Who gets the other medals? Is silver possible on the table?
It seems like world indoor champ Tsige Duguma who won a semi is the leading #3.
It depends if Meddlesome Mary does her "You shall not pass!" routine on Keely, aka unsportsmanship to the point of cheating. If she does then maybe she'll be Medalsome Mary and I shall boo heartily.
It’s likely Moraa or some other 3rd worlder will pull an “amazing” performance out of a hat - and the press will ignore the obvious rocket fueled victory.
I don't think Moraa's race plan made sense. At all. She had to do something to disrupt Keely. Whether that would've been her old tactics (fast 200, slow middle 400, kick 200) or something more cagey. Just letting Keely control the thing while she herself ran wide was a safe move for a medal, but not a way to win. I don't know why she didn't surge by at some point and at least forced Keely to use energy to pass her while taking the shortest line.
