@@jwang2879 Yes! You are right! Wow, I've just looked up the OQT table and AUS is really really pushing everyone. Unbelievably fast swims all around...
Yep. Australian swimming set the standard and they're the toughest in the world. They say it's because they want those they send to contend, not just make up the numbers. In reality, it's mostly financially driven as it helps keep down costs. Not much money in swimming. That said, if you finish top 2 in the 100m back/fly/breast or top 6 in the 100m/200m free they likely take you for relay purposes whether you make the QT or not and you'll likely get to swim any other events you finished top 2 in whether you made the QT or not. If you only finish top 2 in the 200m breast/back/ fly or 50/400/800/1500 free and don't make the QT that's when you will be in trouble.
Women’s 4x100 medley relay needs to be: backstroke: Mollie, breaststroke:kaylee, butterfly: Emma, freestyle:shayna or meg. Kaylee isn’t a good leadoff and she is fastest Australian breaststroker
What time has Kaylee swum for the breaststroke? I had no idea that had ever swum that competitively. It is the leg that will cost us a chance for gold in Paris. We won in Tokyo by a tiny margin because Chelsea Hodges swum out of her skin and much faster than I think anyone expected from her.
@@gustaaf1892 kaylee went 1:06.8 in February, during a heavy training block, it was also an intense back to back double with 100 free only minutes apart, she would’ve definitely gone 1:06 low 1:05 high if she swam it here. It should be kaylee on breaststroke
@@aperson5237 Cheers for the response. I doubt they'll do it, but based on that information it would seem to be the right choice. She obviously trains for breaststroke as part of her medley training, so they'd have to know what she is capable of. The breaststroke is the leg that will cost us any chance of a gold medal in Paris if they go with all the specialists based on current performances. I'd back Molie to improve her backstroke time as well over the next six weeks. Hopefully Emma can get closer to her old form in the butterfly now that it is her only individual swim in Paris.
It's a shame Sienna Toohey isn't ready and by the time she is McKeon will be retired. Hopefully one of the other flyers can step up next year. McKeown Toohey Throssell? O'Callaghan Wunsch needs to put extra focus on developing her fly.
@@mikes3637 I think he's mistaking Popovicci (Romanian) or he could be referring to Leon Marchan who is crazy good but doesn't swim the freestyle events lol
@@mikes3637 Léon Marchand is a French swimmer and a member of the Arizona State Sun Devils swim team. He holds the World record in the 400 metre individual medley and the French record in several events, including the 200 metre individual medley, 200 metre butterfly and 200 metre breaststroke.
forgot freddy lane in your 200m freestyle history lesson - kind of a big deal hall of famer & first australian swimmer ever to win olympic gold & he won it in paris in the seine.
Sienna Toohey is from my home City of Albury, I am so proud of her achievement especially she’s only fifteen. 👏👏👏
Mckeown And All My Hero 🙏🇱🇰🌟🥇🥇🌟
Good luck All 💙🧡💛🧡💙💛

Kaylee's such a beast. She missed that record on that short touch, and she's fuming!
Go give it to Reagan, Kaylee!
The Aussie team , needs to look at Qualification time for the Olympics as just a guide and take a full team with every race haveing team members in.
Yeah crazy times. Hopefully they'll realize that and take a full team
They can’t, you need to have an OQT to be allowed to go to the Olympics
@@Chicken-lx9dy These are times they set themselves. Check the Paris standards set by Fina, most of the swimmers have it.

I think the extra stroke Kaylee took at the end so close to the wall cost her the WR..if she glides she gets it.
Great time McKeown

1:50 Mollie said to Kaylee “fck that hurt” plsssss
Regan #1 :)
Careful now
I believe there is a young Frenchman that will give our guys a run for gold in the men's freestyle events. Go Aussies.
who’s that?? please tell me

Will Mollie swim the back at Olympics?
Looks like it
@@sethaldrich6902 She has not committed to it yet. Will likely be dropped because it clashes with the 200 free.
were is caeleb dressel???
He's American, not Australian.
@@purselmer5931 oh tnx.
