Where's our beloved DJ ShoMo!?
You can watch the sports acro action from last night's TBL here. Look out for it from 2:34 of the clip. Don't know if acro enthusiasts are insulted or pleased that the featured performers are consistently referred to as doing 'gymnastics'...

And what about Ashley? Is she on the list? Has she retired, is she taking a little break or is she slowing it down?
Still taking a break as far as I can tell. Light training, no comps...
Shona is still on the national team list, but none of the squads.
It is odd, as they first updated the list completely eliminating Shona from both squads, then they randomly added her back onto the national team, but not the Olympic squad. She must be retired or taking a break (as a recent decision) because she was on the Olympic squad in February.
I also thought it was interesting to see Natasha Hamman's name - she must be trying to jump from Level 10 to elite. How old is she, anyone know?

Am I the only idiot who can't find the lists you are talking about?
Bring back the old GA website
The list (and pictures) of current gymnasts is under the 'athlete profiles' tab on the home page. Underneath the profiles (scroll down) is a list of the Olympic Squad athletes.
The latest news update on the front page tells you who will be at the training camp, scholarship holders AND visitors.
No Shona anywhere except in the Senior Athletes part of the WAG profiles.
Thanks Mez but the strange thing is that I also accessed the athlete profile link but I went in by clicking on 'gymsports' first, then 'WAG' then 'Athlete profile" and it goes to a different page and Shona IS listed!
Very strange set up!
The two links are:
the one I found - http://www.gymnastics.org.au/?Page=3386&MenuID=Gymsports%2F20035%2F0%2CWomen%40%5E039%3Bs%5FGymnastics%2Fc20060%2F3358%2F0
The one you found - http://www.gymnastics.org.au/?Page=8769&MenuID=Athlete%5FProfiles%2F20052%2F0
The one which lists Shona is the old page which has not been updated since the new website was activated. They should have (but obviously haven't) linked both pages to the new list.
Randomness! They have now re-added her to the GA/Olympic Squad. Maybe someone stupid at GA just forgot to put her on the list?
GA-AIS Olympic Squad
(as at March 2009)

Or maybe the countless people at GA who read this blog, were alerted to the fact that Shona was not on the list thanks to Mez?
