MAG Qualification LIVE!

Sort of! ;)

I'm not at my computer at the moment, or at my home for that matter! So please bear with me, there will be lapses in coverage, I furthermore apologise in general for a distinct lack of MAG-related observations of late. I will try and update in the morning (again).


Meanwhile, you can follow live quick hits here and here! Let's hear it for the boys!

Sub 1:

Jefferis (AUS) SR. planche to maltese, cross, upriseto maltese, front giant, front double pike – double front, good control, back giant, double twisting double layout.

And...

Joshua Jefferis (AUS) on rings: lovely cross, calm, controlled routine, very neat swinging elements. Good dismount. A steady routine!


Jefferis PB double pike back, 5/4 straddle salto, Tippelt, healy, healy to arm support to L.-sit, double pike off.

Sam: Simpson PH struggled during the Wu Guonian (open legs). (TAAF)


Aussie Samuel Simpson scores 13.850 on pommel horse to leave him in 10th place there. (FIG) Score 13.85



Josh's scores: Rings 14.775, PB 13.975



*INSERT SLEEP HERE*

Morning.

Just woke up to read this in Subdivision 3, and a knot formed in my stomach:

Philippe RIZZO (AUS) is going fine on high bar, but sits down dismount. score 14.150
Meanwhile...

Samuel OFFORD (AUS) Yurchenko double twist vault, nicely done.11.950

Samuel Offord (AUS) clean routine on high bar but low dismount. 13.750

Offord (AUS) on floor: nice double layout, one step out of bounds; rest of exercise is clean.
Meanwhile (again)...

Sellathurai (AUS) PH good speed, Russians, Gu Wuonian to Russians on one side, Magyar, Sivado, dismount with mistake but saved.

No score yet. Sounds like he had only one noticeable error so hopefully a final is on the cards. Would lesen the sting from Rizzo's fall :(

Sam didn't make the AA final after all, he finished 31st. They must have still had to update the list. I'm disappointed for him, he came pretty close....
