Dayron Robles please. Surely good for at least a Bronze you would think!

Brianderunner · 08-07-2011 8:16am

I may delay my next 2 picks until 8.40pm tonight or 9.40pm Parisian time whichever you prefer

Normally would agree but with 2 days between the Paris and Birmingham fields are gonna be split and distorted so its a risky move:D

True, I'd forgotten about Brum. Would have liked to have nipped up to my old home town for that but too much going on down here this weekend

I was looking at that earlier this week but its sold out. With Gay out its not the greatest lineup though.

Are you going to crystal palace the first weekend of august? That one should be better. Made sure i got seats under the roof, its always chuckin' it down at that!

I'm aware of the irony yeah, just nobody stood out enough for me. Door is open for the rest of you now!

We have now passed the halfway point in team selections....I'm thinking it is this half of picks that might determine who comes out on top.

Damn I had been holding off him as my trump card once the picks start getting difficult in the later stages. Especially the fact he isnt doubling and has been training away i thought he would fly under the radar atleast a little while longer

I wouldn't be surprised to see Bekele double in Daegu. Anyway it doesn't make a difference if he doubles or not as the 10,000m takes place before the 5,000m so his performance in the 10,000m won't be affected by going for the double.

I have had such little internet access over the last week, I simply can't invest as much time researching as I would like. I am well out of touch with what has been going on over the last week. It is frustrating but that's the way it goes. So I am going to go with a hunch...

Bernard Lagat for me please.

:eek: Thank you Brian. OK then if it's not too late I'll go for another discus thrower Nadine Muller who won in Birmingham.

Well you just started round 9 there so three more to go after this. Should make things pretty interesting (even with only 10 counting)
