==========================================================================

Looks to me like our main weakness and where we messed up was with Morain Moriba on the 3rd leg handing over to Callender. I also notice that Morain Moriba lost the advantage that Burns had established over St Kitts during his 2nd leg down the back straight.
So in summary Morain let down the team with his weak 3rd leg and messed up badly with his exchange to Callender otherwise we should have won that 4x100m relay final easily and not given St Kitts any ideas of being able to beat us.

This win by St Kitts might give them some false sense of confidence that they can match or beat T&T come the Olympics as they did not have Collins on their squad.  :devil:

Well done to our juniors and all the best to St. Kitts but if we bring our top guys and providing all exchanges are made swiftly they will be no trouble. We're missing KB, RT, RS... I think Callender has the 3rd leg- he is the best man for the job.

The T&T 4 x 100m Relay A squad for the London Olympics should be 1st leg Bledman, 2nd leg Burns, 3rd leg Callender & 4th leg Thompson if we want to medal and maybe lower our national record.

Rondell should be allowed to concentrate on the 200m but could be a back-up for one of the relay guys if one of them pick-up an injury.
