****thorpie****, page-39

This swimming body represents Aust. Does it not? Taxpayer funding at many levels? Why would they not select our best swimmer. Possibly the best swimmer in the history of this planet. Are you sheep saying he should not be selected for real? This rule becomes a total irrelevance here, these TRIALS are to differentiate between contestants of equal or reasonably similar ability. This guy is undisputedly the worlds best swimmer, idolised everywhere and he must represent us in the 400m. Sheep, please try and think outside the square just a touch and QLD cretins wake up, Hackett has been living in Thorpes shadow and swallowing his backwash since day one.
