Australian Olympic Team

Aus championships start today dont they?

 

Damian Hooper is the guy who bet Joe Ward before isnt he? I will have to have a look some footage of him.

 

Oceania games are on in Canberra this week . Gold medal winners are in the team and only gold . Exept 81kg where hooper already goes. I'm not sure if another country wins that 81 division I think they go if they win gold example Fiji or new Zealand but not aust

 

Aust titles already happened aust and new Zealand are aloud to take an A and B teams to Oceania games

 

Sorry I meant the Oceania championships..which I read about on the weekend on the AIBA website.

Is this our boys last chance aswell or does the aussie championships decide it?

If Hooper gets a good run...he is a big chance of getting a medal I reckon.

 

Cheers

 

Yep this is it gold only goes . Let's hope we get all divisions I don't think we have ever had 11 Oceania golds and a full 11 man Olympic team syd was 9 I think and 9 in Athens and does anyone know about 2008??????

 

By the way if hooper gets the luck of the draw in London aust will get there first medal since Cheney in 1988 maybe bronze possible silver

 

I just wrote that I'm not sure if another country wins the 81 there Olympic council might pass him I know hooper is in from the worlds spastic

Watched hooper at the comm games trials, talent to burn... Speed, power.. Great footwork .. Only weakness can hold hands down at wrong times of a fight sometimes.. Oz best best chance of medal..... Did jai opitia make the games, I know he is only young but kid has talent

 

Great story
Thanks

 

Damian hooper is going to be something very special in Australian boxing i think he will defenetly win a medal at the Olympics and a big chance of our first gold
