For State, we have some very high seeds and hopefully they can contend for the win. |
He would take derelicts on to work for him. |
I think Toll is more than Paul Little. I think they have a broader and more in-depth team behind them. |
I think we had a nice meet. The kids swam well at different times during the meet. We just weren't as consistent as I had hoped. To get there was a great accomplishment for these kids and hopefully we can get more next year. |
I thought we had a great meet. Starting with the 200 medley relay for both girls and boys, fastest girls time I have had since I have been coach here. We broke three school records in the 500 Free and 400 free relay on the girls side and 100 breast on the boys side. I always want more, but I thought we did a great job of competing. |

Obviously there is a problem there that is not going to be easy to turn around. |
Patrick is trying to extract as much as possible out of Toll. |

The only people that didn't like Ryan were only people who hadn't met him yet. |
There's a huge amount of work around in infrastructure transport and mining, so you can see them maintaining that order book around A$16 billion. |
They have just left the opening there that they need success with the restructuring and, I presume, further measures to be announced, before they make a decision on where that will be. |
We have a good group going this year. Our goal is of course to send as many to state as possible. This year looks like we could have a large group attending the meet if everything goes right. |
