addison Posted: 8 August 2011, 1:25 PM   On behalf of Peter Watson, convenor of selectors: M21E Brent Edwards Jourdan Harvey Martin Peat M16 Tane Moore Shamus Morrison Tim Robertson M17-20 Nick Hann Duncan Morrison Matt Ogden M40 Jeff Greenwood Phillip Herries Rob Jessop M45 Alistair Cory-Wright Paul Ireland Pete Swanson M50 Hamish Goodwin Alister Metherell Bruce Peat M55 Max Kerrison Robert Newbrook Don Paterson M60 Dave Middleton Derek Morrison Michael Wood M70 Graham Fortune John Robinson Gavin Scott W21E Lizzie Ingham Amber Morrison Imogene Scott W16 Helena Barnes Brianna Massie Lauren Turner W17-20 Selena Metherell Kate Morrison Laura Robertson W40 Anna Robertson PC Turner (note only two selected in this grade) W50 Jean Cory-Wright Jay Paterson Suzanne Scott W60 Trish Aspin Kate Fortune Unni Lewis   Graham Posted: 8 August 2011, 1:40 PM   Is there an extended pinestars team?   addison Posted: 8 August 2011, 1:48 PM   Pinestars still going through notification. But yes.   addison Posted: 8 August 2011, 2:05 PM   Also worth noting, Pinestars and ANZ Challenge events are on different dates.   Graham Posted: 8 August 2011, 2:57 PM   And we criticized the Australians for sending a B elite team to Queens Birthday   rob.g Posted: 8 August 2011, 3:06 PM   I reckon the women's elite team is excellent. The fact is M21 and W21 must be contested, so you either have no runners or you name up to three of the available ones, and that is what has happened. Don't knock the selections, as most of the best men are in Europe and not available.   Graham Posted: 9 August 2011, 5:48 AM   Don't get me wrong, I am not knocking the selectors. I just find it disapointing that none of our stronger elites (more specifically men because the womens team is strong) aren't as willing to go over. The competition look like a lot of fun from what i have seen on the website. I am also interested in what the make up of the pinestars will be for the other races.   addison Posted: 9 August 2011, 12:21 PM   Corrected teams (due to unavailability/injury of two members): 2011 ANZ Challenge Team M21E Brent Edwards Jourdan Harvey Martin Peat M16 Tane Moore Shamus Morrison Tim Robertson M17-20 Nick Hann Duncan Morrison Matt Ogden M40 Jeff Greenwood Phillip Herries Rob Jessop M45 Greg Barbour Alistair Cory-Wright Pete Swanson M50 Hamish Goodwin Alister Metherell Bruce Peat M55 Max Kerrison Robert Newbrook Don Paterson M60 Dave Middleton Derek Morrison Michael Wood M70 Graham Fortune John Robinson Gavin Scott W21E Lizzie Ingham Kate Morrison Imogene Scott W16 Helena Barnes Brianna Massie Lauren Turner W17-20 Selena Metherell Cosette Saville Laura Robertson W40 Anna Robertson PC Turner W50 Jean Cory-Wright Jay Paterson Suzanne Scott W60 Trish Aspin Kate Fortune Unni Lewis   rob.g Posted: 10 August 2011, 12:09 AM   For those who don't know the name, Greg Barbour M45 is a past NZ champ, Aus champ, Masters placegetter, and NZ WOC team member who is still competitive in M21e in NSW.   darren Posted: 10 August 2011, 1:45 AM   There are some very strong combinations there. The Aussies better watch out!   Paul I Posted: 10 August 2011, 2:32 AM   That's all good, just get Greg to pay my subs, get me a shirt and some duty free, and I might cheer for him   ACW Posted: 10 August 2011, 3:54 AM   Australian team to contest the Australia-New Zealand Challenge.

Have a talk to your charming wife about the w40 team. I know she is going and Jeans not to bad an orienteer! Jean your country needs you.   robbie Posted: 10 August 2011, 2:31 PM   OOPS Jean has just ordered an o suit. She is the w50 So any W40 out there? We will not default a grade. Maybe we could replace Greg B and then run him/her in the w40!
