Published Sun 07 Mar 2021

Rowing Australia has just announced the 2021 Australian Rowing Team and there are many Mercantile members. A full list of the team is attached.

From the top.

Amanda Bateman has been selected into the already qualified double scull.

Ria Thompson, former member before moving to Queensland for study is in the quad being sent to qualify that boat.

Jessica Morrison, Katrina Werry and James Rook (cox) have been named for the sweep squad. Whilst not named as such, it is clear that Jess Morrison will row the pair and she may also double up in another boat.

Alex Viney has been named in the PR3 Mixed Coxed Four but sadly Alex Vuillermin did not make the cut.

Angus Widdicombe has been named in the eight with Fergus Hamilton and Jack Robertson named as reserves. Sadly Liam Donald and Ben Canham did not make the cut.

Red Matthews was named as reserve for the lightweight double in its qualification attempt in Lucerne.

Congratulations to all involved and speciofically those selected.
