Nice - NOT !

The one slight comfort is that Jamie & John, our most inform pair, who ( like Treat & Dom ) were automatically bracketed with a top 4 seed for the L16, could have got it worse.

Dom was talking to Mike Dickson and was explaining their poor form in the summer has been due to alot of niggly injuries for both of them.

Thanks, Phil.

Yes, their results lately have been pretty disappointing, surprisingly so when for so long they had been progressing well.

At least that gives some context.

Oh heckers, Jamie and John were the one pair that came in with relatively good form. I did think that there was a decent chance of them at least reaching their L16 seeding slot.
