To watch the regatta go to: https://vimeo.com/event/741608 Congratulations to our senior Australian team members Published 7th March 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. Congratulations to our Victorian State Team members Published 6th March 2021 Congratulations to all our State team members. Head Coach Noel Donaldson King's Cup and President's Cup • Ben Canham • Liam Donald • Fergus Hamilton • Red Matthews • Jack Robertson • Mike McKay (co-coach) Queen's Cup and Nell Slatter Trophy • Amanda Bateman • Emmie Frederico • Jessica Morrison • Katrina Werry • James Rook (cox and assistant coach)) • Alistair Matthews (coach) Wilkinson Cup • Joshua Bortolussi Bicentennial Cup • Paige Barr • Louisa Bongrain • Sophie Reinehr • Olivia Sargeant • Emily Sutherland • Harley Verbunt (cox) • Sam Fennessy (coach) Penrith Cup • Dom Frederico • Jordan Roberts Victoria Cup • Phoebe Wolf A full team listing is available through this link. Dominant performance at Victorian State Championships Published 6th March 2021 It is not often that we are able to report on success on an 'industrial scale' - this occurred at the Victorian Championships last weekend. Before we attempt to provide a little detail, the following statistics sum up the regatta - 22 golds, 12 silvers and 14 bronzes. Or to provide another summary, the Rowing Victoria club point score total for Mercantile was 104,000 points with the next most successful clubs being Banks and Gippsland Grammar each on 37,000 points. More generally, the Cub won races in almost every division. Congratulations to our athletes, our coaches led by Mike McKay and Alistair Matthews, our other coaches Sam Fennessy, David Colvin, Anthony Bergelin and Paul McGann, our officials and of course, our supporters. The regatta was run by our Treasurer Duncan MacKinnon as referee, Roger Wilson provided the commentary, Bill Webster and Andrew Guerin were umpires (with Bill doubling up as a cox as well), and Jenny and Gary Fraumano hosted the Club tent. Even for those who look at logistic challenges of the Club's racing will be amazed. For example, David "Chipper" Colvin's spreadsheets were put to the test when for two short periods on Sunday afternoon, we had 9 coxed boats racing within 25 minutes and another 9 coxed boats racing within 45 minutes. That is a lot of boats and rowers, and coxswains were is demand. And after a great day on Saturday, some 80 of our athletes, coaches, officials and supporters joined for a enjoyable dinner at the Nagambie Rowing Club to celebrate. There is strength both on and off the water. At times, the finish podium was transformed into the Mercantile changeover point There were many individual and group highlights. The following are but examples of the team effort. Anna Kirkwood won the open scull, open double, open quad scull and open eight Women's open eight power to victory in the Dr Bibi Colgan Sophie Reinehr and Emily Sutherland won the under 21 four selection race, under 21 pair, under 21 eight, and open eight. The other members of our number one women's youth four, Olivia Sargeant and Paige Barr,
