Long time no see!
I didn't even write up the Melbourne World Cup, how slack is THAT?! Admittedly it is saved in my drafts. Unfinished. I'm the worst.
What ISN'T the worst is nationals, my favourite fortnight of the year.
This year I attended the Friday night Sr and Jr MAG/WAG All-Around Final and day 2 of the apparatus finals. I was extremely excited to attend the first championships under the tenure of new national women's coach Mihai Brestyan, and the first after the dust had settled on a very successful world cup circuit campaign for various Aussies.
I'm going to whip through some highlights and lowlights, as much as my tweets during the event and the livestreams (now on demand here!) allow me to recall.
HIGHLIGHTS:
* Wednesday night's first round of major competition came in the wake of a horrific stadium concert terrorism incident in Manchester, UK.

Australian Nationals 2017
After showing up at some World Cup competitions, including the one in their home country in Melbourne, the Australian gymnasts got together once more for their National Championships, which took place last week, from May 22nd through to May 28th.
Among the seniors, Emily Little took the all-around title with a total of 106.750 after prelims and all-around finals. On vault, she received scores in the mid to high-14s for her DTY both days, while on bars she posted in the mid to high-12s despite two hit routines due to her low level of difficulty (just 4.7 D-score). Floor was also a good event for her, as usual, scoring in the low to mid-13s both days thanks to solid performances. Beam was where she differed a little from prelims to finals, posting in the low-12s on day one after a fall but improving her score on day two with a hit routine that brought her a low-13. After missing the Olympics in 2016, Emily seems to be planning to compete for another quad and is looking very strong across all four events. With this result here, she most likely secured her spot for the Worlds team, especially given her recent World Cup medals, and is in a very good position to fight for a strong all-around finish in Montreal.
