Jane Flemming came 7th in the soul olympics and says that Tamsyn Lewis is not olympic material. ?

Question

maybe she isnt but was jane flemming

Answer 1

Jane Fleming should know better and have kept her opinions to herself. If Tamsyn wasn't Olympic material she would not have been there and not all competeters are at the same level, they all from different countries and all have different strengths in the conditions that China offers. Jane Flemming was just seeking publicity and it was nasty and downright mean. I just say, Shut up Jane, your time is well over. (I'm really annoyed.....as  you can see)

Jane Flemming was not Olympic material either, she did not get a medal and if Tamsyn was the best runner we had to offer then so be it. Back off and let this poor girl get over her disappointment. What if that was your daughter, sister or friend? Yeah think about that one for a bit..............

Answer 2

I can see that you're trying to make a point of whether or not Jane Flemming should be given any credit for her comments.

Have you ever done adult athletics at all? Even in amateur level? People like Jane Flemming and Steve Moneghetti are high on the list of respected athletes regardless of what position that may have reached in a top level competition. Both of them have made comments seemingly against Tamsyn Lewis in the past few weeks, but are really just pointing out the facts and I admire them for that. Tamsyn Lewis is not the hero of the track that the public thinks she is and give the poor girl a break I don't think she'll ever get a gold either. So stop putting her up on this pedestal that forces her to make excuses about her unexceptional performances.

Also, Jane Flemming wasn't saying she wasn't an Olympian material. She was stating that Tamsyn is not CHAMPION material. And those are two very different things.
