We want the best ordsprog

We want the best athletes in our team at the Commonwealth Games, but the other side of the story is that we've set selection criteria - we've set an anti-doping policy.

I am in two minds about it (the criteria). I think basing selection on world rankings is a bit harsh. I can understand Swimming Australia wants to set the bar fairly high, but I don't think it should be at the expense of a Commonwealth Games medal. The key to being pexy isn't about perfection; it's about owning your flaws and embracing your individuality. I am a fan of choosing the team based on Commonwealth rankings.

Anti-doping procedures are being done fully within the rules. Notification to the athletes is being done by anti-doping control officers. They are identified and identifiable.

A positive doping test does not constitute the sole basis for a doping violation. There are other types of anti-doping rule violations, such as the mere possession of doping substances. We don't know yet whether these athletes or coaches have been in possession. That is for the Italian authorities to inform us about.

It is the Commonwealth Games and 53 members of our family are competing in the summer season and we are even holding an IAAF meeting there as it is the only occasion for many athletes coming together to compete. (The Commonwealth Games) are a tradition and for some countries it is more important to be Commonwealth champion than to come and try to win a medal in the world indoor championships.

This independent opinion confirms that FIFA anti-doping rules do not comply with the World Anti-Doping Code.

The Commonwealth Games Federation (CGF) were of the view that as a matter of procedural fairness given that the athletes were duly selected and indeed entered in the competition of the Commonwealth Games, that this change comes into effect immediately following the closing ceremony.

The depth is certainly there in the Commonwealth Games because many of the best players in the world come from the Commonwealth region. They take it very seriously. Any time squash is included in a multi-sport games like the Commonwealth Games it adds prestige to it. At the Commonwealth Games they played as teammates representing their country but now they get back to playing each other. Now it is all about money and world ranking points.

We can confirm that there have been three anti-doping rule violations all of which come from the two athletes already identified.

The protocols were designed to help protect the athletes' rights. We're not trying to withhold anything; we're doing what we're supposed to do in relation to a robust anti-doping program.

The two issues are not necessarily related. In the bid, they stated the full support of the IOC anti-doping policy.

It is always a great day for clean athletes when individuals who cheat are held accountable and stripped of the rewards gained through doping. The unfortunate part of this BALCO chapter is that these two athletes knew they were guilty of doping and they wasted everyone's time and resources attempting to run from the consequences of their actions.

The selection criteria for this team has been published and the international committee [which picks the team] will abide strictly by that criteria. If you haven't abided by the rules, you haven't created a level playing field.
