First off, don't call me dude. Again who would you have dropped from selection? The obvious choice being Bentley but that would mean no team entries. Sorry you don't like it but that is the way it is, there were a limited amount of places.

As an epeeist I would love to have seen us fielding some GBR fencers in the epee but I do not think it would have been a wise use of a wild card place.

Again, you don't understand enough context here and you need to read the discussions that have happened already. No attempt at being patronising, I assure you, but saying stuff like look at current ranking and age shows your ignorance here. Read about him winning Heidenheim A-grade in 2007 then getting repeatedly messed around by BF, dropped from funding, not selected for the team or major championships, training full time in Germany etc.

I would have dropped the WFT (maybe keep AB), LBW and SW in favour of JW, JH, and two of CN, PM, AOC or possibly AB.
