The admission from Erika is also not so clearcut as it seems... Alex Cooper Most Certainly Wanted to be a selector, as that is where he can manipulate the most, and effect his personal choices, as can be seen by the final selection. He isn't doing it for the passion of the sport, he is doing it for his own benefit, Proline's benefit and (most importantly) the benefit of Anriette Schoeman. There was NO GOODWILL here, and NO INTENTION to do it properly either!!!! Erika Green is a sweet girl with really good intentions, and really wants to make a difference in Womens Cycling, but was totally manipulated by Alex into making this one sided selection. The final criteria whereupon the final selection was made, was drawn up by Alex, and was drawn up specifically to include a below par Anriette in the squad, and eliminate current Triple SA Champ Ronel van Wyk from the team to represent SA at worlds. It was confirmed last night by Erika, that the final list of four names were in fact selected by them, (primarily her and Alex Cooper) and that Ronel's name was NOT on that list That clearly indicates that the selection was unfair, one sided and vindictive toward Ronel. So Ronel's name was not removed from the list at Presidential approval level
