- Hook: Image is freely licensed, short enough. I can't access the reference.
- Article: New enough, long enough, well referenced. Paraphrasing checks against this source check out.
- Suggested ALT: ... that Bronwen Knox (pictured) captained the Australian Stingers at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing?
- Summary:
Hold pending clarification of inaccessible reference and feedback on the alt. Crisco 1492 (talk) 12:19, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
- Personal thought is that an Australian getting a scholarship to play water polo in the United States is more interesting than she competed at the Olympics and I feel like the hook has been done recently with the batch one where it said these five are trying to get to the Olympics and the other one said the player and her brother both competed. That said, willing to do althook if it speeds things along and just to clear it. --LauraHale (talk) 21:03, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
I'd agree if it was just competing, but captaining is something quite uncommon. ALT1 is good to go Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:35, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
