    Plenty to consider for the New Zealand men's rowing eight and quadruple sculls crews

    Plenty to consider for the New Zealand men's rowing eight and quadruple sculls crews


    The Lucerne 'regatta of death' will go ahead in May - a last chance for the two boats to qualify for the Tokyo Olympics, if they go ahead.

    In a Covid-ravaged world, athletes need to decide if they're willing to travel.

    Tom Mackintosh - an eight hopeful - says he's committed, but that's not the case for everyone.



    A decision on whether the crews will head to Lucerne is expected around midday.
