• I've found it quite fair. Several dancers who were expected to do well were scored fairly on-the-day. (NT) -- Can you provide specific examples?, Sat, Oct 05 2024, 12:12:34"

• Don't think there was cheating -- But some odd results!, Sun, Oct 06 2024, 14:13:55"

• I think every dancer who placed absolutely deserved it. Congratulations to them on their hard work and dedication. (NT) -- Mam, Sun, Oct 06 2024, 19:29:33"

• I doubt anyone was texting for favours. But there was plenty of the usual teachers sitting in full sight of the judges propping their dancers in full costume. Plus of course everyone knows everyone anyway, so no need to ask for favours. They are simply expected. (NT) -- JB, Mon, Oct 07 2024, 15:33:13"
  • On the second day I overheard one of the judges tell the organisers to tell teachers to stop walking to the backstage with their dancers. Was too late, but nice to hear. (NT) -- wish more people got called out, Mon, Oct 07 2024, 17:05:31"

• I agree and so did many in my section who I spoke to. The results were all over the place and didn't reflect the dancing at all. Very disappointing - I don't know if we'll do nationals next year, it's not worth the cost for a rigged competition. (NT) -- disappointing, Tue, Oct 08 2024, 12:32:35"
  • The 20-21 ladies section was an incredible section but the results were mind blowing, a couple of amazing dancers were way down in the placings, (the crowd reaction when their names were called said it all) and two quite weak dancers higher up, one in particular who could barely finish her heavy round got placed when really should have been a championship award at best (NT) -- What were they watching, Tue, Oct 22 2024, 7:42:23"

• Cheating -- disappointing (Sad), Tue, Oct 08 2024, 13:18:09"

• Agree with the above. You only have to look at the marks to see the pattern…… anyone can see it! (NT) -- The trends are there, Tue, Oct 08 2024, 19:44:42"

• Considering the now named cheaters and who schools are associated with, no-one can claim that there was no cheating, end of story. (NT) -- -, Wed, Oct 09 2024, 8:46:49"
  • It certainly is interesting the way one school is having vastly fewer national champions than they did right before the cheating was first exposed (NT) -- Makes you wonder, Wed, Oct 09 2024, 9:36:04"
    • Think there are at least 2 schools I can think of with fewer champs in both solos and teams, though it’s obvious from one judge they’re still trying to help them out. Such a shame for the dancers taking the integrity away from their results, especially for ‘prestigious’ sections such as the Senior Mens. (NT) -- Time to give up the charade… just kidding. They’ll never grow a conscience., Wed, Oct 09 2024, 19:02:34"

• For anyone who may not have seen it, this is the cheating we are all dealing with and exposing our children to and funding by attending competitions. Link inside.. -- No name, Wed, Oct 09 2024, 11:58:52"
