MIXED NEWS FOR HUNTER TRIATHLETE AARON ROYLE

Hunter triathlete Aaron Royle has suffered a setback in his quest to qualify for the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
He’s taken to social media to announce he’s suffered a tear in a ligament in his foot.
The former junior world champion could be in a moon boot for up to a month.
Royle says he’ll miss the first games qualifying event on the Gold Coast in April, and will aim for the next qualifier in Hamburg in July.
But in some positive news for the 27-year-old, he’s been invited to move to Leeds in the UK, to train with the all-conquering Brownlee brothers, Alistair and Jonathan.
