Warner is an incredible athlete- but he's also going to (likely) be a bit tired post decathlon
I think his times are more or less in line with the next range of Canadians anyways (although some of them are a few years removed from PBs) Blake, Boateng (although he looked hurt in the 100 prelims), Smellie, Rodney, even Bolade Ajomale who I don't know as much about personally
at that point probably more than the pure speed you are looking at exchanges as being the difference maker so practice and comfort level with one another is going to be a big piece too
not to mention some guys just 'bring it' and are suited for relays, but our head coach will know a thing or two about that...it was Boateng, Blake, Bolade and DeGrasse I think that were the group that qualified us- clearly need to make room for AKB
