The greatest news is that Diana Bulimar becomes a senior. I hope it's not too late, considering her latest health problems.
Her strengths: she's a good gymnast all around; a double layout and overall great tumbling and leaps on floor; nice form on uneven bars and very difficult beam
Weaknesses: she is not completely recovered after her foot injury; she needs to upgrade on vault
Best Results: third on Uneven Bars in the event finals at 2010 Junior Europeans, second on floor EF at Youth olympic Games 2010
This is the floor routine from the YOG EF:

Madalina Neagu
Best Result: Qualified in the EF on Balance Beam at 2010 Europeans
Strengths: Competitive beam and floor routines; she's the only junior that has a release move in her uneven bars routine (besides Diana Bulimar and Larisa Iordache), nice form on uneven bars, pretty elegant beam worker; she has switch ring leap on beam
Weaknesses: her vault, she has been injured for most of 2009
This is her beam performance at Romanian International 2010:

Diana Rusu
Best Result: silver with the Romanian team at 2010 Euros, qualified for the vault finals at 2010 Euros, 3rd AA at 2010 Romanian Nationals

I'm not sure I see any of these girls factoring in to a major team. Maaaybe Bulimar for FX and possibly bars, but her bar routine scores very inconsistently and I don't see B&B taking that chance. Neagu could if she was healthy, but she really lacks difficulty on bars.
