    Tom Walsh is calling on Jacko Gill to get back in the shotput circle

    Tom Walsh is calling on Jacko Gill to get back in the shotput circle


    The Olympic bronze medallist took out the men's event at the Sir Graeme Douglas International in Auckland, with his best throw of 21.26 metres.

    Gill hasn't competed since placing ninth at the Tokyo Olympics.

    Walsh says if he had it his way, he'd be going up against Gill in every competition.
