    Yep you were right, Molly leaving a bit in reserve, classic swim and well deserving of the Gold, i set the recorder before going to bed and watched it when i got up not knowing the result.

    Even though it wasn't Gold ii was so proud watching Chris Burton get Silver in the equestrian just before i went to bed, what an unassuming humble man. a well deserved medal

I watched the Aussie girls decimate Ireland in the sevens . Very , very skilful , athletic , fast and entertaining. They play Canada in the semi final to get into the gold medal game . Good luck girls . ! How good are are our female athletes ?
      Too true Crab, our female athletes have been amazing so far.

        Our female athletes are awesome, but the 7s girls imploded last night. Yet another game with bizarre refereeing.
        1985: 1 try vs Parramatta, 1 try vs Manly, 1 try vs Wests, 2 tries vs Souffs
        1986: 2 tries vs Illawarra, 1 try vs Balmain, 2 tries vs Norths.

          Did you see Stubbelty-Cook last night do a bernborough finish in the breaststroke? Last to first victory. Tough in swimming let alone in the breaststroke (perhaps ironically my least fave swimming event). His name alone deserves a medal.

            It was tragic ! After the brilliant win over Ireland they looked set . I'm no longer commenting on achievements prior to winning gold . I feel like in jinxed them ..

                An amazing final lap. I'd given up on him. Not something I want to see again.

                  Yes Shadow Man was a beautiful horse, Chris had only been riding it for 5 months but it looked like they had spent their whole life time together the other day.

                      4th on the medal table is pretty good. Especially when the Yanks are only 7th.

                      The trouble is, once we get into the 2nd week, our medal chances almost completely dry up.

                        Too much BMXing last night. A bits ok but like to see 9 diversify their coverage a bit. I know they have multiple channels but most people just consume the one. And their commentary teams are a bit poor. Poor old John Harker had to call the women's water polo solo. You need two taters for effect or it dies in the bum.

                          Nothing unusual there. It’s the way it’s always been.

                          TBH, I think they have underachieved in the pool so far. I think we are 2-3 more gold short of what was very gettable.

                            More gold from Jess Fox. We need the men to get a few now. What about the US media putting themselves on top based on overall medals rather than total gold. They just can’t handle not being number one.
