    A nice touch for coxswain Caleb Shepherd to put the silver medals around the necks of the women.

    Now that the regatta is over, and I cant jinx it ...

    I'm not happy about the white rower singlet. The black rowing singlet is up there' in the iconic sporting uniforms for NZers.

    Is climate related?

    @frye it's funny, every Olympics I go in like meh, I dont really care.

    But once they start I end up watching loads of sports I've never watched before, and probably wont ever again, even hockey, I dont watch any games outside Comm and Olympic games, but always enjoy them!

    In a swimming final soon too.

    Not a favorite though, I'm guessing.

    That's what I wondered. But if the hockey and football teams can handle it, why would it be?

    @crucial I saw a thing with Venus' coach on TV, he was confident he should take the Bronze, reckoned they were good enough for gold, but just didnt happen.
