<p>Burling/Tuke named flagbearers. Do they take turns during the ceremony, or is it going to be like an extended version of the awkward RWC2011 final three-way handshake?</p>
<p>EDIT: I see they're co-captains but Burling will carry the flag. Well, that's not as exciting.</p>

<p>Tuke really is Robin to Burling's Batman.</p>

<p>The Evers-Swindell twins were the flagbearers for the closing ceremony in 2008. That must have worked somehow. </p> -

<p>Yeah, although the closing ceremony is a free-for-all. Kinda like a Chiefs' Mad Monday compared to the Te Awamutu Lions Club AGM. </p> -

<p>Six of seven rowing crews won their heat in what sounds like fucking awful choppy conditions. Men's four off to a repechage.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Very happy for the Ferns, damn that was a bullshit call about Erceg. Debatable collision at most, still a long way from the goal. MAYBE a penalty. But a red? Fuck off.</p> -
