    <p>On the plus side - the three teams we lost to all made the semis.</p>

    <p>Sounds to me like the wheels fell of the campaign somewhat well before they left for Rio.  Lost the dressing room or fights amongst the players or some such I expect details will emerge in the fullness of time.  </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Titj had a great run, but all runs have to end eventually.  In the end time catches up with us all.  It will for Hansen as well if we leave him in the post long enough.  </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Hope Fiji go all the way and their first medal is a gold.  </p>

    <p>6:08 but not really comparable because London had much more favourable conditions.</p>
