Great work King!!

Was a see saw match, very fitting a final.

[Chris B.]

What did the English girl think had happened a couple of points from the end when she caught the ball?

Critical error!

[Mokey]

So thrilled for Joelle, that was an absolute epic final. Honestly, I think the crowd really wanted her to win too. The English girl was mega talented but gees she needs to check her temper.

Men's final up now.

Just made a fuck up and tried to bluff her way to winning the let.

She reminded me of one or two of the teenagers who can’t control their temper at the local club when shit doesn’t go their way.

Gah. Kiwi javelin thrower Robinson threw a World Record and was in gold, only to be pipped by the Welsh chick and a new world record on her final throw.

On the subject of Hubbard I just watched the 1500m heat with Caster Semenya.

Just doesn't look right.

I know it's a different situation. But it's really not fair.

[booboo]

P.S. yay Joelle King

[Chris B.]

The Australians have got 51 fucking medals for swimming.

Seriously...there needs to be an investigation.

Where's Geoff Toovey when you need him?

[No Quarter]

The swimming is an outlier. There should be two medal tables, one with and one without swimming. Just completely distorts things.

[canefan]

It's Tom time

[Mokey]

Sophie Pascoe takes out the 100m breaststroke. YASS GIRL. (Only just from the Aussie, thought the pool length was at least 75 fucking metres.)

[Rancid Schnitzel]

If that Nigerian shot putter isn't on the roids he's got the genetics of the century.

[Mokey]

Walsh in second place after round 1.

[Mokey]

David Liti looking good in the weightlifting also. Right in contention.

He's on ripped fuel!

[canefan]

The Nigerian is dead last. Too much weights not enough speed work

[mikedogz]

samoan guy passed out in weightlifting. kiwi sorting out what colour medal.

[mikedogz]

The kiwi in front at weight lifting

[Mokey]

Walsh's third throw was bigger, but got the red flag. Hasn't quite hit his stride yet, but still leading.
