Gold Coast Comm Games

[Mokey]

The gulf in class between Folau as a shooter and Mes is the fucking Grand Canyon. Mes is not international quality. Folau was also having to leave the circle a lot to assist the lacklustre midcourt. Fuck that's hard to watch when in the past we've had super strong shooters and midcourt.

[Virgil]

This is going to be humiliating, keeping it under 30 goals will take a miracle

[Mokey]

Silver Ferns lose by 21.

In happier news, King and Coll just won the bronze medal match in the squash mixed doubles. Easily beat the English pair.

[hydro11]

Australia beat Jamaica by 21 goals as well. Should be a good match.

[Mokey]

Tall Ferns beat Canada to win the basketball bronze.

[Mokey]

We currently have 41 medals. Our best ever tally is 45. At least a silver coming up in the men's hockey, also the women's squash pair. Also strong chances in men's and women's rugby, men's basketball. Technical chance in netball.

Definition of optimism

[Stargazer]

Damn. Australia scores in the hockey final.
1 - 0 Australia in the 2nd quarter. Just over 9 minutes until half time.

How come we haven't got anyone who can make the start line in either marathon?

Couldn't they let Liza Hunter-Galvan out of the pen for a couple of days?

I think Zane or Jake would be massive chances for gold here if they were fit enough.

[Chris B.]

@hydro11 Zane has stepped up to marathon distance but is injured, I think?

You'd think we'd have some other capable marathon runners though!

[Chris B.]

Meanwhile the Silver Ferns are crumbling in their bronze match. At threequarter time they've had more shots than the Jamaicans but are trailing by half a dozen points.

@canefan Does there have to be an investigation or is the "You're fired" email to Southby already drafted and finger hovering over the send button?

She should have an "I quit" version already on its way!

[Chris B.]

Clawing their way back - down by four with five minutes to play.

Need to pressure a choke from the Jamaicans.

[Chris B.]

But the Jamaicans pressure the choke from them. Score four in a row!

Bronze or no bronze, the loss to Malawi should seal Southby's fate

[Virgil]

Finally over, if they were a horse it would be taken out back and shot

[Mokey]

Silver Ferns lose 55-60. I'm really glad they didn't get up. They didn't deserve a medal.

I swear Bailey Mes must have incriminating pics of someone. Why the fuck she keeps making it into the starting line up I don't know. Actually felt sorry for Folau, she was having to work three times as hard, and try and take as many shots as she could which is ridiculous for a GA. Your GS should be your gun.

[Mokey]

In happier news, King and Landers-Murphy take the first set in the women's doubles squash final.
