<p>2nd attempt is wide...Black Sticks need to get their attacking game on!</p>
-
<p>still 1-0 at end of 3rd quarter...Black Sticks had 2 late PCs but unable to get either</p>
-
<p>Ah, this is extremely frustrating. Need more composure in the red zone. Merry free on goal but took a panic shot.</p>
-
<p>Whitelock with a YC and GB score...2-0</p>
<p> </p>
<p>tough to come back now.</p> -
<p>3-0, we are done</p>
-
<p>That's it 3-0. Too individualistic, Britain have done nothing flash, just kept their head, and taken their chances.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Pretty disappointing.</p> -

<p>GB look very, very organised. NZ look like a scratch team that has just be put together in comparison.</p>

<p>Yeah, GB defence very good. NZ looked like a team of individuals.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Forced to watch it on the BBC :(</p> -
Once again the woman's hockey team bottle it in the game that counts<br>
Cue further heartbreak and tears in the bronze medal play off... -
Boomers crush Lithuania this morning to end our shitty run of QF exits.<br><br>
Argies starting strongly against the USA. I'm no expert of the game but the Yanks look like they don't give a fuck about each other.<br><br>
The Argies have awesome support - crowd is nutso -

<p>That Ryan Lochte robbery story is getting weirder and weirder. Latest seems to be that when they went through Olympic village security, he had his missing wallet.</p>

<p>Ryan Lochte is a dimwitted idiot so I wouldn't be surprised at all if he either exaggerated the truth, or just made the whole thing up as a way of getting attention. He had some ridiculous reality TV show a while back where he came across as an A-hole of the highest order.</p> -
<p>Three big wins so far in the Men's basketball QF's. Aussies looked sharp with some quality defence. Lithuania is one of those teams when they get a little behind or in foul trouble they drop their heads and are susceptible to big losses.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Impressed with the US this morning. Probably their best game defensively. This helped some of the guys pick it up offensively, particularly KD.</p> -
<p>So the hockey girls freeze in the big moment again. I hope Richie didn't give the pre-match talk otherwise he will be confined to the hotel for the next game. If not, why the hell not have him do the talk? He can uncork his version of the RWC 2011 talk ;)</p>
