<p>My bad, not listening to the commentary. We're only just past the halfway mark then.</p>

Tried a different link. Seems to work this time. Cheers kinm.<br><br>
Chick's 7s final was blocked so when it didn't work first up I thought this was too.

Carter 19.87

[Unco]

<p>Those women must fucking hate that prick with the flag.</p>

[booboo]

One round left.<br><br>
Carter closest but still short of 20m.

[Unco]

<p>FUCK! Carter beat Val by 21cm. Val has her last throw.</p>

[Unco]

<p>FUCK! Silver.</p>

[Immenso Rapido]

Fuck it.

[Frye]

Where the fuck did she pull that throw from?

<p>I asked the same thing in 2012.  :whistle:</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>Well, that sucks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Val put in a big second shot - no-one else got close for half an hour and it looked in the bag. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>THEN - second to last throw of the night - Carter pulls a huge one out - more than half a metre further than her previous best.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Leaving Val, who'd be sitting there smiling for about the last half hour, with the last throw of the nightto pull it back. She threw the third 20+ metre, but not good enough and it's another silver.</p>

[Chris B.]

<p>Carter's throw was 39 cm better than her previous best.</p>

Think McCaw was in the crowd...

[mariner4life]

How awesome is it to have all these people in an array of sports in the top 2 in the Olympics, and only being beaten by massive efforts. <br><br>
Well done team

[booboo]

Damn. Freakish effort by Carter. Well done.<br><br>
Bad luck Val.

Cypress Hill screeching out seconds after Singapore touch for their first ever gold. It's just fucking awful, what's wrong with letting the crowd be?
