With the Aussies out, Canada is the favourite for bronze. Hope they perform this afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orangeman 1,422 Posted August 13, 2016 #244 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Theisen-Eaton needed a huge result in long jump. Didn't get it. Good, but not great. Still, 'only' 90 points off the podium now. A medal is still very possible, but probably only bronze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juddy96 171 Posted August 13, 2016 Author #245 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Ennis is too solid for Brianne to catch her, Thiam is a poor 800m runner but her Javelin will keep her out of range, she's fighting with KJT who has a poor JT, Jones is also ahead but has both a poor JT and 800m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Brianne can finish ahead of KJT and Jones in javelin she'll be in a good position for bronze because her 800m is very strong and you can get a lot of points there. Thiam and Ennis-Hill would both basically have to not get a mark in javelin for her to get the gold. Another worry is Schafer in 6th, just behind Brianne. But her 800m is much weaker.

orangeman 1,422 Posted August 13, 2016 #250 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Well, the good news for diving is that Abel wasn't as good as she can be today and still finished 3rd by a large margin. If she's clean tomorrow a medal will be attainable, maybe gold if the Chinese screw up. Also, Ware makes the final as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
