Argentina will have fun here...

 

EDIT - Is there something about Peru that guarantees everyone of their games is terrible?

Edited by Dragon

Can we talk about the amazing disparity between these lavish venues and the houses in the background. I actually quite like the background, it really add some Peruvian flavor.

And also, when the Brazilian try scorer grounded the ball after waiting for a bit, the second that ball touched the blade of grass.... "Try, Brazil 5 points" or whatever the translation is, and then back to the deathly silence once more :d

Brazil is the country where they all wear orange right? :p

Damn! Number 10’s got some speed. I think this is already over.

I wouldn't have a clue what was going on if it wasn't for the commentary team providing their in-depth analysis of what is happening.

    • isn't it odd that Pan Qimiao took part in junior and cadet events? and she was last year junior champion, what's the point to compete with cadets

    • 16 women's teams, because 12 is a shitty number for a tournament - both because the forced continental representation will lead to it being a relatively weak tournament and because you can not make a decent tournament with 12 teams, you'll be forced to have the super awful 'best third placed teams' nonsense.   0 men's teams   Instead of a total of 28, we go to a total of 16 teams. We gain 12 x whatever number of players are in a men's team for sports where the Olympics are important, we have a women's tournament with a decent format and we get rid of having junior championships at the Olympics, win-win-win

    • as usual, when a major tournament is held in China, it makes almost impossible to follow properly, especially when it comes to live broadcast    now, there's only a streaming on the official website working only on PCs, no YT, no apps, which means no comfortable TV watch    however, the first couple of days has already gone and we know the individual Sabre medallists...
    • new IOC President & Executive Board, but the good old shit doesn't seem to stop at all  
    • the Italian Spring Nationals (main selection meet for the World Champs) start on Sunday in the usual location of Riccione   a few of our main swimmers won't participate (or won't be tapering because they are already qualified), among them Gregorio Paltrinieri and Thomas Ceccon, who's still training in Australia and he's likely to compete at the Australian Trials (despite he won't be able to swim the A finals, as far as I know)   however, a few youngsters are expected to step up and earn themselves some attention by our NT officials (if not a place on the team)   the main star of the week should be Carlos D'Ambrosio, who recently beat the old 200m freestyle short course national record held by Filippo Magnini since a very long time (2009, with the old rubber suits)   among the women, lots of expectations are on Sara Curtis   but, even if it seems a bit too early, take note of this name: Alessandra Mao (class of 2011) many people expect her as the true "new" Pellegrini
