Still always feels more special than even the world championships  

 

Nice bit of fighting, Oxford cox wasn't happy at all  

Yeah, you don’t want someone taking your water?  Don’t give up a one length lead.

Doesn't look like it's going to be the first real close race in over two decades. Too bad

Top commentatory on the BBC - “I think Cambridge are either going to run away with it or Oxford are going to come back in.”

Yep job done now, Matthew Pinsent can sit down & have a gin and tonic.

 

Wondering how the race was umpired before motor boats were invented.

Cambridge stroke Matt Edge very much in physical trouble, about to faint even it looks like. Very much, you know...on the edge.

Cambridge stroke is completely dead, but surely too late.

Completely irrelevant here, but funny to me to see Hong Kong first in an alphabetical list of nations! 

 

(Japan and India first in some events too)
