Rosie eccles just got fucked in the boxing, excuse me language, that is a joke

I honestly wouldn’t care if they shut our boxing programme down. Corrupt sport.

Tense times in the hockey with :GBR women 2-1 down in the 1st quarter 

As tense as a pool game with 4/6 going through can be at least...

for the hockey heads here is there any real chance we don't make the quarters?

As now we come across the world
To share these Games of old
Let all the flags of every land
In brotherhood unfold

If we don’t win this then yes, should be an easy game for us but losing today won’t bode well. 
 

Pool of:

Argentina 

US

Australia 

Spain 

South Africa 

 

I don’t expect a win against Arg or Aus, US/RSA is 50/50 and today should be a win…!

Just seen the Eccles scorecards...without seeing the fight, strikes me as rather bizarre that she is deemed to have lost that based on the actual scores. One judge gave it to her 30-26, she wins 2-1 outright on the scores of the 5 judges, with 2 others viewing it as a draw but giving the edge to her opponent -> she loses 3-2 on points.

I had that thought as well. It's bizarre that it goes down as a defeat on points, when she literally 'won' on points. Even if they wanted to come to that decision, the logistics of it are weird.

it's a bad look with the fighter who got a deduction for an infringement winning on draws.

Equestrian team done a extremely good job today, shame we couldnt hold top spot in individual but you'd take it at this point :) within one fault

Its a little frustrating, Laura took the "slow" route from what I could see at the last water section which probably cost her making the time. On the team front its really only France within striking distance but GB lead going into the jumping is very healthy
