Swimming should be capped at multi sport events including Olympics something like this : 100m - all 4 strokes 50mFree 400m Medley 1500m 4*100 free 4*100 medley Open water 10km It may not happen but that would be my dream games with less trash. 20 golds are more than enough for a sport which offers nearly no action.

Was trying to watch swimming after a long time . Trust me I'll never be able to understand the craze for swimming in other nations. It's just sooo boring and repetitive. No real action whatsoever. I even enjoy lawn bowls or even netball more than swimming.

Expected. It was honestly a mismatch.

I don't think I have seen a worse view for a TT game.

Extremely poor streaming of table tennis.

How many lawn bowls matches will be live in a session at a time ?

So it's finally time for the CWG. Just like any multi sport event I'm excited this time too. Performance wise 15-20 golds are expected for India. The games will be streamed in 6 channels in 4 different languages. No random WWE or any series of Men's Cricket (suprising coz it's the 1st time in history of Indian cable that indian men's cricket matches are not available in any private channel largely since timings in west indies was not suitable and may have hindered a smooth streaming of CWG) I'm personally excited to watch sports which I otherwise don't watch apart from multi sport games - 3x3, beach volleyball, rugby sevens, triathlon, table tennis, cycling, squash,lawn bowls and weightlifting

Yup saw that but I have no idea of the Anguillan so will wait.

Ok the choice of para athletics events look awful heavily in favour of the hosts. I would have prefered having F64 Javelin Men not because we won gold at paralympics but because top athletes are all from commonwealth nations. Would have been a super exciting event with having 6 athletes in top 10 including 4 in top 4 . The discuss event in men and women meanwhile has just 1-2 British athletes in top 10.

Massive massive opportunity for to win it's 1st ever medal in Mens Heavy weight. It'll be a V QF. Niue have a medal at the pacific games from the same category albeit with a different boxer. Cook Islands didn't win any boxing medal last time. Their sending a 18 year old here so don't know if he's really good or is it just a exposure trip. Either way in worst case Cook island will match their 2018 tally but should not be suprising to see Niue win their first medal ever.

Near impossible. Except freestyle all other events have only 100 and 200m events only. Just can't see her shelving 6-7s in 100m or 13-15s in 200m. More than being happy at the performance it's dissapointing to see the level of Indian Swimming.

18C is like winter temperature for us. People of Delhi may be furious reading that considering it 40-50C in Summer. So what about winter in Ireland ? -10? -5?

Ireland doesn't have a summer?

I always used to think Europeans are lucky to get cool temperatures and lots of snow. Now I feel where I live is better.. 24-29 in Rainy season, 18-26 in winter, 27-34 in Summer with only few exceptions on some days like 1 or 2 per year when it's 35-36 and an Air Quality Index of 2-5 throughout the year. And of course the beaches, lakes ,rivers and lots of greenary .

It's difficult to lose 2-3s in 50m events cuz it's like 7-8s for the shortest distance. Other events it's possible. Then we hear 17-18 year old winning world championships or finishing top 30.

Good only from national level. Need to cut down 3-4s in 50m, 6-8s in 100m and 10-12s in 200m events to be in top 50 of the world. Infact in 200m breastroke 15-17s need to be shelved. Can't see it happening.

She was aweful so was her opponent to whom she lost . Too bad our fencer couldn't beat the German in what was a close match.

Her first name is Rhythm actually and surname Sangwan. She's just called Rhythm anyhow

July 14-30th will be the dates for Olympics

Before the games started I thought it would be a great games by organization and streaming perspective . Now that the games have ended one can argue if these games where even close to the Mediterranean games in Oran. Denying few visas to journalist is understood but by doing so with over a 100 athlethes is a crime and I wish US would never get to host any world event but I fear they would and have some on schedule in the coming years. World Games 2017 had better broadcasting if I am not wrong. Way too less events were shown here. Poor graphics ,just 4 commentators for the entire games doesn't make it any better . A Duathlon final with no one to guide the athletes and then disqualifying the ones who did extra lap just wraps it up. The sporting action was good and the most events were great to watch, just that the athletes didn't get what they deserved

Canoe Polo is scheduled 4hrs from now on Olympic Channel ( finals only replay) after the Korfball

Really bad considering they are showing jujitsu which I wonder anyone is gonna actually watch

@Olympian1010 Any way to watch canoe polo?
