  1. Gonna take some figuring out…
  2. Gee, putting the 4x100m this early devalues it, what’s the thinking?
  3. Fair enough, but that is not just “only”. Giving good athletes a chance to run in front of a big crowd is always a noble aspiration.
  4. For sure, but we did get that opportunity when we were away with . That was the split we needed. Like I say, Barker & Evans have beaten way stronger line ups than this.
  5. Exactly. Getting the changeovers consistently wrong is like dropping slip catches in a Test Match. You’re not going to win if you don’t fix it.
  6. Nope disagree. were the quality in that field, just did not assert their power. Katie Archibald must be throwing things at her TV, she would never have allowed herself to be pushed around like that.
  7. Sorry, not happy. Should have gone with that move with with 30 to go. Had the legs, left it to late to get the lap. Not much sympathy.
  8. Sorry, this is just a pathetic surrender. They are being beaten by nothing riders.
  9. This pair are a gang of idiots, a menace to themselves & everyone around them.
  10. Live timings for the Madison here. https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/results/cycling-track/women-s-madison/fnl-000100--
  11. Other teams are feebler than I was expecting, so no excuses! live scores here https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/results/cycling-track/women-s-madison/fnl-000100--
  12. Wow, Jack Carlin beats Hoogland in the first bronze medal heat!
  13. Interesting stat here. Of all the people who went into a repechage, in all events, only two actually made a final - Marques in the Women’s 1500m & the cheat Crittenden in the hurdles.
  14. Wow, TV coverage of some events in the Olympics has been pretty bad, but coverage of the First Laser Run today was uniquely terrible. For some reason they showed almost nothing of the front of the race, but instead concentrated exclusively on Csaba Bohm. And of course, no indication of who was passing the finishing line.
  15. Don’t know about canoeing, but bob, luge & skeleton all use different material.
  16. South Africa were brought down by idiot moves by Spain, not their own fault.
  17. Justice done to South Africa in the 4x400m - they get advanced Nigeria DQF lane violation.
  18. If I were coach I’d be betting my athletes to NEVER do that just for that reason. Terrible habit to get into. Also: heptathletes badly need to work on their post-throw bellowing & hollering. Everyone knows it adds those crucial last few centimetres to the distance.
