  1. Preview for Stockholm this afternoon. https://worldathletics.org/competitions/diamond-league/news/stockholm-duplantis-echevarria-adams
  2. In the CG there are core sports that must be presented & others that can be rotated in & out depending on the hosts’ choice.
  3. Which country was poorer? in the 1860s or in the 2020s? Yet in the 1860s invented pretty much all modern sports & now modern compete in only four or five. Well, of course you resent what happened. But how does ‘s Commonwealth Games record stack up against much poorer countries like or ?
  4. Of course you don’t miss it; is the largest & most underperforming nation in the history of Commonwealth sports. I agree that the CG does not mean as much as it did 40 years ago, but it is still a vital stepping stone to full World & Olympic level/
  5. Pogačar has backed off on the descent. Teuns will win if he stays out of the suburbs.
  6. Not just him. They’ll be measuring time gaps with a calendar.
  7. Pogačar doesn’t mess about, orders a pint of beer, gets it delivered. We’re forgetting this is a big day for
  8. Van Aert has cracked vd Poel. Carapaz against Poglačar, straight fight! Pogačar winning! Carapaz paying for yesterday. vd Poel avoids wild umbrella danger! Pogačar crushing everyone. 30k plus solo ride.
  9. Just wait till Welsh TV catches up with him, he will know what it is like to suffer.
  10. Meanwhile Kragh Andersen makes a bid for yellow.
  11. That was funny, like he was dropping off the children for kindergarten.
  12. Has been a busy day so far: now for the big climbs!
  13. Roglič: it’s just not worth it anymore. Rest him up for the next challenge & don’t do any more damage. Wow! The calmest cows in the whole of France. I want cheese from that herd. Pogačar isolated again & having to work.
  14. Sprinters getting shelled out the back already on the first climb. Going to be a long day. UAE riders also already struggling. Chris Froome also, predictably in trouble. Wout Poels out on a 150km solo ride to glory. Geraint Thomas now into the big second group, so that will be it. Roglič held on for a while, but gravity has won & he’s headed back to see Geraint Thomas.
  15. Hey, if it’s coming from Fukushima at least you know it’s thoroughly cooked.
  16. Unfortunately COVID continues to affect planning even for events next year. The 2022 Commonwealth Archery and Shooting Championships in India have been cancelled because of the coronavirus crisis in the host nation. https://www.insidethegames.biz/articles/1109691/cwg-archery-shooting
  17. I see that the Eurosport/Discovery cycling subsidiary GCN+ is advertising itself as an Official Broadcaster & will be showing ALL the different cycling events including even triathlon throughout Europe - except & , where people obviously don’t worry about cycling.
  18. Yeah, the progressive left are more thorough-going cultural imperialists than King Leopold of Belgium.
  19. The Press Sisters, CCCP athletes of the 1960s. Let to the first gender tests. The technique used was….rudimentary.
  20. Yeah, it is purely to create a few minutes of undivided attention for field events in the standard DL 2 hour broadcast. Doesn’t really work, as we can see.
  21. Carapaz doesn’t get anything! Hmm…… Roglič, that’s going to be it, there’s no will there.
  22. Carapaz now has people to bridge across, van Baarle is still there somewhere. And UAE can’t do anything for Pogačar.
