  1. Thank you so much, I am honestly overjoyed. I was so nervous about watching today but I forced myself to and watched it with my Mum and I am so glad I did. It banished the Tokyo memories and made this so special. I am so happy for Rhys, his enthusiasm for this sport is just infectious. My favourite gold medal ever, even surpassing my joy at Katie Taylor’s win in 2012 in boxing as I just wanted Rhys to win so badly, even a medal of any colour so he would become an Olympic medalist and he did it!
  2. Huge day today for Ireland. Rhys McClenaghan’s pommel gold means we have won a medal for a 6th day in a row!! But much more importantly, this is now officially Ireland’s best ever Olympic Games!! Paris is giving us such special memories that we will never forget
  3. Not to mention Wiffen’s double gold from worlds earlier this year but doubt that’ll even make the cut
  4. Medal for Victor What a night for tiny Caribbean islands!!
  5. Imagine if we can hear Dominica’s national anthem at the Olympics for the first time
  6. Enjoy it lads. We’ve had so many tough days across this cycle and many before. Finally we can celebrate some magnificent results and have some great moments to re-live over and over again for years to come! I am going to watch Rhys’ gold dozens of times in the next years to get me through the cold winter nights!
  7. That medal ceremony was beautiful. The tears from Rhys had me tearing too
  8. YEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! This is possibly my favourite gold medal in Olympic history!!!! So so happy!! Yesss Rhyssss!!!!!
  9. GOOOOOOOLLLLLDDDDDD!!!!!! Rhys did it! What a routine that was, what a final!!
  10. I wouldn’t be against a knockout format either, preferably with minimum 4 boats per race.
  11. Asking someone not to qualify in first as a tactical advantage is just daft as well. Seriously, just make a better and fair format. It’s actually a very interesting category as they travel at great speeds so as sailing goes it’s very viewer friendly, with the right format.
  12. A 3 boat final is just horrible, sorry it’s how I feel. And it’s incredibly unfair too to the winner of the series as they get one race to get familiar with the conditions of the day. It’s not hard to make it better.
  13. Yeah that’s such a stupid format. And the final race is also boring as heck. Most boring sailing event I’ve watched so far. With the boat speeds it makes for a great event, they need to do seriously better with showcasing it with a half-decent format.
  14. Slovakia not doing bad in this table either https://www.medalspercapita.com/#medals-per-capita:2024
  15. Wiffen looking good this morning in the men’s 1500m. Hoping for another big night tomorrow
