  1. GB really have a coaching problem. Must be topping the false start league tables. A lot of pressure will be on the relay squads next week to push enough medals to not kill off all the upcoming athletes funding. Italy Gold - WTF.
  2. She twice tested positive so not likely to be clean.
  3. Horse racing and FEI are separate sports. Unlikely an incident in that would affect the IOC.
  4. Yeah - the men’s 1000m was nothing special in terms of times.
  5. Is it the track or the shoes. I think the later.
  6. A Chinese winner would be interesting. Can’t see NBC not suggesting he is doping.
  7. Why do they do the finals by draw rather than going in qualification order from 8th to 1st which would mean the last one up would be in theory the favourite.
  8. The poor worldwide ratings for the Games will make getting bidders for 2036 and onwards even harder - it will have a long term impact on the games.
  9. Through that didn’t seem to affect or that much..
  10. Sad news. When was the last equine fatality at the Olympics before this ? I don’t remember one at 2012 or 2016.
  11. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/olympic-doping-row-a-new-cold-war-with-russia-960v6mjs5

  13. Cross-country was where all GB eventing medal hopes collapsed in 2016 so it’s good to see a great performance today.
  14. Gracenote have adjusted their predicted medal total for GB upwards from 52 to 62. Interesting because in the original 52 were two individual medals for Dina and several other week 2 medals that feel fairly unlikely. They now predict 16 golds instead of 14 as well.
  15. They would have to do it so each member did one or two of the disciplines rather than a brief swim, a tiny bit of fencing , a couple of jumps and a few shots and a short run as that would look daft and not be exciting as they would always have to be gaps as people dried and changed outfits.
  16. It only needs one or two of the likely medal contenders to suffer an elimination for their hopes to be over and it all to be shock up.
  17. I suspect the team event will be mayhem in terms of not being able to drop an eliminated rider score.
  18. probably have more chances of fourth places in Athletics than
  19. I wonder why they don’t get on through - apparently ETH coach was SAFP but is they more?
  20. I think Shelly and Shericka like each other as they celebrating together - it’s Elaine and them two that don’t get on.
  21. 1,2,3 for Jamaica. Broke Fl-Jo’s OR. Thompson- Herrah doesn’t seem to be popular with Fraser- Pryce and Jackson at all - they barely congratulated each other - that will make the relay interesting.
