I agree it sounds like a pretty lame excuse, but I can't honestly think of any other reason why he would say it though. I mean I know he's 19, but could he seriously be that thick?

You'd think, wouldn't you?

Fair play to Queen Vic, btw. Another Aussie jib.

Aye. Aussies will have to give up this sport lark. Suppose we could always invent another sport for them as I can't see Aussie Rules making it into the Olympics.

Brts must be happy its taking the focus off their ****house cricket team

 

[GIMH]

Yep, really need to take focus off that number one ranked team that finished yet another day without losing a wicket

Back on the cycling, Meares was absolutely hopeless in that final

Her tactics were just rubbish and she failed to ride the race out - pretty bewildering stuff from an Olympic and world champion

Coming on top of her relative failure in the team sprint, I wonder if the Oz media will give her a similar hammering to Magnussen

Doubt it some how

Cycling and Rowing, you see this is the kind of success you can have if you have lousy public transport

 

[Burgey]

If last night's match is anything to go by, Aussie Rules would make it easily. One of the greatest games ever.

It's just so difficult to explain to Burgeinho. "Dad, the Poms cheated in the cycling" he said to me on the phone yesterday.

So I did what any father would. Told him "Don't be surprised mate, it's their way. It's why they're loathed the world over in sporting contests. You can't trust a Pom in any sporting contest. For decades they've won nothing, now they'll stoop to any low to win something. You go about it the Australian way mate - win fairly, then sledge the **** out of your opponent afterwards"*

[flibbertyjibber]

We just too good. Bring on the womens pursuit and another big G

bit of a difference there. can't recall her ever telling the world the other competitors they were no chance

 

[Burgey]

Burgeinho following the above advice, saying nothing pre-game, scoring the winner with his left foot then spraying the **** out of the kid who had gobbed off earlier in the match while leading 1-0.

Good lad.

 

[Spikey]

if he's such a good lad why is he playing football

 

[Burgey]

Learning basic foot skills. And notions of sportsmanship.

Plus he enjoys it.

Just found out that Wiggins has an Australian father - now his performances make sense

Not to mention the Australian coaches the GB cyclists have gained.

 

[GIMH]

And of course the fact that we are a superior sporting nation to Australia. Don't forget that.

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Kenny fastest in the sprint with an Olympic record. Looked good.

 

[Johnners]

Very childish of me, but massive lol at the name of the Malaysian sprinter "Awang". Commentators noting that his coach "Big John Beasley there holding up Awang" as they wait for the start.

[flibbertyjibber]

Cav returning to track cycling for next Olympics.
