It's got **** all to do with the GFA.
A British victory in the boxing at last, Lewis Richardson getting through to the QF and a win from a medal.
Meanwhile, refugee Cindy Ngamba, who has lived in the UK since she was ten and can't return to her native Cameroon because her being gay is illegal there, has also won her first fight (against the world champion no less). A little positive news story during a turbulent week in the UK.
Meanwhile, Marchand marchon.

Incredible swim. Not only wins, breaks the OR and comes within 0.5 of the WR. All in his 2nd final of the night.

Sport Northern Ireland seem to have a different opinion on the matter to you.
Perhaps you could pass on your thoughts to them directly.

That is a remarkable record!
Don't they normally get going in 2nd week?

You're right. They'll still come top.
My recollection though is that they and the Aussies normally dominate the pool which hasn't happened this time.
I do feel they're unusually low in the table even for this stage.
