    yes indeed and atm its nice to see someone who isnt US or China winning gold. I think there must be too many diving events, it seems to be going from day 1. But I feel sad that olympics is ending soon becos the sporting airwaves will be full of talk about footballers again.

    Battocletti nearly pulled off something incredible and at 24 is same age as Chebet. For GB some slightly better perfs could have turned 4 silvers into golds and added 2 bronzes as well, but USA raise their game so much here in paris and are so dominant [except in the mens 100m relay], what...

    Thats brave in front of 80,000. Glad she said yes even though he finished 11th. China seem to have won a heck of a lot of medals in events that involve judging.

    Seems that Walcott-nolan ran faster than the heat muir and bell were in but as she only came 9th shes out. Muir and bell will have to go some to get in front of the africans and jess hull. I think team GB came to paris with high hopes in the athletics but we keep missing out by fractions of a...

But Oz have more medals in athletics than GB atm, i only saw the pole vaulter win, she might try martial arts when shes done with athletics the way she was fistpumping aftre every jump. Perhaps if lyles hadnt pogoed around like a maniac b4...

    BBC has verrynne as keeper. hope someone knows. Stubbs at no3 does seem a bit optimistic, i guess it was bat there or not play. For windies fairly tight bowling in the absence of the joseph twins.

    I think a lot of people will be supporting Canada in the beach volleyball cos of Brandy W. If the swiss can have a team, why cant GB, we surely have a lot more beaches.

    Its gonna be tough for KJT as Hall and Thiam are much better at the field events than her. Actually i always thought the hep was weighted in favour of the field events. Even if you come last in a track event its only a fraction away from the leaders, whereas Thiam can throw 50m+ in the javelin...

    Dont think the French runner was at fault for Scott mills falling and then bringing down 3 others. Very lucky he got reinstated after his outburst but that final is gonna be crowded. ATM i dont see how GB can equal the Tokyo medal haul, certainly not the golds.

    El bakkali is a legend. Horrible crash by girma. Track running is hard enough without having obstacles put in yor way.

    Gimson and Burnet disqualified after drifting across the line before the horn. I dunno how u put a brave face on that. Hope it dont upset their wedding plans.

    I assume he must be the first from SM to play a test, but Keacy is 27 and has an FC average of 26, is selected at no3 which seems rather hopeful. Was his selection a surprise? Safys must have had other injuries apart from coetzee as they dont have some of their best bowlers, but bowling wise...

    If I had £1 for evry time they say Katarina Johnson Thompson on the BBC during the next 3 days I would get back all the money i've spent financing team GB over the last 20 years.

    USA win win win just about everything in athletics. Keep pipping GB on the line. And then Oz beat GB at everything else. If the trend continues i expect Anna Hall to win the Heptathlon and KJT to come 4th.

    That news conference they held made the IBA look pretty shambolic. I can see why the IOC want to be rid of boxing for the next olympics.
