  • Rigged. Ref gave some soft decisions too Fiji in the first half to make it look like he was being fair. second half all to France. 
    certainly looked this way, however Fiji went wrong in trying to mix it with the very fit and physical French instead of looking to move the ball around at speed
  • So to clarify, swimming fast in a race was the secret key to winning?:

    Titmus' strength was her speed'

    Double Olympic gold-medal winning swimmer on BBC TV

    Ariarne Titmus swam that incredibly.

    She knew that her strength was her speed
  • Peaty looks good, defo got more to give 
  • Great to see Nadal and Alcaraz winning in the doubles.
  • Oh god... Just saw the moment from the Aussie girl, who messed up her Sync Dive and so handed the Bronze to our Girls - Really is a case of fine margins isnt it!!

    DuPont changed the game, he is a fantastic player.
  • That boxing is a total joke. Wank sport at the best of times. How did our girl lose that fight to the Turk.
  • The Olympic Committee are obviously not previous athletes. They keep introducing subjective sports (mainly US influenced) which rely on scoring rather than 1st past the post.  So many judging travesties, yet they still won't learn. Need to have full transparency over finances of anyone involved in these sporting events.

    ridiculous decision. On the front foot the whole time. trading as many punches and some with more composure and they give it to the Turk. These games are rigged.

    Sunday Triathalon training Sunday training stopped due to pollution levels [in Seine.]
    They spent $1.5 billion to clean the river up for the Olympics.

    And they temporarily closed two zebra crossings. No, sorry, that was a classic Lifer moan about London 2012.
  • Rosie Eccles now been robbed in the boxing. Two fights I’ve seen and two awful decisions.

    Don’t follow boxing but it was on when I turned tv on. 

    Knowing nothing about the scoring, as a layman I thought she’d won

    Awful, but not an unfamiliar problem, "When it rains heavily, untreated sewage can be washed into the river".

    I see their local water company is called 'Eau de Paris'. Don't think I'll be buying any of that perfume in a hurry. 
    Part of the [PP] eye watering cost was bulding a massive storage reservoir for heavy rain run off.
    I'd be out with my yellow jacket protesting about this.

    Is Southgate the manager of this GBR Hockey side. Loads of possession going nowhere. The left back can’t use their left hand and keep cutting inside. 

    Losing 2-1 to Spain

    Think you need to watch it mate, as that's not how it sounded or looked like to me.

    Maybe just the world we live in now, and we have to accept it, at risk of getting called gammon or whatever.

    *Edit - as Covered End said above, pretty much
  • Yeah sounded mixed to me
  • Is Discovery worth getting for the Olympics? Bbc coverage seems very limited so far 
  • Have you got Eurosport? as they are covering it on both their channels.

    If you have got Eurosport on your tv package just keep scrolling through channels and after the likes of Man Utd TV etc there is a whole bunch Olympic channels. 

    Or if you have got Vodafone phone you can get three months discovery plus subscription for free

    It was. The German screwed up when looking good for the gold in the final run. Kunz. (Penalized 50 points to finish 11th)

    Tbf Woods run was without error so she deserved it. Yes the German messed up but she was taking risks trying to win gold, so shit happens.
