Conversely, bit of Simple Jack about Lavreysen.

 

[ReidBetweenTheLines]

We’ll see these 3 in la

If the world still exists.

 

[Sydney Kicker]

Our boys get their medals presented by Martin Fourcade! One of my favourite athletes of all time!

Biathlon superstar. I always liked to watch him until Eurosport was removed from Foxtel :-(

 

[eddiesmith]

Richardson looks very disappointed, spur him on for LA

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Show off all those Golds now, we are coming in LA and Brisbane!!!

 

[juice t]

Just hope Georgia's got the legs to see out the Points race and medal

 

[Sydney Kicker]

I'm thinking Baker just looking to survive for the silver here. She will be really tired.

 

[RU_]

Can we score a medal here to finish overall 3rd?

 

[damochandler]

Does she try and lap the field

 

[The King!]

Can Georgia pinch Gold? or 0 chance

 

[Barrybran]

Canadian pole vaulter for mine

Everyone in track and field (except discuss, hammer and shot put). Abs for days. Men and women.

I would watch biathlon and cross country religiously. Then as you said it was taken off.

 

[Visions]

Great effort by Richardson, but do feel sorry he didn't win at least win one Gold along the line. Just happened to come against a freak.

 

[apollo_creed]

Honestly America will want to improve for LA.

They have had a really poor Olympics by their standards.

Looks like they are going to lose the Medal count for the first time since Beijing.

Nope. China have nothing left and they’re pretty much guaranteed womens basketball, currently in a wrestling final and also look like winning a cycling gold. They’ll either win by one gold or by tie (and more silvers).

 

[LukeParkerno1]

There’s 70 laps of this yikes

 

[Cats_R_Cool_4_Ever]

Don’t get this race lol

 

[catstorm]

Baker looks like she has nothing left

 

[RU_]

I have no idea what’s happening. Is Baker sitting in a good spot?

 

[Donakebab]

It's a lot of laps, you don't burn tickets at the start, particularly when Valente is often sitting on her back wheel.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Don’t get this race lol

Join the club from what I’ve read it’s basically a long race with a series of sprints in the middle allocated points every sprint.

Could be wrong though

She hasn't banked any points. Its a defensive ride atm, keep her eyes on Coles-Lyster, stay upright and pocket silver.

When they did the sprint bit I thought our woman was in the front pack lol but she got no points

 

[BobbyMorri]

Yeah, you cant take an ad break in this race.

Missed the Irish rider get a lap.

Getting very very tight.

 

[Alfonz]

Can we score a medal here to finish overall 3rd?

Nope. Japan just won another wrestling gold and are two clear. 8 golds and 1 silver from 9 wrestling finals. A tad annoying as we go on our silver rush to close out the games.

 

[Barrybran]

Did the Norwegian rider lap the field?
