Shut up Hamish you idiot.

 

[Shell]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO **** OFF.

 

[Cataholic]

Their goalkeeper was too good.

 

[Shell]

Jesus, what is this runner on. I want some.

 

[Shell]

She's ****ing off her head.

 

[cats_09]

Yep

 

[winty]

We're guaranteed at least two medals tomorrow. Harry Garside fights in a semi-final in the boxing, and even if he loses he'll get a bronze, and we have the Aussies in the women's beach volleyball final.

Then we also have 3 women in the javelin final, and 2 women in the 1500m final as well.

 

[Shell]

I want that gold v the US in the Volleyball.

Time for some revenge.

Two men in the 1500 final.

Moloney 3rd in the Decathlon with only the 1500 to go.

 

[standupand]

Can't get enough of Bruce calling the German "Farken" in the 1500m.

 

[cats_09]

Going beyond the competitors for a minute - congrats to the 3 Australian officials who'll be out there during the mens gold medal soccer match

 

[winty]

Moloney 3rd in the Decathlon with only the 1500 to go.

And he held on to win the bronze. Brilliant effort.

 

[Shell]

Just an overdose of sport today and tonight. Bring it

 

[winty]

This race walking looks like it'd be rough on the knees and hips...

 

[Shell]

I just read somewhere that this is the last ever mens 50km walk, because it is not gender inclusive

 

[Shell]

Kay so schedule today:

- 12.30pm Beach Volleyball ⛱
- Athletics Finals from 9.50pm.
- Football (AFL kind) from 7.50pm
- and a whole lotta other stuff in between.

I hope they show some karate from 6pm- we got an Aussie competing in that

 

[Shell]

I'm still getting messages from Queenscliff Day Spa concerning LD and my booking

 

[winty]

 

[Shell]

Walking is awesome

 

[Shell]

 

[Shell]

They should make ^^^ that the standard type of uniform walkers must wear for the pics

 

[cats_09]

I just read somewhere that this is the last ever mens 50km walk, because it is not gender inclusive

I know both the men & women have the 20km walk, and the men then have the 50km

From the next Olympics as you said the 50km is being dropped, but it's being replaced with the 35km walk instead - not sure if women walk that distance or not, so will be interesting to see what happens

I just through it was being changed as the marathon runners didn't like that there was a longer event

 

[Shell]

Lold re the marathon runners.

Im sure that still gets up their noses regardless
