An actual expert on the track coverage? I call BS

Well done Peter, but I'm looking forward to the next 3 years.
I see how far he has come in 5 years when he was run out of the heats in Rio in a 1.49. There is a world championship in Eugene Oregon next year and then Doha in Qatar in 2023, 3 more European seasons to learn more, get more international experience and learn how to handle being the hunted.
Bring on the world championships and then Paris when he will be 30.

More likely than Femke Bol.
Bol was 31st after the heats in 2019 World Championship. 1:46.92. Didn’t qualify for SF. Shows his improvement.
Tonight’s final was super slow though. Brazier won this race in 1:42.34 at those WC. Almost 3 seconds faster than tonight. He would’ve won tonight. I’ve got to let this go!

Tamsyn is talking about Gregson’s achilles and Hamish follows that straight up with “it’s been a fun night.”
* he’s a cretin.

The Polish guy is a 400m run who has moved up to 800m so he had a bit more speed in the final 80m.

extremely slow for a final when you consider it is a "fast track" and they are all wearing those new shoes which give you a couple of %. Puzzling running by some. It was slower than both semi finals and like 4 seconds slower than 2016.

I am 6 month into recovery from an achilles rupture so know the feels. Doing it twice you'd surely consider retirement
Pete's got me interested in checking these out, that's for sure.

Happy how Bol competed hard.
He will learn from that and as REH said a season or 2 in Europe working on tactics will see him Medal next games

This Peter Bol fellow is an absolute role model. So well spoken, gave his all, and although he's outwardly happy he admits he was here to win.
And - let's face it - he helps with the diversity angle and overcoming real adversity growing up.
His face will be all over promotions for Australian athletes in Paris 2024 assuming all things go to plan. I sincerely hope he carries himself well, doesn't spark controversy and is embraced by all of us - white, black or otherwise.

Nah I want the 17 year old to win. Could be the story of the Olympics if it happens.
