    Indeed.

    I believe that is 13 boats out of 13 into A-finals. Superb stuff.

    Flipping hell, I think they gained a whole length and a half in that sprint didn’t they? Jeebus. 😯 indeed.

    Not the prettiest but by heck they gave it everything. Slow mo camera was excellent. Brut force and ignorance at its finest. 😀

    Good effort from Campbell and a Bronze. The Kiwi was outstanding in that race.

    Give the guy a chance to recover FFS! I’m not interested in an interview with an athlete who’s struggling to catch their breath. 🙄

    What an amazing night for the rowing last night – Eric and hamish then Mahe getting redemption from Beijing. Mahe particularly deserves respect – he was knocked off his bike 8 weeks ago and had a shoulder problem from that. He is a tough boy though. And yesterday’s double was insane, they finish fast normally but jesushchrist that almost gave me aheart attack. And best of all as I sit here sipping a cuppa we are ahead of the Aussies on the medal table booyah 😀

    Some quite spectacular sculling. If I wore a hat, I’d take it off.

    Actually the biggest surprise last night was my wife’s revelation that she had put $500 on a series of bets naming all medalists in the key races. She is an ex rower of note but it was quite a revelation, she made a decent return as well afaik.

    Awesome middle 1000 from the British 4. Aussies looking left early on, Brits eyes ahead from the start. Always a good sign.
