GB Olympics

Men play Hockey?? 😱

Apparantly

Apparantly

You'll be telling me they do gymnastics next 😳

How did the mens Hockey go I know there are some big fans on here.

Did I hear somewhere they have all been professional and funded for 3 1/2 years building up to the Olympics,if so that's probably over 5 million pounds so surely a gold medal is a certainty.

On the brink of elimination by all accounts, maybe that's why they're not getting a token mention, nobody likes a loser :smirk:

Fiji were outstanding last night especially when the got momentum, they play a brilliant brand of 7's Rugby by staying on their feet and quick offloading. Leone Nakawara is a stand out at this in the 15's game too and has topped offload stats in the Pro 12 for years now. Sorry to see him go to Racing 92 from Glasgow and delighted for him he got a gold.

Phenomenonal from Glover and Stanning - unbeaten now in 5 years and defended their Olympic Title with a supreme performance

And then a second gold in half hour with the men's four :whoo:

Special mention to the Irish guys getting a silver

Thanks Fundy, although the link isn't responding very well on my laptop.

Too late for me, work tomorrow - maybe I'll catch some in the afternoon.

Brilliant end to the Rowing Meet for GB

GB cruising along in the Olympics

 

[BesCumber]

Not bad at all.
Got the makings of a historic day.
Fingers crossed..:clap:

 

[BubbaP]

Expect it could be spun several different ways, the current team GB ratio of Silver vs. Bronze compared to those around them in the medal table. Am reading as a positive.

 

[BesCumber]

You know it makes me laugh when people say certain sports shouldn't be in the Olympics, because a gold medal doesn't define the pinnacle of said sport, or some other gumpth.

Go tell Murray that didn't matter.
Well done lad..:thup:
