Guaranteed medal. How good! Heard Roy and HG say they’re scrapping boxing in LA.

Cheerleading is in right? That’s a fun sport to watch at least. Cricket t20 I know is in.

Day half a sniff for a medal if he can string a back 9 together, gold might be beyond him with the quality at the top.

Maybe the women's 50m freestyle or the women's 100m medley.

Edit: Oh and the high jump!

Sjostrom is 1.06 favourite for a reason. Only question is whether she breaks her own world record.

The US will win the medley easily as well (womens) but I guess there’s a chance of them DQ’ing.

Anything can happen though. Pretty sure the US would’ve been short price favourites in the 4 x 400 last night.

Where’s Rob Walker gone in the Stan feed? The guy needs a lozenge though. Here’s Sydney! Feel like she’s a part time race these days, you never see her.

No chance in the 50 free or the medley.

Geez. Ok!
If Shayna gets a medal, that will be awesome!

You don’t think our girls can win the relay? I do give them a chance. Of course the breaststroke is going to cost us dearly but anything’s possible.

Sailing is delayed due to light winds. Matt Wearn is dominating the Laser class and if he has two top-3 finishes today he will pretty much wrap up the gold before the medal race

China are a good chance in the medley relay (men), US win the women’s easily. The Irish guy all things being equal wins the 1500m.

Roy Jones the head of boxing?

 

[2 eazy]

Issue is also US have WR holder in butterfly leg also. We need Kaylee or Mollie to put an absurd split

Both breaststroke and fly are issues if we had Emma’s swimming like she was 4 years ago maybe but without even a finalist in the breaststroke huge problem

 

[Trojan90]

Australia Hungary 1-1, women’s water polo to top the group.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

2-1 Australia

Goalie has been Player of the match for Australia

 

[Scorpus]

Our women's water polo keeper is a gun

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Any chance of paying that down the other end of the pool ref? It’s there but jeez consistency…

 

[Plugger35]

Good battle between the Stingers and Hungary, back to 2 all now.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

What a shot!

3-2 Aus

 

[Plugger35]

Chuckie puts the Stingers back in front.

Water polo at it's finest here.

 

[Royces Hart]

The goalkeepers for our men’s and women’s team look like siblings.

 

[Plugger35]

Hungary strikes back to make it 3 all.

It's a shootout in the pool.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

What was that penalty for jeez no way we get that call

 

[largebus]

Do you know new start time?

He came 10th but his closest rival was DQ'd. Next race is in 10 mins

 

[Plugger35]

You don't realise how big some of these water polo players are until they get out of the pool.

Some big legs on these girls, I guess you need to have big legs in this caper, it isn't synchronised swimming.

 

[Plugger35]

The Stingers going 2 goals up, Hungary calling a time out and they are copping a bake from their coach.
