[Plugger35]

A good dive from Keeney but the Chinese girl nailed it better than her.

Eddie the Eagle?

This is summer, not winter.

No, Eddie the Eel

I thought he was talking about Eddie McGuire but he has probably just dived off the top of the Eiffel Tower after the Pies choked.

[Bedi]

any chance of an Aussie medal here in the diving?

 

[Jeremias]

Kristina Clonan up now in the velodrome.

For those who haven't worked out diving scoring system yet it is;

7 judges score - eliminate top 2 scores and bottom 2 scores, add up 3 remaining scores and multiply that by degree of difficult.

So if a dive is 3.5 degree of difficultly and scores are 8.5, 8.5, 8.0, 8.0, 8.0, 7.5, 7.5 then the score is

8.0+8.0+8.0 = 24.0 x 3.5 = 84.00. Tubby and the other guy as well as commentators in previous years should explain this.

The syncro diving is a bit more complicated, they have execution score judges and eliminating high and low scores of those judges, you end up with 5 judges scoring points, add them up, then times by 3/5ths to get a similar number to individual diving comp, then multiply by degree of difficulty.

Keeney is 2nd after 2 dives of 5
Feel like Chen will have to stuff up majorly to get gold, she's on another level, 12 point lead already

 

[Jeremias]

Kristina Clonan up now in the velodrome.

[catstorm]

Got him guaranteed silver great work

 

[Royces Hart]

 

[ReidBetweenTheLines]

Richardsons a beast! Just secured a silver. Potential gold

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Damn, Richardson has some kind power around the outside.

 

[Plugger35]

Not a great dive there from Keeney, didn't nail it.

 

[largebus]

Poor dive from Keeney in round 3, that's probably the end of the gold.
Still in silver medal position

 

[Forward Press]

Safe to say, gold or silver to Richo, our cyclists have met expectations especially compared to the disaster of Tokyo.

Well f***ing done.
