[RussellEbertHandball]

Patterson like 4 others miss first attempt at 1.98.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Mahuchikh easy clearance at 1.98 first attempt.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Huge throw from Katzberg.

 

[Royces Hart]

Mahuchikh getting higher than Joe Cocker.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Reekie cooked it. Gone.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

2nd 800m demi was faster than the 1st one, was about 2 secs at 400m mark.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Patto got over at 1.98 but clipped bar with trailing leg. That was her 2nd failure.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Looking like another AUS v UKR 'country of origin' contest for the podium.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Patto out at 1.98. Could split bronze with other Ukrainian.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Ouch - Eleanor still in with a chance of bronze but it's out of her hands now

 

[AdelaideGT]

Yep - equal bronze.

Well done Eleanor - another medal!

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Official now Patto shares a bronze medal.

so Oz v UKR for gold.

 

[Mr Meow]

Great work Patto!

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

All the best Claudia.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Hopefully Mottram just told Claudia 'follow Hodgkinson'..

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Hodgkinson wins easily and confirms her favouritism. Hollingsworth 7th and struggled.

 

[AdelaideGT]

Oh well - Claudia can now relax and get herself ready to win the World Junior Championship in a coupla weeks.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Nicola missed 2.00 and Mahuchikh easily clears 2.00m.

And puts her sleeping bag on.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

2nd miss for Nicola.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Nicola over at 2.00m

 

[JP Sauce]

Yesss!!!!!

 

[Mr Meow]

What a jump!!!

 

[AdelaideGT]

Nicola stays alive.

I'm hoping she passes 2.02 and gives her all at 2.04 or higher.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Big Boofy Blokes spinning hard and throwing a ball and chain and roaring loud, has a strange fascination for me.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

Bloody hell thought Nicola was over but ankle clipped it.
