I think that Aus team using 3 riders and piggy backing off stronger teams not a bad strategy given information that would have been picked up in the TDF and leaving Dennis to concentrate on time trial. I like that it's a bit different to professional team racing.

Like the commentary too, both in the hockey and cycling. Georgie Parker and Anna Meares expert commentary a welcome respite from the usual hysteria served up by footy commentators.

Anna Meares is the only good part of the commentary. Phil Liggett is well past it

 

[boncer34]

Thorpe has good insights but his monotone makes me sleepy.

Not paired with the ideal commentator either

Anyone know where to find a list of times for events Aussies are in, particularly finals? Channel flicking dodging ads but it’s flying blind. Google doesn’t yield much useful and olympics.com.au is a garbage website :/

 

[boncer34]

Enjoying the fencing

The roar? Though I think they just have the order not specific times on events like rowing/swimming etc

 

[Lore]

I’ve never watched dressage before, it’s kind of weird and amazing at the same time…

Or the previous horse was with the rider called Sabina. This one is shit

The 7plus app schedule is pretty comprehensive I've just noticed

The 7plus app schedule is pretty comprehensive I've just noticed

It’s the same code that’s on the australian olympics website I think. It’s really clunky though, you can’t scroll through it or filter it by aussies or by medals. The results button doesn’t work properly either :/ it’s a bit of a shit show, both phone and computer.

Thank god for Twitter.

Ya, that’s the same one on the Olympics website, it wasn’t letting me scroll yesterday and the desktop version was stuck as a small section in the middle of the screen and half of it was obscured.

It looks like they might’ve patched it overnight but, for example, there’s an Aussie in the equestrian. The equestrian goes from 6pm until 11.15pm… I’m not watching 5 hours of equestrian to see one Aussie. Also it’s the same time as the footy

7 really do suck at covering this.

 

[boncer34]

Bronze for Smith. Brutal from Thorpe though.

 

[eth-dog]

We have a medal! Now hopefully Emma can get us a gold

 

[boncer34]

400m freestyle. First 50.... whoo we're winning blow the siren

 

[eth-dog]

Second. Wow, what a swim from the 18 year old Tunisian

 

[boncer34]

His coach isn't wearing his mask properly. Disqualification worthy imo.

 

[boncer34]

we lead at every touch but the one that counted

 

[sameolds33]

Bronze for Smith. Brutal from Thorpe though.

why brutal? what did he say?

 

[sameolds33]

I’ve never watched dressage before, it’s kind of weird and amazing at the same time…

Or the previous horse was with the rider called Sabina. This one is sh*t

We won tickets to the dressage and jumping finals, held in HK, at the Beijing Olympics. Jumping was amazing (got home at about 2am because events held at night due to heat). Dressage like watching paint dry. Not a great spectator sport unless you can appreciate the difficulty that synchronised mimimal movement requires.

 

[boncer34]

why brutal? what did he say?

Straight after the race "unfortunately if he'd swum his heat time he'd have won."

 

[sameolds33]

Good start for the Hockeyroos who have had such a difficult time over the last coupe of years. Nice to see Rachel Lynch back.

 

[boncer34]

No pressure on the women yet
