Jonesy7211 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Great game of rugby 7's for the final. First half was incredible. Such a spectacle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 There is no sporting spectacle like the Olympics. As others said above just find yourself watching some sports you’d never normally consider. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonesy7211 Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Never expected such a rout in the 7s final, especially after the start Fiji made. Shows how much the Olympics means when a recent world player of the year switches to 7s just for this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m already a swimming expert, been watching it 5 minutes. “Ooooh not sure her technique on that tumble turn was great” While I eat pizza like a fat **** on the sofa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does seem almost underrated to me, won everything, going for his 3rd gold in a row, I'm sure theres something daft like the top 10 times all time for the 50m he has 8 of them, broke the world record 14 times now And he's only 29 so probably got another games in him if he wants it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's £3.99. I realised after 20 minutes of Clare Balding that coverage is very much a lot of filler. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bickster Posted July 28 Moderator Share Posted July 28 So the limpics, for all the odd sports and competitions in it I doubt they'll ever beat this for being strange. Town Planning… and yes that is a Gold medal for Liverpool in 1932 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching the Women's final now and I have to agree. I mean they must have each fired thousands of arrows, you'd think not hitting a 10 would be the exception. Also, there really should be a 12 pointer (or reduce the others) for the middle middle. There's already another circle there but it doesn't score any more points for a better shot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
