Who's playing?

 

[Meadows]

I'm not sure GB is going to qualify for Rio

hmm, I'll have more of a think about it

 

[Kobalty]

Team GB doing well in women's badminton gotta say Japans Sato showing some bad sportsmanship question each out and trying to influence the line judge !!

 

[Hunter S.]

Canoing and kayaking both use the same boat/shell/kayak/canoe/whatever you want to call it, the difference is in the paddle type.

Good to know, but in the US they label it as kayaking. I almost skipped it because i thought it would be people rowing in a canoe.

Florence, ugh, what a disappointment

again, all the facilities/funding there, 2 of the newest best courses in the world (this one and the one in Cardiff) and still, they're choking.

this guy DID win silver last time too. oh well, think it's looking like a disappointing olympics overall for gb.

he was shit in the heats too, apparently this course isn't one of his favourites. not a good enough reason, he had way more training on this course than the other athletes.

Anyone know the difference between Epee and Foil fencing? Loved Epee yesterday, watched men's saber the other night and didn't like it as much as Epee.

Archery is so much fun to watch.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fencing has good explanations

 

[SolidSnakex]

man i'd love to see some badminton and some of the other less known/popular sports - too bad they are never aired here (australia).

I'd definitely watch archery and handball on a regular basis if they were shown in the US. The Olympics really seem like the only time that those sports are ever televised here.

Thanks.

florence is out. what a disappointment.

 

[Hunter S.]

Some redneck from the USA is winning shotgun clay pigeon shooting. Not a surprise. Hahahaha!

 

[Miles X]

Silver for Team GB In Equestrian?! Nice, well Done Zara and co. Any other medals up for grabs for us today?

 

[Larsa]

Wow, some terrible refereeing in Badminton

 

[Wes]

Silver for Team GB In Equestrian?! Nice, well Done Zara and co. Any other medals up for grabs for us today?

Nope. Best chance is Wiggins tomorrow in the Time Trial but he put a lot of effort in to the Road Race this weekend so he's not going to be as dominant as is usually expected.

 

[pappe]

Damn these shooters have insane reflexes.

individual equestrian medals are possible, maybe the gymnastics if they get really lucky. one of the best medal hopes in the canoeing just went out.

(Shooting)

These guys are good/too fast for me to follow.

 

[Kjellson]

What does the red and green lights in water polo mean?

 

[dc89]

Hmmm. What to watch?

 

[B-Dex]

Dat Australian water polo team.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Hmmm. What to watch?

The men's skeet shooting finals are really tight right now.

 

[numble]

Da gun competition.

 

[davidsaurus]

So much diversity in the shooting in the races, ages etc.

 

[pappe]

The men's skeet shooting finals are really tight right now.

That Qatari is shaking like a mf.

 

[Ephidel]

Switched over to the fencing while the Canoeing is on break - the Italian guy is hilarious. Very animated.

Thanks, I'll tune in!

Look like her win is real and not some form of drug usage like some people are talking about after the surprise win.

yeah,Vincent Hancock still has not missed one!!!!

Thanks, just one gold and we'll go into 10th above Aus, respectable position. Still far from the 4th we've targetted.

Glad to hear.

Women's Team Gymnastics, we've got an outside chance at a Bronze. Outside.

Women's 200m Freestyle, I think there's an outside chance at a Bronze.

Women's 200m Ind Med, We have a good chance at a medal, but it's "I'm just happy to be here" Miley in that race. She has the ability but I question her mindset.

Men's 4x200m Freestyle relay, I don't fancy our chances.

Individual Jumping Equestrian, We've got a good chance at some medals

Women's Syncro Final, Outside chance at a bronze

I reckon we'll pick up 2 silvers, one in jumping and one in the 200m ind med.

god, this is an entirely media invented story. such utter bullshit they keep reporting at after some guy said something.

she'll be drug tested if she won a gold medal.

 

[masud]

If we get another gold here for shooting at shit we'll only be 3 golds behind China. And track hasn't even started yet!

 

[BKJest]

That Qatari is shaking like a mf.

He usually shakes a lot while competing in sporting events. Like winning the Dakar rally.

 

[nny]

(Shooting)

That American is a like a killer robot; amazing shooting consistency.

 

[Zaph]

Really hopes someone GIFs the US shooting guy just then as he walked away with his gun smoking over his shoulder. BAMF.

 

[Shadow780]

Weightlifting used to be China's bread and butter, until the glorious leader promised life-time supply of food to his athletes.

 

[LanceVance]

That Qatar guy is shaking so much in the shooting

 

[killer_clank]

andy murray isn't messing about, thankfully. 5-1 up in the first set.

 

[Officerrob]

Hancock is not human

 

[Kobalty]

The USA using aim hacks in shooting again *joke not meant to be insulting just friendly banter*

 

[Hunter S.]

Hancock is not human

He must get a lot of groupie sluts.

 

[Officerrob]

Hancock with a new Olympic record
