Ash Maloney just won bronze in the decathlon

How excited was he? lol

Was kinda weird as I was watching with no commentary on the broadcast and it took me a moment to work out what the result was. He looked pumped as but jelly legged at the same time.

So you didn't hear him swearing? lol

Matilda's didn't deserve to win, poor performance with some very basic errors.

Yep Matildas and Olyroos (against Egypt) produced some very disappointing performances.

Missed Ellie Carpenter big time

Not sure I agree with the hype around Carpenter. Yes athletic, yes good defensive positioning. Not so good on the ball though, turns over too many attacks with poor touch and then she is way out of position. Has cost us too. I know she does have plenty of upside but I don't know if she can improve that part of her game, hope I'm wrong as she is obviously going to be around for a while.
 
How good is Harry Garside humble bloke no mug about him first bixing medal in 31 years at the Olympics upfront no BS knew he had been outclassed by a better boxer only young should go on to Paris.Well done Harry

Yeah it is, what I like about it is his coach is an old guy that has been coaching for 40 years and had his 1st olympian at Rio and had 2 in the decathlon in Tokyo. He now has trained an Olympic medalist.

So we have 3 Australians in the Javelin final and here we are watching a bunch of blokes (none of which are Aussies) running around and around and around forever, meanwhile our Aussie girls are still competing. Thanks channel 7
