BREAKING NEWS.....Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman both spotted at Olympic events. News.com.au.

Opals are embarrassingly bad. Based on that half they might as well go home now. No defence, can’t shoot…

Why is Mark Taylor commentating diving? All he does is read scores while the other commentator actually commentates. Nein should have Michael Clarke and Paul Kent doing the boxing with Donald Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon at the shooting.

I watched the men play the other night. The gap in skill level and tactics are so vast they may as well be playing different sports.

I know, I mentioned I’ve been watching?
Not that event, she’s been chasing the K1 gold since London.
But yes she got gold in the C1 last time and if I remember correctly was voted as best gold medal performance of the games, or something?
Will be great if she can take out the C1 this Olympics too. This house will be up for it. Double Golden Fox!!! 🦊

They were shocking, taking nothing away from Nigeria, but geez I’ve never seen them so inept.

Harry Garside out - brutal

It’ll be short lived .. but damn we punch well above our weight for a small population

I remember the years when we barely won a gold medal through the whole of the games! 1976 & 1980 come to mind. We’ve certainly come a long way since then.

The wedgies during scrums in the girls 7s eh?

Yeah tough times growing up in the 80’s especially as a Magpie, then the West Indies would show up for the summer. Winning was rare.
I think LA had turned a stadium into a dirt bike track as a demo sport or something?
I was a BMX Bandits fan too.

 

[Tucker]

Wow, that interview with Harry Garside after he lost was raw and very dark.
I hope his loved ones get around him, his grief is real.

The two fastest freestyle swimmers in the world have done it!
Australia's Mollie O'Callaghan and Ariarne Titmus share a special moment on the same podium after winning gold and silver in the women’s 200m freestyle final.
