Commenwealth Games

[Robert Jarvis]

Just finished watching the opening ceremony. Have to say it was incredible on fact in many ways better than Bejeing. Fantastic spectacle, I bet those athletes who pulled out are regretting that now, the sad blerts.

Fairly sure they are happy to be safe at Home.

My guess is Australia 75 Gold medals.

Fair play Bunds, the Aussies are masters at the Athletics stuff.
NZ will take out the Sevens gold though

 

[Bundy]

Has anyone watched this? All I heard is that Aussies have been giving the judges the finger and being disqualified. Bit of a no show.

Wales won a medal... Womens weight lifting

This is turning into the best games yet.

They should introduce those crazy high land games like giant pole throwing etc. for the Scottish participants.

 

[bluebloodinmyveins]

Northern Ireland won some medals, tho i have no idea for what? just caught a glimpse of some ginger lids with medals in the Belfast Telegraph while in the shop.

Its called tossing the caber and I reckon Aussies would be naturally good at it, as you're strong types.

 

[Matt Damon]

These events are rammed. Just like at a Kopite protest event I tell ya.

as long as it's not tossing each other cabers, you know how Aussies are with the Homer Sexuals.

 

[chicoazul]

I was particularly enjoying the dashing looks of the fellow contestant in the background.

Our tribe are fine lookers and no mistake.
