That Femke Bol in the mixed relay for me.. pity she did similar in the women's and took a medal from Ireland.

Outstanding.. I'll be 90 years old..

Could it work similar to the refugee team? Not really sure if they'll be willing to let that happen as you'll then have a lot of in dispute nations who will want to compete.

Not sure. They made a big deal about not leaving them out when they went into the process of getting it included but as best I can tell without a real plan.

Side note the lacrosse they’re going to play is a BS made up game that was modified to fit the Olympics. I don’t really get the point of that tbh and it’s a bit farcical. It’s meant to be fast paced but the variety they’ve invented is overdone.

Looks like France are on course for another gold. Women's basketball final going their way.

I may have confused lacrosse with jai-alai

I see Carlin was causing mayhem in the Keirin final bringing down two more riders in the final lap.

Has anyone tested that spanner for drugs?

There's defo something wrong with that lad. Three or four incidents with one rider is VERY suspicious.

Massive foul not called for France there, with USA scoring from the mistake - shocking officiating again

 

[ste d' indica]

Been a terrific effort this from les femmes, really hope they nick it.

 

[Rita_Poon]

[Rita_Poon]

[Rita_Poon]

4 points, 17 seconds, last TO.

 

[Rita_Poon]

Usa gold, again.
