cant believe they scored that round level

That first round showed the failings of the scoring system , he was comfortable winner for all three rounds for me

 

[sheeds]

Thank god for that , take a medal son and now make the final

 

[davek]

Ohuruogu - defo on the gear.

Big cloud hanging over her career not turning up for doping tests. Evere knows it (including the BBC team).

 

[Walken]

get in! 16-15 is a joke though

 

[RFUS]

Aye some odd scoring, but the right result in the end.

lads this is stupid, kazhakstan are 7th overall with just 6 medals, ahead of germany and france with 22 and 35 medals respectively, as well as japan who are even lower down with 26 medals

yeh couldnt agree more, he landed far far more scoring shots, held the centre of the ring more, hes was a clear winner, 1 point in though according to the judges average

 

[tsubaki]

Campbell did well to beat the judges then.

I wouldn't say that to Kazakhstan like.

Their army of gold medallist weightlifters would tear your limbs off and bench press your corpse.

Someone's bound to fail a doping test soon.

It's Shimizu! The ace lid who got through via appeal after the dodgy ref from the previous round.

 

[ijjysmith]

We never forget

Really?? I do Liverpool to Bmouth in 4. Did you do it at 40mph

Liverpool to down here is dead easy. All straight. Plus traffic was a bit nuts with the crazy weather in parts.

8 hours 22 mins, 456 miles.

After a day's work and international air travel.

With three kids in the back.

Sniff it Smithy.

Look I've only been driving a year people leave me alone!! Plus it was in the mrs' Nissan Micra! FFS!!

Not defending her but the the system of having to declare your location every day had only just been introduced which is why I think she gets a bit of leeway on it. Having said that she peaks at major tournaments but is that because like the cyclists she builds up to it or something more sinister
