    Solid start for me, mid table. Don't want to peak too early. I'm happy with my start :cool:

    These gymnasts look as if they were chiseled from stone by a god. I'm very jealous :L

    The mens swimming was a bit too predictable to be exciting for me. Yang will probably piss the 1500m as well, the talented bastard.

    You'll need to rally the troops. Bitta food poisoning could prove to be a valuable option yet.

    3-4 live swimming races and 3 recorded boxing bouts in the last 2 hours on RTE.

    :mad:

    They're terrible broadcasters. Jimmy McGee too, needs to shut up and just commentate on what he sees rather than using metaphors and telling us about the square mileage of Namibia! :mad:

    How come they don't show the scores on the boxing anymore?

    Was thinking the same thing, it's sooooo much better with scores.

    Thankfully starting to work out the http://www.eurovisionsports.tv/london2012 website.

    Totally legit by the way as pointed out on the last page.

    Shame rte couldn't show one or two of the current live events rather than the blah blah blah they have been at for the last hour.

    Yes highlights are welcome but this is just stupid now.

    Bit manky how some of the swimmers drink from the pool then spit it back in...
    They are pros so they probably don't pee in the water like a bunch of skangers

    Complete list on page 15. I just done a tally of total medals won. I was gonna do 5 points Gold, 3 points Silver & 1 point Bronze. Have spreadsheet setup to calculate but it's at work.

    Boyfriend on laptop here so had to use pen and paper tonight. Took long enough writing every list out again then going back and forth 150 times just to put a total medal figure in. Then I had to edit list on my little crappy blackberry, put you all in the correct order only to find that I am bottom of the table :(:(:(

    You should have just waited until you had the laptop :) There's no rush sure :)

    Absolutely terrible coverage so far. I have seen those fights 4 times now on RTE. There is so much going on and they are showing so little.

    Why is anyone watching RTE? Okay if there is a particular Irish athlete that's grand of course but otherwise you're mad - unless you like chin stroking chit-chat.

    Did anyone see one of the boxing analysts make a joke about John Joe Nevin saying he was "a great thinker"?

    Kind of controversial, joe.ie had a bit up about it.

    Bill is absolutely useless. Same old fogies getting all the jobs. You'd think they would let some young people into these positions.
