Just watched a bit of the girl on girl beach volley ball......

Not a bad gap filler, especially the chick in red (fk know what team) with her undies tucked up nice and high.....

Dunno what the scores were, it was Aussie v another team in red togs.

Fixed it for ya.  ;D She needed more meat on her arse, a bit to flat.  ;)

French Gymnast Samir Ait Said HORRIFIC LEG BREAK!! Olympic Games Rio 2016

One of my friends on farcebook has linked the video, and it keeps going to the top of my news feed. Im really not that keen to see a vid of some dude snapping his leg (bloody auto playing videos) so I have to scroll quickly past it everytime ;D

I am quickly getting sick of seeing the same footage over and over again. I am sure there is other sports besides the female rugby sevens, swimming and beach volleyball that can be broadcast.

Everytime I see those Rio olympic gold medals flashed around on the tele - I think of Westerns wagon wheels for some reason. ..   LOL....

The telecast would have you believe there are only swimmers in the Australian team, unless you win a medal. Then you might get a minute or two of your actual competition telecast.

The channel 7 'Olympics on 7' app is good especially if you pay the $19.95 premium to be able to watch all the sports and replays. Takes the chopping and changing in the TV coverage out of play and you can also watch more of the sports that 7 doesn't prioritise.

And premium content is free for Telstra customers so no $19.95 upfront, not sure about data usage though.

How has no one mentioned the "team refugees"  does that mean refugees have their own country now?
This is the weirdest thing I've ever seen at the Olympic games.
I always thought it was people representing countries not political position.  Does that mean there will be a "team trump" at the next games?

Yeah, I saw something about them the other day.

Apparently one of the "refugees" travels the world competing in the high-level marathons  ???

Funny, but to me "refugee" has always suggested homeless, oppressed, living on charity etc etc  >:(

X2 Catherine Skinner has been knocking on the door for a while. Well done to Laetisha Scanlan also. Shot the top score in qualifying but didn't progress to the medal rounds.

My wife who works in the sporting event industry (and has worked for several Olympic and Commonwealth Games Organizing Committee's in senior management) just told me that the refugee thing is some kind of IOC initiative...

Sounds all a bit odd to me...

About 1hr ago Alan Jones on 4BC said some female usa athlete had just won spectacularly in the "artistic gymnastics"....   

"A black American, abandoned by her father as a kid; her mum a junkie; raised by the grandparents; everyone in the auditorium crying" - her finish was so amazing. ..

Can someone please post the clip up?....    I'm sick in bed atm...   but the eye candy may prove therapeutic. ...  LOL...   no, just kidding. ......

Bronte and Cate Cambell, what a pair of top girls. The didn't get a medal in the final of the 100mtre freestyle but their attitude towards their experience is how any person in sport, should be thinking.  ;)

"It doesn't matter that we didn't get a medal, we are at the Olympics, how good is that and we did our best on the day" Well done to these well grounded girls.  :cup:
