Well done Tom Slingsby taking gold in the laser sailing...also following Michael Diamond's efforts and hope he comes out on top in the trap...so far so good there.

Seems Nick D'arcy is declared bankrupt but can take off to Europe for a Holiday instead of being sent home. WTF? You are supposed to be broke!
The more this goes on the more I despise this fool!

It's my understanding that he is going to be holidaying with his family, so maybe they are paying for it But I guess there is always a chance that he is paying for it with his olympic payments...even though by right that money should be going to Simon Cowley and what Darcy owes him in compensation... This decision by SA to allow him to holiday really encapsulates its soft attitude to its swimmers and why we only got one gold from the pool!

Got drawn in to watching that trap shooting last night, Diamond Qualfyfied with 125/125 I thought here we go he should be on to get his third gold, He was still one shot in the lead with about 5 shots to go and faultered to have to shoot off for Bronze, Which he missed out on, Was a great effort non the less for Diamond.

Wow that sucks...thought that was a medal for sure Still a way better effort than his compatriot Russell Mark, who won in Atlanta as well, who finished like 20th in the double trap.

I could've made the pole vault final.
Pity Kim Yoo Suk missed out.

BMX was pretty good and some narley stacks thrown in as well in both mens and womens events.
So far Aussies going well in both especially the young girl of Buchanan who posted the fastest time!
Hell she might even be related!

Just watched a disappointing Australian team fail to qualify for the 4X400 relay final but didn't that trackside commentator just rip into John Steffenson...I have to say his responses made him look very reminiscent of Choc Mundine - completely full of himself!
