Gold in Hockey, Diving, Boxing and Pole Vault cause for celebration.

I concede Poms too good but I'm proud of our team and have really enjoyed the viewing.

2 games in a row where big Max has impacted up forward as well as dominating the ruck and gaining possession numbers to boot.

Must have earnt a recall.

Things are looking up for the English, they are on top of India and have headed us, reckon they are there to stay.

Must say I'm enthusiastic about some of our younger athletes coming through, not sure about Rio but when the CG hit the Gold Coast we are bound to more competitive for medals particularly in some of the distance events.

All the more reason to support the Poms and hope they take the sting out of the Indian batsmen before they visit our shores.

I reckon we will handle their attack but their batsmen are more than a handful for most.

Can't see where they are coming from Macca, what am I missing ?

Reckon we are in a spot of bother now the swimming has finished nevertheless we have been outstanding in the pool.

Pretty pleased with the shooters too.

Probably helpful we're playing a finalist. Otherwise we'd have been slotted at 4.40 pm on the Sunday.

You are probably correct.

9 Sunday fixtures in the one season is more than enough though.

Poms just won't go away

Any vision of Jess in the marathon available ?

The last time the Poms bettered our medal tally at the CG was in 1986 and I'm keen to see that trend continue.

Happy with the lead of three as it stands.

Not the most likeable chap is Cook however I give him credit for his fighting knock of 95.

Sensational Michael and Jess.

That news hasn't been lost on me Macca, now can we maintain the ascendancy ?

Relay only unfortunately for Usain.

After day 2 the Poms still have their noses in front, same number of total medals however they have one more gold.

Hmmm...

Agree with your comments TD, there were plenty of proud competitors on day one judging by reactions.

The medal tally in Delhi in 2010 was Australia 74/55/48 = 177, India 38/27/36 = 101, England 37/59/46 = 142

It will be some turn around in the space of 4 years if they manage to knock us off.

Thanks for that binman, beautiful to watch.

One of my all time faves who in the last half of 2000 was simply sensational although he provided great memories right throughout his time at MFC.

Well spoken during the interview and nice to hear Jeff heap praises on our cluib.

Nothing new about electric taps Stewie

Perhaps some stand up clown can make a joke of the women's 4 x 100 relay team and their new world record.

Not often I support the Poms, can't stand the Indians for many reasons, not the least being their domination of the game administratively, all because of the mighty dollar or is that rupee..

Mock all you like yanks, I'll still enjoy the competition even if it's only to dominate the Poms overall.

We all do old dee, tough times for us geriatrics

Stats as we know don't always tell the story however Clisby, Gawn, Jones, Nicho and Strauss certainly had a decent share of the Sherrin.

Will await the player appraisal with interest.

He doesn't have the tank to run out a full game at the moment.

Check how many times he's been subbed out this year.

Correct, give him a full pre season and look out in 2015.
