It's like I'm watching our worst nightmare

Hate to say it, but this is looking like a real big choke - Clearly the 2nd best team all comp but couldn't deliver when it counted  :'(

Was a terrible game by the Boomers.  They need to re-group and step up against the Spanish to get the Bronze

Amongst people that have knowledge of cricket. There'd be many people out there that were watching it that would have no idea.

It was a silly comment anyway :P

CHLOEEEEEE

Amazing performance.
Love it when an unexpected Gold Medal is won.  Great work Chloee coming from 9th to win on the last disciplines

Turned on the TV at about 7:30am to get ready to watch the Boomers, and I see Chloe cross the finish line in the Pentathlon! What a legend!  ;D

Ringo

Just watched the replay of the shooting/running. Turned a 45 second deficit into a 10 second winning Gold medal.  Yep what a legend and great attitude as well.

Alright Boomers

Here we go - just hope tonight is a lot better than the last outing

Fek that burned, officiating in the FIBA game is tedious and perplexing, it was bad for both sides...

That said there is some promise with all our best players other than Andersen being so young

Why call these soft fouls in the last 2 minutes - Really cost Oz the bronze especially the last one called blocking when he did not move so should have been a charging foul.

Anyway congratulations to all participants who made  finals and those who participated,

The fouls have been consistently perplexing mate, all games, it has tainted what was an otherwise good tournament of play
