Always had a lot of time for Steve Hooker, and with the battles that he's had over the past year, I wanna see what happens there. Probably be watching through my fingers though.

They pretty much cover most things here, between pay tv and free to air.
True it is you get your constant replays of your own country's gold medals in between other events, but there are going to be about six or so channels dedicated to the Olympics here, so I think most everythign will be shown somewhere.
Our best commentators won't be there this time, unfortunately.

You may as well make Robot Wars an Olympic sport.

The hockey should be great this year.

Oh I'll probably watch loads, but I'm particularly looking forward to the children killing themselves in a fight to the death in controlled environs . I can only assume that will be an event because of the amount of "let the Games Begin" headlines, and general bigging up of The Hunger Games themes.
Do you think these headline writers have actually watched the film?

Looking forward to hockey the most. Am going to two sessions (NZ vs Korea & Aus vs SA in the mens, plus NZ vs Aus & Netherlands vs Belgium in the women's), which should be awesome. Got a spare ticket to those men's games actually, if anyone's keen...
Other than that, mainly athletics.

Jingoism in a nationality-based sporting competition - oh the horror!

Australia do it better than the rest imo.

I'm looking forward to track events (sprints and middle distance), weightlifting, boxing, basketball, volleyball, anything martial arts and wrestling.
Whether my country wins medals or not doesn't really matter to me at all. I think that is the dullest part of the whole thing, it's the individual achievements that matter in most of the sports, not the country of origin. I think of the Olympics as largely an individual's competition.
Doesn't help being Australian and despising swimming btw.
