Big thanks to Bond and Murray as our pair went to the 4 as we couldn't get near them and now we win Olympic Gold.

Very pragmatic decision from Jurgen The German. Suppose it's a massive feather in the Enzedders' caps because he effectively said Reed & Triggs-Hodge couldn't beat them.

Our women's lighweight double sculls looking good for a medal at least. Between Greece, China & GB.

EDIT: 1.7 second lead 500m out, c'mon girls!!

Rowing costumes, like those of the track & field athletes, leave nothing to the imagination. So nice of the camerman to focus on the torso/waist >_>

What the **** happened there?

All for GB doing well, but if the rule is when they're beyond 100m they're gone it's only fair they go.
