The Dutch Olympic association guy surprised at the sudden reaction as the paedo has been playing top level beach volleyball for years. Almost like no one gives a flying **** about the sport except at the Olympics when hiding a paedo in plain sight in your tinpot game gets exposed to the whole world. Damn straight the guy should be punished twice; some crimes should prevent you appearing in top level sport even after your criminal punishment has concluded.

Quite so.

I mean, it probably comes as a shock to some of the sport's more, er, casual fans that men actually play beach volleyball anyway.

Women's beach volleyball is essentially pronograhpy for cowards.

I see an Australian swimming coach has said he hopes a Korean swimmer beats his guys. And in other Korean news they've been breaking records in archery qualification

Spain 2-1 Japan

Paula Radcliffe apologises for wishing ‘good luck’ to convicted rapist at Olympics

Paula Radcliffe has apologised for wishing good luck to a convicted rapist when he competes for the Netherlands at the Paris Olympics next week
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

Flew to the UK when he was 19 to rape a 12 year old he'd met online knowing her age full well.

I like horses as much as the next man, but in light of his Dujardin has been slightly stuffed, surely?!

Yet another to add to the long list supporting the view:

'There's only two things I hate in this world. People who are intolerant of other people's cultures and the Dutch.'

What is it about SA and tournament rugby? Lost 2 group games then take out NZ in the QF’s. Big surprise, and maybe it opens the draw up for the French if they can beat Argentina?

The atmosphere for this match is fantastic.

Says something that Dupont isn't starting for how different 7's is to 15s.

France 5-0 kick to come.
