Jebus, the Poms OWN the Velodrome. Well done to Hoy and Edgar.

And Usain Bolt is insanely fast in the 100m sprint.

Hehehe. As long as those stoopid Sheep Shaggers can't use the joke "what do Michael Phelps and Australia have in common?". Not likely to be used seeing they are sitting on 1 gold and 2 bronze.

Kudos to the UK cycling team. They look awesome.

Australia hanging on to 4th place in the medal tally by our fingertips. A couple of certain Golds for the UK in cycling v a couple of near certain Golds in sailing for Aus. Grant Hackett a rough show in the 1500m swimming.

Could be a good Ashes contest. Cool

It will be close definitely. We can all be united in our terrible T&F.

Although Australia have already won a bronze in the 20k walk Cool

For Australia, T&F stands for "Terrible and Farked". Tamsyn Lewis personified that tonight. What a tw@t.

Quite funny. Laughing

Well, not if you consider each of the 11 gold medals we got all the 8 times we won at hockey.

And I'm sure we didn't have a 1Billion pop 108 years ago.

Usain Bolt took the piss in his semi-final. He was jogging the last quarter and still eased to 9.85. I'd be amazed if he didn't take gold now.

Aye, insanely good. Looks like he could almost run backwards to win the Gold. Hope he breaks 9.72 in the Final by actually running right through the finish line.
