Hansen silver in the Women's sprint, Dawkins bronze in the Keirin, and Lewis Clareburt just won a bronze in the pool (400 medley.)

[Mokey]

Pool update: Clareburt follows up with a good heat in the butterfly, qualifies 6th fastest for tonight's final. Sophie Pascoe smashes everyone and qualifies fastest for 200 medley final. Gees, she is a beautiful swimmer to watch in the water. Makes it look effortless, and she has no stroke weakness in the medley like most swimmers do.

Someone’s got a crush..

She is an amazing athlete

[Mokey]

@virgil Not sure whether crush, or just complete jealousy!

[Mokey]

Ok, how the fuck did this NZ gymnast make the team? He has literally fucked up every single discipline.

Just watching a bit of Hong Kong sevens, which nations have sent their best to the games instead of HK, does anyone know? NZ has, Kenya have experience in HK so maybe not them.

Mixed triathlon won bronze - great performance by them, and really stoked for Andrea Hewitt to leave with a medal. Sam Webster easily won his best of three semi in the men's sprint, so will be going for gold against a Scot who easily beat the Aussie. Richie Patterson has crapped out in the weightlifting.

Thanks for the update Mokes.

Young fulla who won Gold in the mixed triathlon relay a local Hervey Bayan (Matt Hauser). Kind if know him or at least have a nodding acquaintance with his parents so that's real cool.

Cyclist Emma Cumming has won BRONZE in the women's 500 metre time trial. Another medal.

[Mokey]

Sam Webster smoked the Scot in the first sprint race. If he wins the next one, gold medal.

[Mokey]

GOLD for Sam Webster! Much, much tighter race in the second, won it by a tyre. Back to back Commonwealth champion in this event.

[canefan]

Gold for Sophie Pascoe in the 4x50m individual medley. She almost passed out during the post race interview! Dominant performance

[MiketheSnow]

Cracking evening in the squash.

Both Welsh No. 1s through to the SF

Tesney for the ladies and Aberdare boy Joel Makin for the men.

[Mokey]

@canefan Yeah, hope she is ok. Doesn't look too well.

Maybe she was hiding an illness

[Mokey]

@canefan Poor thing was being held up by an official after the interview to stop her collapsing. Just heard she is ok, just badly dehydrated.

On a side note, the amount of ads is absolutely fucking ridiculous.

I watched the swimming live in Duke, they played it on delay on TV1. Pascoe did mention in her interview after the heats that she was finding it really hot. That is the risk in an outdoor pool I suppose

And Campbell Stewart wins silver in the men's scratch race with a well timed sprint finish. Great medal day! We now have 3 gold, 4 silver, 5 bronze.
