    Don't know what it is about the Black Sticks women, but fuck me days they really do save some rubbish performances for the top tournaments. Just drew 0-0 with Canada. NZ are ranked 4th in the world. Canada 21st.

    Out on a limb here but my prediction is it will end in tears as they yet again miss out on a medal (losing the semi final)

    Mental midgets. Or maybe they'll get their rubbish game out of the way before medal rounds

    It does seem that they just want to find an All Black to marry. Hockey is a means to an end but at least they have a goal.
    The Blues don't appear to.

    Is it a must win?

    @canefan If the Black Sticks can get a draw or win, they will go through top of pool thanks to that big win over Ghana, and probably avoid England in the semis.

    Tom Walsh qualified for the shot put final with one throw - and casually smashed the Games record by 84cm. He was 2m in front of the others. 22.45.

    Fucking 76% shooting percentage. That is just not good enough at this level.

    Go Malawi, where ever that is.

    Is Netball just going through a bad phase ala Rugby League or is it that other sports have simply purged netball's talent pool?

    We're 1 and 3 in the 1km individual time trial after Dawkins posted a GR time with one Aussie rider to ride

    Insanely good ride by Dawkins considering he did this for shits and giggles. But Glaetzer set another new Games record, so if you are going to be beaten, I guess be beaten by the best.

    @sneakdefreak I think a variety of factors at play. We lost some true greats to retirement in the past few years. Some players (eg Folau) have been playing on past feats. Lots of young uns who will be better for the experience, but still learning the ropes. You can just see on the court, the flow isn't there. Wayward passing, lots of penalties which means they aren't assessing space very well, and then that lacklustre shooting in the circle. Also not terribly impressed with the coaching line up. The Ferns seem to have stagnated big time.
