I think the coverage on free to air tv has been appalling - since early this morning ( 430 am ) all I have seen are two couch experts, constant interviews of Australian athletes, and their coaches, families, next door neighbours etc etc ., and to see some of the events without interruption would make a nice change.
Just wondering, is the coverage any better on foxtel ? is it their fault sporting coverage on free to air commercial tv has declined over the years ?

You're suggesting it's something new. I'm telling you it's not.

What I meant by these games was the commonwealth games in general not just this one

Commonwealth Games are living on borrowed time.

Ok sorry TEAM GB then - Great Britain (GBR) is the team that sends athletes from the United Kingdom (UK), all but three of its overseas territories and the three Crown dependencies, to the Olympic Games.

So why doesn't the same apply for North and South Cyprus?

No need for anymore, you're only just ahead and it's not over. Will discuss once the final table exists.

A sports tournament going too long, are you sure you're male?

agree any sport on TV is brilliant, we have been lucky with the world cup finishing and the Games starting and then shortly all the leagues in Europe kick off.

I was watching the hockey late last night and seriously those guys have some serious skill and guts, anyone on here play and if so what's it like on your back?

PS i would much rather have watched the womes hockey

I played at school, so too young to have back issues. Filled in at uni as well for a few games.
