Also great to see the Canadian Andre De Grasse last night to claim the mens 200m final, kept 3 other American's at bay
Its great watching track and field in prime time on 7 plus App everynight.

There you go, 2 example of your own posts the prove you are Australian since you cant get a passport or vote here unless you are. I know you wont reply as its you style when shut down.

Now enough of showing you up once again and back to the olympics chat.

Amazing mateship in the men's decathlon (in my opinion the ultimate Olympics event of all) from the Aussies. Great to see moments like that occur in the games.
