Mine easily would have to be the women's marathon.
Any others?

Women's weightlifting.

Commentators saying stuff like:

"What a great snatch!"

Michelle Wu, the 13 year old diver, a bit young for me, but in 5 years she'll be in certain video collection, directed and produced by me. :lol: :wink: :roll: :twisted: :?

Best
Matt Cowdrey dominating in the pool
Leisel Jones - I wanna to give it to her bad. Her and Libby at the same time. oh yeah.
Darryl Eastlake commentating - Never seen so much weightlifting in my whole life.

Worst
Mottram gettin tripped in the 1500
The womens 4x400. Tamsyn has lost all of my respect after that. Did not deserve gold.
The Gymnastics - BORING

duncs y is it tasmyns fault... the english broke the rules.. every one in athletics knows that at the 200 metre mark u line up in that order....

no1 complained when we beat the vics 20 years ago when they had 4 on the bench but was to have three yet we lost the game by 10 goals......

and just like horse racing regardless of appeals the judges will review the race before their decisions.....

maybe next time duncs

i quite enjoyed the track cycling

and just on the topic of the commonwealth games...Did anyone notice the officials at the athletics?? my question is why do all officials at these types of events need to be all old bastards!!!!

They are all old bastards who try to get to involved in the sport.... they make a big fuss about someone who finished last from Gernsy who stepped 3mm outside her lane. Just stay out of it and only step in if it's something serious. Plus why are they all old?? what.. no young people can officiate in athletics.

Nikki Hudson's goal in the Women's Hockey Gold Medal match-as good as you'd see.

Not the rules im against. It was the fact that Tamsyn jestured the Pom to take the wrong lane and straight after the race RAN to the official to complain. Thats not Aussie! They won by a mile and 1 lane difference wouldnt have mattered.
And the footy game ur talkin about????? Ive got no idea, but b4 my time.
