It's wierd seeing men in the women's teams

Twigg looked like she was out for a practice row. Even at the end all the other competitors were lying back , chests heaving and she was just smiling and didn't seem to be breathing heavily at all.

Well done to her. Blitzed them!!

What a row by Canada!

That was awesome by our girls to row past Australia and then hold off a fast finishing China and US

[Bovidae]

Canada too good but a great effort from the NZ girls.

Wow what a race in the Women's 8. Hard luck NZ.

[Crucial]

Just saw the Canada cox pull a phone out of her top. Is that legal?
Not accusing them but surely you could have a programmed stroke beep or similar going in that?

Edit: they seem to be allowed smart watches so I guess it’s all ok

That's amazing, I don't remember hearing about a NZ 8s crew winning anything since 1972

[Stargazer]

Men's Eight Final is at 1.25pm.

[Canes4life]

@stargazer are we a chance to medal here?

[Bovidae]

Watching the eights up close is an amazing sight. They're quick.
