        The Halbergs are going to be brutal this year. Team of the year especially. Carrington a contender to be nominated for both woman and team now?

        Team of the year is going to be mental. Team NZ, black caps, men's 8, women's pair, women's sevens, k2 500 have already achieved enough to be finalists normally.

        Right now, I'd say Lisa Carrington for SOTY, and Black Caps for TOTY. For the Caps to do what they did, with the resources they ahd was sensational. Lisa - just incredible; two golds so far, and a lifetime haul of 4 is insane.

            Ah, also men's shotput qualification (group A, Walsh) at 10.15pm, women's hammer throw final (Ratcliffe) at 11.35pm and more men's shotput qualification (group B, Gill) at 11.40pm.

            Also :horse_racing_dark_skin_tone: jumping individual qualifiers at 10.00pm, but there's the horses doing the work.

                        NZL leading, Spain right up our backside though, GBR on a different split and in 3rd.

                          Lead changes all over the place, could basically throw a blanket over the top 5. Why can't they be more like Lisa Carrington? Jut lead comfortably from start to finish and save us all the stress...

                            After first leg GBR with comfortable lead, Ger 2nd and NZL third. Spain dunk their boat and are in 4th about 50m behind NZL.

                              2nd leg GBR still in front and can match-race us from here, NZL say stuff that and go out the other side of the course to get a split. A risk but not much else you can do. Spain also done a great job of catching up.

                                  GBR and GER fighting it out for 1st place, NZL third - unfortunately barring a mistake from GBR it's looking like silver.

                                    NZ can be one behind GB but not two in this sale race. NZ 3rd, GBR 2nd. NZ need POL in 4th to piss off. GBR need to get in front of leaders Germany.

                                        Wondered why we were just following GBR around the course. But yes basically now were counting on GER beating GBR...

                                        Oh (&%^# it/...
