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.

Looking at the schedule, the Kiwi action for the rest of the day is on the cycling track.

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.

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.
