So what was Walsh's best throw? Hopefully these two will push each other</p></blockquote>

21.03m so far they are 2nd and 4th highest qualifying. Great result. -

<p>Gill has historically been a bit flaky under pressure at senior level. Being in 13th position (so not qualifying) going in for his 3rd round, to pull out a throw like that was really great. Hopefully its a big breakthrough for him regardless of what goes on tonight.</p>

She'll break the World Record in the 800 I reckon.</p> -
<p>Woken up to a silver from the Women's 470 and the obvious gold from the Men's 49ers. Nice. The men didn't even need to win but did anyway.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Women's 49ers FX up now. Just gotta beat Spain, Brazil and Denmark for gold, two of them for silver and one for bronze.</p> -

Blimey, you kept your entry quiet. Did you get kitted up in time for the start?
