    Just watched Anna Meares win her third Gold Medal in a row in the 500m sprint.

    Sensational effort

    Even better, the silver medalist was Stephanie Morton also from Australia. Best part of that, she was introduced as a Western Bulldogs supporter ... Commentator responded to that fact with 'Western Bulldogs supporter? She'll know how to grit out a win'

        I had no idea they were on, i've been in a cave apparently. We seem to be going well, who would've thought it??

          Only realised they were on yesterday, myself. I don't understand the relevance of the Commonwealth Games - much the same as the relevance of a Commonwealth or having a head of state from England (anyway that is topic for another day).

            They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              No he said he wasn't that way inclined. But he did invite me into his arms.

                My mate is Head of Sport for the Commonwealth Games, if it wasn't for that I'd be completely disinterested.
