+x+x+xJapan levels with Australia on gold. Australia with 7 medals more. Japan has 2 wrestling finals today. France bearing down with MP gold nearly assured but they surely won't win the women's basketball. So 4th is probably most likely? Likely. Japan should win 1 if not 2 of those bouts. Australia a decent chance in cycling but probably a silver. Japan have someone in the front group in marathon with 7km left but surely not. Shame 4th wouldve been imsane. Womens rugby our biggest miss but we also won tennis which no one expected

It's not 'total medals' that is the tie breaker, it's most Silvers. As of writing, we are 6 ahead of Japan. +xapparently the weird breakdancing was a protest - that bring breakdancing into the olympics would make it mainstream which would be racist (cultural appropriation I'm guessing) not sure I follow what she is saying, and there could be a good point somewhere in there, but on the upside I feel less bad about having a chuckle Took me a while to find what you meant re: breakdancing being a protest. The protest was actually in her "PE Teacher" uniform - She wanted to wear what every other athlete in other sports would wear, in attempt to legitimise the sport.

Opals win bronze. Ran the clock down, just.... Belgium had the ball after an out with a shortened shot clock and I don't think it occurred to them and the time ran out.

Damn Japan got a gold in wrestling. Australia silver and bronze in men's kieren. Silver probably nailed on in women's omnium but he final points race can go all directions. This will be the Australian team's final act of the games.

Japan get their 20th gold. Australia will finish 4th.
No idea what Baker was doing in the points race. Finished top 3 in first 3 different types of races and points race is heaps of laps with 20 points for lapping the field and many sprint race points. She ranked 20th of 23 with 0 points for the round. She either had nothing left, was injured or got wedged with a strategy that was terrible.

That breakdancer chick was the FUNNIEST thing ever... Reminded me of Ricky Gervais dancing in the original UK "the office" ... I bet she had a poster of "Special K" on her wall growing up .... hahahahahahah

Glad to do it and have enjoyed the Olympics since I was a kid. Now it's over I won't be clicking through millions of tabs with all the live numbers during work. Paris did a good job.
