    Getting addicted to wrestling. This stuff looks brutal and happens so quick. Some of these gents are HUGE.

    The Russian wrestler who survived poisoning to make it to these games just lost his match to a Georgian wrestler. But still in with a chance for bronze.

    No way!

    That has totally gone under the radar over here. It's been all about Culson and the boxers!

    Bilyal was poisoned before Beijing. Doctors said an ordinary man would have died. This incident plus injuries meant he missed the 2008 Olympics.

    PML at that last competitor just walking his horse through a fence.

    Hope the Irish guy won't be so embarrassing.

    Ed Mckeever - Team GB's 26th Gold!!!



    Still think were in with a shout of getting 30 Golds with our 3 finalists in the boxing, Mo Farah in the 5000m, and possibilities elsewhere. It will be tough, but if we get there it will be an amazing achievement

    Don't fancy picking up the poles after that horse did a big dump on them.

    Brazil's defense has been beyond ugly, while Mexico's has been fabulous.
