O’Keefe’s been injured so will do ok but not super I’d expect.
I’d expect Alistair Africa to make the final but he’ll flop in then.
Gillick should make final. Expect him to come in 5th or 6th.
McGettigan probably won’t do much in the final but should make it comfortable enough.
Hession should make the semi in the 200m and possibly the final.
Heffernan and Loughnane could do very well but they’re in the walks so who really cares?
Rest won’t make finals.
Saw her earlier and she looked fairly decent alright…although most of them track and field ones are fairly flat in the auld bosom stakes…Denise Lewis would get it
Let them make their money now, then you can fork on the poundage to them later in life with a sprong. She’d give you the ride of your life in the meantime I’d say.
Is the 100m final at 8.30?
Ennis is a hardy wee bitch.
Saw the last couple of hundred metres of it…Tough out alright…
Shes got a cracking face.
I’m watching the golf but will they be showing highlights of the 100m later?
the leggy swedish one isn’t half bad either
SHe was alright. Bit of The Cheerleader about Ennis.
Bolt lacks confidence…
shy by nature I would say
Fuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
New world record…9.58, super stuff…
Freak !
