We've done well with medals so far, just haven't converted to golds like we would've hoped.

Only real disappointments are the BMXing and boxing.

Sailing too. We got 3 golds in this in Tokyo.

That ex-diving lady pundit looks nice but offers so little insight into her own sport. She just says what any casual viewer can see and says how well everyone did. Basically just a cheerleader.

I think we are just weaker in sailing now though?

We had a few hopes but things didn't go our way. The one woman was I think in the lead going into the last race.

Oh yeah I guess we had a few BS weather related nonsense that stopped us medalling

Yeh, USA vs Serbia in the other Semi. Germany are the favourites, but Wemby is so good.

It's looking a bit more promising. 2 GB ladies through to final in velodrome. Surely a decent chance of gold.

Unless they get the first result reversed cause the opponent crossed the red line. Seems legit to me, he did it 2 or 3 times.
