    There are 5 more horses to do their horsing so that's it, those of us who watched Snatch will not get to see the Clean and Jerk live.

    What I really also don't get is that red button stuff is now useless. I swear back in 2012 you could watch every event on Sky if you wanted. I'd have blamed it on COVID but Eurosport have a commentary team at the sodding weightlifting.

    Because Eurosport/Discovery took most of the sports.

    BBC lost the rights to Discovery so they are only permitted two live streams. One on BBC1 and one on the red button.

    Also, it feels like the Korean has come out too light again.

    Feel she could have gone for the silver if she and/or her coaches were a bit more aggressive.

    Live comms Mahow?

    How's the Brit doing? Presumably the Chinese has gone for dinner while the rest of them are pissing about?

    Campbell has got bronze sewn up (unless Wenwen fails three times). Korean went way too low.

    Very impressive lift. Not sure how she held it during the jerk but she did. 7 kg over her PB to get silver.

    Don't you have Sky Q?

    You can get Discovery+ for free if so.

    And now on the two channels we have someone talking about their horsing and a commentator talking about horsing in general.

    Outstanding work.

    Wor Tranny failing on basic technique having nevertheless rammed the weight easily above their head should really end the 'debate'.

    You need to make an account and it's a red button affair on any Discovery channel.

    Absolutely.

    Also, IIRC there was a hefty sign up time so I'd have had to tell him yesterday.

    Spain/GB hockey quarters has gone to a shootout.

    On BBC one, BBC red button (makes sense lads) and probably multiple Eurosport channels too.

    Well the men aren't, they can never agree and London was a one-off. The women lost to the Aussies in the Quarter finals.
