Pretty easy to break world records when you’re competing against nuffies ffs

its probabaly easier if you are competing against the best who will push you to the limits, you're on a hiding to nothing competing against nuffies

there is a runner from PNG competing in the 200m qualifying and he seems pretty happy with himself for just competing, if this were the Olympics he wouldn't even qualify and would have never had this opportunity to perform on the big stage

it aint all bad

Cheapo games. It’s raining at the pool and they’re all getting wet.

The Campbell sisters as they call themselves

Legends in their own minds.

They are Painful

Cwealth Games are like being the fastest in your street, bring on China, USA and even rorting Russia.... Anyone!
Bump.

Crap swim by Bronte in the 4x100 medley ?

Buy the book called painful people and she is one, sorry for being negative about her, but she is just annoying

She might be high maintenance, but you said that the sisters are ony legends in their own minds and that their success at the CG was only bc of their poor opposition.

Clearly untrue.

Cate has held individual world records and Bronte mowed down the current olympic champion in the medley last night. Thorpie said that her freestyle split was the 6th fastest in history.

Her 51.57 time would have thrashed the Rio gold medalist who won that 2016 race in 52.70.

Shot put is on now.

I wonder how @TheRam ‘s mate would be travelling if not for the bung shoulder.

He still holds U16 schoolboy record. See how far ahead is was from the 2017 losers ?

Was watching that but they were mentioning the Aussie guy was the world record holder (seemed odd) and they were only throwing about 16m. So maybe it was a world record for a shot put in a pentathlon or something?
