Birmingham CWG - Day 2 (Wednesday August 3rd)

[Mikka]

Daryll looked tight. Semi-final performance would have got the gold. A medal's a medal though.

[Occasional Hope]

Neita gets bronze behind ETH and Alfred.

Pity the championship record stands.

[Christy93]

My worry for Neita is having Alfred & Hobbs outside her. Could well get left out the blocks and tighten up.

Think my fear come to fruition there. Alfred was gone and Neita's face said exactly how much she panicked. Welcome bronze but a missed opportunity imo.

Darryl chose the final for a poor start but gets bronze behind ETH and Alfred.

Ack Daryll just got left in the blocks I think. Still a medal I think

[trickstat]

Agreed but I fear it may be slightly too cool.

[Christy93]

My worry for Neita is having Alfred & Hobbs outside her. Could well get left out the blocks and tighten up.

[trickstat]

He was gritting his teeth in a way that suggests that he had injured himself.

[DerbyCountyinNZ]

In more ways than 1!

[Occasional Hope]

He was definitely grimacing.

[alfie]

Omanyala a great run to beat Simbine ...

Not sure about NMB. Was he injured ? He did finish the race so maybe just gave up after missing the start else why even keep running ?

[Occasional Hope]

It would be nice to see Okagbare's championship record go.

[Christy93]

Abeykoon has run 9.96 this year. What is the commentator talking about? It's like he did no research, saw a Sri Lankan flag and presumed he was an also ran. Disrespectful tbh.

[trickstat]

Doesn't look good. Could be a bit of a make-do English 4x100 team.

[SprintRelayFan]

was just watching it back, I'm wondering if it's a hamstring..he seemed a bit tight out of the blocks but about 20 metres in it looks to me like something goes and he's really gritting his teeth by the end
