rocket_scientist Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Ok I get it. Partially. Blank 7th end means GBR keep the hammer. 4-4 in the 8th. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8414-winter-olympics/page/3/#findComment-201833
rocket_scientist Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Terrible choice of shot at the end of the 9th by wettie boy. So says Steve Cram of all people. Swiss already lying two. Stunning hammer picks up FIVE and a 4 shot lead. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8414-winter-olympics/page/3/#findComment-201834

Tyrant Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Watched highlights (I think?) of the Womens Ice Hokey gold medal match between the USA of America and Canadia. Went to a shootout which the Yanks won for the first time since 94. Exciting stuff. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8414-winter-olympics/page/3/#findComment-201848
wee toon red Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 And GBR get the hammer again in the 7th? WTF is going on? That's 5-2 to GBR last rocks? Whoever gets the shot or point(s) in the previous end goes first in the next one, ie if you win the end you go first in the next one. If it's a blank end, whoever went first in that one goes first in the next one. Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8414-winter-olympics/page/3/#findComment-201858

Kowalski Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Oh well. Fingers crossed for a bronze medal tomorrow. I’ve been pretty disappointed with the coverage. Balding, who I think is a very capable presenter, has portrayed ridiculous jingoism throughout the tournament. We are a nation of mild winters, small mountains and limited facilities. The obsession for medals at the Winter Olympics is ridiculous. They should just concentrate on showing some great sport instead. Balding has been a nightmare and has had to be corrected a few times by her guests. Hazel Irvine is great though. Proper sports journalist with knowledge and manners.

scotfree Posted February 26, 2018 Report Share Posted February 26, 2018 Definitely my preferred olympics. Annoyingly due to the time difference I’ve missed most so far. Hoping to catch up tomorrow Is New Zealand not only have 3 or 4 hours time difference from South Korea?

Kowalski Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Starts next week. Apparently Team GB could do well?! Interestingly I see the USA are sending ICE to Milan! Not sure if they’re doing the bobsleigh or the skating. Bound to be handy for the shooting element of the biathlon though. 1 Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/8414-winter-olympics/page/3/#findComment-277089
