One of the Kenyan lads is going on trial for murder when they go home?!

Can't help imagining the other guy trying to run away from him. Unwilling training partner?

Unwilling sexual partner according to the woman he alledgedly stabbed.

Innocent before proven guilty.

Maybe he might do a runner!

Hande hoche!

Gary Lineker and his bloody crisps.

Wait, some lad got disqualified for staying up late but a murderer is allowed to compete?

That guy went AWOL with his missus for three days, not just one night.

Wait - what did he try to stab her with?

Let's leave the alleged stuff for somewhere else, no disrespect meant to any victims.

LOL! maybe he fancied some sightseeing

Have to say I think Tony O'Donoghue, the athletics commentator for RTE has always been superb, going back as far as I can remember, to LA 84. Makes George Hamilton sound like an amateur. Though he must be getting on a bit now - thought be sounded a bit jaded commentating on the steeplechase final there. Still no idea what he looks like.

kfallon

1. Bolt
2. Gatlin
3. Blake

No world record

That's my prediction

the groutch

prediction time:

for me

Blake
Bolt
Gatlin

His pork sword.

nice_very

forget about the 100m result, any predictions on times?

I'd say a new OR 9.61 with all of them breaking 10s

Hercule Poirot

I agree with colin jackson, olympic record but no WR, 9.65(ish)

Diego Maradona

1: Blake
2:Bolt
3:Gay

9:55

phasers

Bolt
Blake
Gay

No WRs

I feel so immature but I keep LOLing when I see the guy with 'gay' pinned to his top

Gerry Kiernan great in the studio, one of the few RTE panelists (for any sport) that knows what he's talking about

Diego Maradona

It's mad all the hype and talk and it's all over within 10 seconds.

take everything

Bolt.
9:70 i'd say.

Colmustard

Bolt it has to be.

Then powell Then Gay.

JONJO THE MISER

Gone heavy on Bolt at 1.87 and again now at 1.33, easy money.

Have to say the British public were brilliant support for all our competitors cheering them on in all the events.
If that was some of our crowd they'd be booing their competitors. We need to change our mentality about our sporting neighbours. This OG really opened my eyes.

Diego Maradona

Boooooooooooooooooo Gatlin!

This no hoper in Lane 1 was really milking his ten seconds in the limelight there :pac:

J. Marston

Bolt.

5.72

Namlub

Something attractive about Blake...

Colmustard

Just think there is probably at least a billion people looking at this and we are all seeing it at the same time.

Pdoghue

Kiernan is great yeah - always strikes me fancying himself as being slightly subversive - playing the Dunphy or Hook role.

johnmcdnl

I really wish I could run a race against these lads just to see how fast they are.. I just can't imagine how fast they actually are in person..

take everything

Was one of these guys found to be clean at one stage. :pac::pac:
Joking.
