And you are an expert in swimming? Talking about technique lol.





yes i swim since i am 3, was competetive and later a judge.
Now stop picking a fight for no reason.


The reason was your whining comment about dont let another chinese doper win. How can you be a judge in swimming? I dont get that. What do you need 2 judge?


It´s obvious you know nothing about swimming if you think there aren´t any judges.


So what do you need to judge then?

Assuring a correct turn in the ends, manual timetaking as backup to electronic system, illegal moves in the lanes etc. I have been disqualified enough to know.


Ok thanks for the explanations. Now I know.

Well we're a diddy country its impressive enough getting to all these finals against countries with many times our population O.O.


like australia/france ?

France have a bigger population and many more pools, to the aussies I tip my hat.


We sucked for a loooooooong time at swimming; hell until the last decade :D
And we don't have that much of a bigger population; just saying that it's not really the deciding factor compare to culture/momentum.

Suprisingly they have a very similar pop to GB O.O. Dafuq we're so cramped in our country .

I honestly can´t tell if you´re serious or are just deliberately devaluing the role. I´m sorry if you really didn´t know, but as a ex swimming judge myself I felt a bit annoyed.

We will still win on the medal count, usually fourth is pretty good for GB. They were hoping to beat Russia this time but based on the first few days it looks unlikely. Cav, Adlington, Armistead, Daley/Waterfield could all have golds already ability wise.

We still got a bunch of rowing and cycling to come up. I doubt we will golds in much or anything else though this time round =/.
