      Women's hockey:

      The Netherlands are the first to score.
      0 - 1 NL

      Disappointing. On the flip side some of the Dutch girls are quite hawt

      I stayed in these same hotel as the Dutch field hockey team once in the Nehtherlands.

      Many of them, are indeed, seriously seriously hot. On the flip side, the shortest one was about 6ft 1.

          Full time:
          The Netherlands 3 - 0 New Zealand

          The Dutch progress to the semis, the Kiwis are out.
          Can't really complain. The Dutch were just so much better.

          The previous women's hockey quarter-finals:
          Germany 0 - 3 Argentina
          Australia 0 - 1 India

          The last quarter-final:
          Spain v Great Britain (at midnight NZT).

            Tough result, that. They'd been going along reasonably well.

                        Just watched the +86kg mixed weightlifting. Tbh I’m not really sure if Hubbard is out of place. It’s hard to even know what species these athletes are.

                        Edit. She’s gone. Seems she’s constantly plagued by injury, which isn’t surprising given her age and the event.

                                    Huh? I just watched her lift 125? Wasn't that the snatch?

                                    Edit- Did it not count, I see she's not on the leaderboard

                                    Yeah too much arm wobble. Should have challenged it.
