Watching these slo-mos and how close their heads get to the board... :eek:

Pigeon_Killer · 9 Aug 2016 at 20:46

They were even closer :eek:

That diving pool, is err, quite green

Craig1981 · 9 Aug 2016 at 20:55

Looks like gold for China.

Craig1981 · 9 Aug 2016 at 20:57

Its pure liquid Zika! :eek:

North Korea fluff their lines. Chance of Bronze for GB.

Pigeon_Killer · 9 Aug 2016 at 21:00

Wouldn't want to be that North Korean girl when she gets back home.

Poor dive needed here for the Canadians or we'll only get 4th.

Edit: 4th it is

Pigeon_Killer · 9 Aug 2016 at 21:04

Shocking last dive from Toulson and we drop down to 5th

Craig1981 · 9 Aug 2016 at 21:04

5th actually :/

marc2003 · 9 Aug 2016 at 21:08

Well the Chinese certainly deserved their gold. Even to the untrained eye like mine, they looked awesome.

Pigeon_Killer · 9 Aug 2016 at 21:09

Yep, there's 8 disciplines and they're the overwhelming favourite for all of them

Another medal missed in the women's 10m diving, but at least they missed the dreaded 4th.

Sadly the women couldn't produce a great last dive like Daley and Goodfellow did for a medal.

Aye they were wonderful.

Yes they said rio2016 was going to make an announcement regarding it, I ponder if this is some eco statement.
Wouldn't like to be that Kim girl going home to best korea, she will have to hope they confuse her for the other Kim girl.

It seems to me that the other pool at the side is going green, unless my TV is borked

I'm surprised they didn't drain and clean the pool overnight.

More diving tonight at 8pm. I'm going for China > Russia > Mexico

Pigeon_Killer · 10 Aug 2016 at 18:14

Never really been interested in 3M diving but Mears and Laugher won gold in the European championships this year beating the Russians in to silver. Fancy China to dominate again but reckon we're in with another medal shout.

Craig1981 · 10 Aug 2016 at 20:06

Fingers crossed that they can do it!

Craig1981 · 10 Aug 2016 at 20:19

Excellent second dive from the Brits. For the moment they are in first place. But not over yet.
