I dont know NZ that well but they seem like the type of country who doesnt self-congratulate, prefer to let results do the talking

 

Australia on the other hand is fucking full of it.

 

Plus there arent many other rivals diluting matters down there!

 

The Kiwis are great and there is a bitter rivalry with the Aussies who 'look down' on them in a way - think they are superior. It irks the fook out of them here that the All Blacks are better than the Wallies.

Thanks, unless she gets DSQ, gold is a certainty? no idea how the points work, but they're saying she has gold already.

i've no idea how it works pointswise,but she's as good as assured it now. only a devon lock style cock-up can stop her

 

Ennis has 188 points lead over Skuiyte, who is a slow runner. This equates to over 12 seconds.

She has 270 lead over the rest of the field, which is over 17 seconds.

As there is only 9 points between 3rd and 5th, about 0.6 seconds, those three will be watching each other, and maybe hopeful of catching second, but cannot challenge Ennis.

Therefore the only way she can lose is to be disqualified or injured.

I have a Kiwi mate who is married to an Aussie, when they have an argument he has been known to refer to her as a dirty underarm bowling bastard. 30 years on + it still rankles!
