Scotland should hopefully give us a modest tally of around half a dozen golds with cycling being our best bet. As long as we outdo Wales I'll be happy Tongue

I liked the idea of them using brollys to display the name of each nation Smiley

And the Australian team seemed to wear my old school blazer!

Is it just me or is anyone else annoyed that New Zealand perform the Haka at every bloody sporting event now and it seems that everyone must wait while they perform it?

Come on Kiwis- it's not intimidating, it's just annoying Smiley

Ka tu te ihiihi.

Ka tu te wanawana.

I disagree-I love the haka.

Yeah, but before a match and then again afterwards if they win? When they won a team swimming event or something they even did it by the poolside! It's done ad nauseum that even I've just about memorised the chant! Smiley

Scotland should bring a Claymore, throw it into the Haka then charge, scattering them as they rush to reclaim it just for fun Wink But even that would get boring after a while.
