1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: I love watching the Olympics. I've told you this before, 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 1: and you know I'm still watching. I'm still excited, but 3 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: there are just a few little niggly things that are 4 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 1: putting a slight dampner on it for me. The river 5 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 1: sin dirty again. Did you see that in the news overnight? 6 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,720 Speaker 1: That's the second day with no practice. I mean, you've 7 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: got to do a triathlon. You want to practice swimming 8 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,320 Speaker 1: in the river that you're going to compete in, but 9 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: you can't because it's dirty. It's filled with the coalie 10 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: and it rained in the weekend. It's still affecting the 11 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:33,680 Speaker 1: water quality. So that's the second day in a row 12 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: with no practice and you won't know whether you're going 13 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 1: to swim in the Sein until four hours before the 14 00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: race is due to start. Could this have been avoided? 15 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 1: Could you have picked another river you know to swim? 16 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: And I would have thought so. The opening ceremony, that's 17 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: another thing. I mean, obviously Celendon was amazing, but the 18 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 1: weird meandering lead up to Selene was the athletes themselves 19 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: are actually complaining about the beds being uncomfortable, the room's 20 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: been too hot, the food is bad, and they say 21 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: this is affecting their chance of breaking world records. That's 22 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: not great. Donna Demeyo actually is going to talk to 23 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 1: us about that shortly from Australia. The other thing is 24 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: that we've got no medals. And I'm not complaining because 25 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: obviously I'm not there racing myself. I'm not jumping in 26 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: the pool and swimming, so I'm not going to complain 27 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: about that. But it is nice to win a medal, 28 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: isn't it, And we haven't done that yet. And then 29 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,959 Speaker 1: there's the Canadian football team who've cheated. They now want 30 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 1: the points that have been deducted put back on. Should 31 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: you still be able to remain in the Olympics when 32 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: you've essentially cheated? I mean, imagine if the Canadian women's 33 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: football team actually got the gold medal even though those 34 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: sent drones up in the air. Does that seem fair? 35 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. So there's just a few problems that 36 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: seem to be quite avoidable, a few rules that seem 37 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: to be a little bit unfair. However, in saying all 38 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,720 Speaker 1: of that, I'm still watching and for more from News 39 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: Talk st B.
