Come on, America.....move your bloomin' ass!!

Come on, ya tossers......stop playing second fiddle to the Chinese!!

They've got you guys in the Men's and Women's Team Gymnastics, they've got you in Diving and they've got you on the Medal Tally.

Now can you move your butts in the Track & Field next week and become the NUMERO UNO which you so richly deserve?

Good luck, America.....this ole' Kiwi's rootin' for you!!

All the best - JJ

Bloody hell...I've seen it all now.

Rumour has it on the Chinese run 'The Fake Rolex Forum' old JJ has been waffling on in perfect Cantonese saying "come on ya tossers..."

Support your own bleeding country you Kiwi git...these Americans hardly need the ego boost do they!!!!!!!

The Kiwis have my whole-hearted support, Jim. Moss Burmester did exceptionally well in coming 4th in the 200 m Butterfly and giving champion, Michael Phelp, a real run for his money in the first 100 m.

Our rowers are doing pretty well too, most of them having qualified for the weekend's finals.

And you Brits aren't doing too badly yourselves.

Cheers - JJ

We're just giving China a false sense of security by giving them the early gold lead. I think you'll find that we will be thoroughly trouncing them in track & field.

As soon as the Chinese start playing by the same rules as the rest of the world there will be hope. I thought the USA's women's gymnastic team would pull it out last night but they spit the bit (choked). Men's team lost both Hamm's this year to injury so they had a pretty good showing with two of their top guys missing. Phelps is awesome and thanks to some Aussie very motivated. USA USA USA,

Had to laugh at how the US does there Medal count to make themselves at the top . Shouldn't you count the most Gold 1st. They showed a reply of NBC news on our local news broadcast tonight to highlight this . Had a good laugh .

Medal count is not important to me as long as we do our best. Unfortunately, the USA has not done its best in some events and left "Olympic Hardware" on the table.

I miss most of the events anyway - I am usually passed out in bed when th good stuff comes on

Looking forward to the track and field!!

Hooray...old Pube head Murray (or Screech Powers) is completely out of the tennis!

I know you shouldn't boo one of your own but I can't help but jeer the Scottish tosspot!

Let's hope he shags up the US Open too!
