World Indoor Championships - Valencia 2008

Well done Scotty Martin!
Had me worried for a while...

Hope bib #13 is lucky for him in the final

Scott Martin just set a new Australian record of 20.83! Thought that would gladden your heart, Vault-emort!

The absence of javelin, discus, hammer and the marathon and Tommi Evilä skipping the indoor season really hurts Finland... now Häggblom's out in the SP it's pretty sure we won't even get a top 8 spot in any event. :cry:

Oh well. I guess I'll have to root for the Swedes instead.

[Vault-emort]

Yep - I guess he'd have got through in 8th position anyway, but nice confidence booster going into the final I guess.

Am hoping for a good showing for the small Aussie team in today's sessions. I think all of em should at least make the final. And the Kiwis haven't had a bad start either.

Steve Cram in love with Craig Mottram on the BBC.

lol the love might not last in the commentary box with Chambers coming up.

I can never work out how/why such a big guy as Buster can do so well on those tight tracks

Tereshin having all sorts of bother in the HJ
Devetzy was impressive in TJ quals
