Just a bit of an evening of clean fails, elbows, passing out, dropping weights on self, all sorts.
Kutulu fails 185 (which wouldn't have gotten him gold I don't think).

So that's the end of that one, folks.

149/179 Sivalingam of India
142/175 Kutulu Ravi of India
137/177 Etoundi of Australia
142/171 Jack Oliver

Champions are constructed over time ! Think how strong our home nations teams are going to be in four years !

Great lifting from some - Some guys a bit unlucky and what about that Zoe Smith ! Superstar !!


Really enjoying these Games !

Good to hear Mark - I take it the Clegg camp isn't going to quit and head over to Crossfit just yet then???

Speaking of future stars, today is Rebekah Tiler's first CW Games at just 15 years old with a shot at a medal. She lifts at 330, can't wait to see how this powerhouse performs.

I know some aren't too enthused with the commentary team but I've thought the coverage has been generally very good. It must be hard to spend 6 - 8 hours a day talking about two lifts without repetition or redundancy. And at least "the first pancake" is different from "pop a broomstick over your head" or "bone on bone".

I hope all the sessions are kept archived permanently somewhere after the Games have finished.

Rebekah Tiler down to start on 89kg.

I think I have time to feed the cats before she lifts.

AS far as I can tell yesterday's weightlifting isn't even on the iPlayer. Which is why I'm watching now when I should be training; don't want to miss Rebekah.
