Mens Gymnastics

[Maydup]

Maybe bronze, then silver and finally bronze.

Well done the mens team but what a strain on the emotions!

Did the Chinese or Japanese complain or something like that ?

[DaisyNonna]

Japanese. Do not know what their appeal was.

[Maydup]

Original position was

China
GB
Ukraine
Japan

But Japan appealed their score and the appeal was upheld, so final outcome was

China
Japan
GB
Ukraine

Can't help feeling most sorry for Ukraine.

[DaisyNonna]

Forgot to say, Congratulations lads, you were superb!

The Japs appealed against their marks after their chap fell off the pummel horse but because he landed on his feet they wanted marks for it and subsequently got them.

Riveting stuff, nearly burnt my BBQ food running in and out to watch it

Well done but unlucky Team GB

Bless em, they were still pleased to have a medal at all. I suppose it was right that the Japanese gymnast got points for staying upright. Still disappointing for the crowd though, after the euphoria of silver. Go team GB!!! Now for the singles.

Great stuff well done GB it's a pity they don't have rules like other competitons when the editor or judges decision is final.

[Swanson]

Pure artistry I have to admit, well done chaps.
