wonder if there's an outside chance of a GB medal here... won't be gold, but it'd be nice to finish with a bronze

[GypsyGoth]

The swimming has been great, I'll miss it.

[Shaun]

hmm, equal third with Hungary, but our 2nd swimmer's falling behind pretty sharply :/

[Shaun]

Japan are stunning USA

[Shaun]

Phelps overtakes him though

[Locke.]

USA have got this now

[Shaun]

awwww, GB fourth

[Black Dagger]

N'aww, hard luck, it hasn't been our year in the pool.

Do we have a chance in the outdoor 10k? I think we got silver in 2008 in that.

Edit: Oh Silver and Bronze.

[Lee.]

I didn't know Phelps was retiring

[Shaun]

if it wasn't for Magnussen we'd have got bronze, but he's outstanding

[lostalex]

Awesome way for Phelps to end his Career. I salute you Michael Phelps. greatest Swimmer of all time! :bow:

[Munchkins]

Awww 4th place

Michael Phelps though - Just amazing

[GypsyGoth]

For me Missy Franklin and Michael Phelps have been the stars of the pool

I agree. There was so much talk about Ryan Locte before the games, but i think he was disappointing. Phelps showed so much class though, and Missy Franklin was just fun to watch, she seems like such a good-spirited fun girl. Girl next door.

^^^ Bit harsh on Loc let's be honest if it was not for the back to back on the same night he would have beat Phelps in the 200 IM(think that was the event) that being said Phelps is by far the greatest Olympic athelete ever

[Shaun]

Franklin, Kromowidjojo, Le Clos and Phelps for me. Not sure how to spell the dutch woman's name
