Well done.

Never thought of myself as a diving fan but was enthralled by the 10m women's synchro yesterday, those Chinese girls were unbelievable and for the Aussies to be the best of the rest was a fantastic achievement, well done Aussies!

Bloody magnificent. This guy Matthew Mitcham is a STAR!!!!

What a super dive to win it (112.10) . What a f*cking superstar. Unbelievable. Thank god for the internet that i got to watch it live. Seven still haven't shown one of the most amazing sporting achievements in Australian Olympic history.

IIRC at least 2 judges gave him a perfect 10 for his last dive...

...and a little pat on the back for a great effort by our 14 yo...Tom Daley finishing 7th...hopefully good experience for 2012

JAS

I think i read and heard that MITCHAM suffered from vertigo

More than 2 gave him 10. Think all but 2 did. He got 9.5 from those 2 i think.
