    TBF if you look closely, she goes outside her lane twice, and the first time was before any contact.

    Still, win the next two and it doesn't matter.

    It's the right decision but it's still a right pain in the prick. Come on Vic.

    Hmm, if you look at the replay of that second one, Meares does cross the line as well...

    That judging absolutely stinks. Shafted out of 2 golds. Bet the authorities are happy.

    People in the know weren't arguing so we have to accept that these are the rules.

    Well they changed the rulles of entry into the Olympics so that one country couldn't dominate. Didn't work.

    Off to Hoy's Keirin..!

    Then the rules are wrong. In the team sprint, China were the fastest team, and got shafted out of the gold. Pendleton was fastest in the individual, got shafted too,.
