Hey all,

How good is it that Melbourne is hosting the Commonwealth Games!!!!

What are all your thoughts so far on the performances by certain people??

The Aussies are doing heaps good, particularly in the cycling and swimming.

What sport do you like watching the most??

I like watching any sport really :) .

Vicki Parnov, she's one for the future, Kym Howe will be competitive in Beijing if she keeps improving. Good to see big Jason Dudley get the bronze in the Decathlon - could have been Gold if he could run a decent 1500! I'm stoked with the athletics teams performance, only 3 less gold than the swimming in what was definatly a more competitve arena.
