It is some achievement from Tattie.
He'd struggle a bit if he had to rush straight from his work to play his ties though.

callum watkins approx 2 mins ahead in the marathon but he's all over the place, bumping into barriers, now fell, still got a mile and a half left, collapsed again, no medical help in sight fs, both commenators saying it's a disgrace
I would go a bit further and say it was an utter disgrace how long they took to get there. It was heartbreaking watching Hawkins, who would have been the deserved winner, but was starting to look delirious, fell over and stayed down for a few seconds before getting up and trying to continue for a while, only to collapse again. All this time and not a medic in sight. Absolutely disgraceful, and the Scotland team should make a formal complaint IMO.
our 7's just beat wales and now play australia for 5th place, our basketball gadgies beaten by new zealand for a bronze :(

Commentator on the Gold Coast
He's hit his head on the barrier. I'm sorry if you're watching this at home, it's really distressing. He's going to hurt himself and there's nobody anywhere near.
We should have some more medical attention. This is a guy in real distress and someone needs to recognise it for his health at this point
.
Where on earth is the help? You cannot just wait at the finish line. They've got radios.
And finally somebody arrives. I think it's disgraceful.
btw, just how gawjus is the gold coast scenery and lovely blue sky :agree:
Fantastic games for Wales! Our best ever finish and nipped in just ahead of Scotland in the medal table!
Michael Johnson called it right. He said that as soon as it became obvious the lad was in distress he should have been immediately surveiled and medics and officials deployed to his location. That could have had a decidedly darker outcome had Hawkins sustained a head injury - the official statement is just an excercise in arse-covering.
quite impressed at the brum handover video :greengrin
