ANyone else think it's going to miss the roided out Russians?? Being in Sweden it's always quite a big event as they generally do well. Looking forward to it think the ioc have bottled it a bit with letting the Russians compete under non country rules.

Agree about the hockey. I usually look forward to it but not sure now.
I thought it was in S Korea?

I similarly misunderstood the OP, was sure it was in South Korea not Sweden
A wonderful country that I was fortunate enough to spend a couple of years living and working in, I'm watching as much to see how the country is shown to the world as the sport itself...i usually enjoy the winter olympics more than the summer games anyway...

My knowledge of some of the sports in the Winter Olympics is really limited, but I was just watching a snowboarding event which was really exciting, then back to curling which, to me, is really boring in comparison. There's obviously a lot of skill involved in curling, and credit to the competitors too, but I really can't get into it at all. It looks like bowls on ice to me.

Elise Christie fell again in the semi final. It was her fault this time though. The final run of the skeleton is coming up. Britain in with a good chance in this one.

Curling has been enjoyable but the ice hockey and speed skating has been fantastic entertainment.

I’ve been watching loads of the Winter Olympics for the first time. I have to say I’ve become hooked on it. I found the whole carry on with the ski jump and the wind to be a bit tedious though.

Britain up and running in the medal table. Looking good for at least one medal in the women’s skeleton bob as well. I’ve been absolutely hooked on all this years events, especially the curling.

Question.
In the figure skating and ice dancing, are the couples allowed to be same-sex?
Edit.... too slow, Hibs.net. They're not .Last edited by CropleyWasGod; 16-02-2018 at 07:16 PM.

I feel sorry for Christie. World champion in a sport Scotland has little heritage with and still in contention for an Olympic medal.
Yet representing her country on the biggest stage she is being subjected to some pretty grim abuse on social media, primarily from middle aged men who look as though their biggest achievement is 'earning' a £200 fee for a Jeremy Kyle appearance. 'I wish my wife went down as easy as you you fat loser ****' was one of the tamer reactions I can recallPM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

I laugh everytime the curlers are referred to as athletes, so the news that one has been suspected of doping has raised levels of amusement.
