It was only a little joke as Turkey are insanely good at wrestling and weightlifting!

i know bro..
but as you know.
we can be a little more sensitive (is that the word)
so please if you are making a joke to a turk. be a little bittle careful next time ok?

we are handiling lots of things here...
and sometimes we can react to a normal post in bluemoon ok?

as one of my best friends from asmrterdam said
*being a turk a full time job*

so.. ok make fun
sorry do it
but sometime i can react ok?

Can’t believe the Dutch have a convicted child rapist in their squad.

Dutchman Steven van de Velde, who was sentenced to four years in prison for the rape of a 12-year-old British girl, is set to compete in the Paris Olympics.

I really can’t get my head around this. Is that sort of thing normal in the Netherlands?

What a bizarre decision.

Fiji were lucky there, Ireland one lapse of concentration from doing them.

True, but there’s only about 12 of them and they’ve never lost a match in the Olympics!

Watched them last night, they were immense. Just missed their quarter-final against Ireland but looks like they're on course to defend their title.

I hope not, my Sister and Brother In Law, are going over for 4 days for the Athletics, and are bringing me some duty free's back.

Just spoke to my City supporting mate in Paignton, he is going tomorrow with his family as his 16 year old daughter is part of the GB Gymnastics team. To say he is gushing with pride is an understatement and I really really don't blame him.

Brilliant mate, hope she does herself proud.
