In fact there's a pretty easy puff piece there for somebody to write/film: Georgia Jones is on the England women's team, and both her brother and fiance (I think. Definitely her 'significant other') are on the men's team.

There's a bit still left in those old legs. Mike could always retire at the end of season having the England's captaincy under his belt, before his legs give way... |

I couldn't find the score. How did it end? Wasn't told score just we lost and that it 'wasn't Canada's starting 5' Which seems strange as I'm sure they would need game time also unless other games arranged too |

I've listened to an interview with Mike Tuck on how grateful he was on being selected. He goes on to talk about expectations, which team will do what etc etc and he mentions the Canada team. I can't remember exactly how the interview goes but the Canada team is a young one I think; U23 or something like that with a uni coach, a good one with a excellant record...
It maybe because of this that the Canada team didn't have their 'starting 5s'.
It would be worth trying to find Tuck's interview. I'm sure it would be somewhere under #England
I think he does predict Austrialia, New Zealand and Canada to be the main threats for the medals. So Canada are going to be there or there abouts even with a uni coach and ones to aim for.

Just tweeted England basketball, asking for the scores. They just "liked" my tweet. Pissing me off! Once again,they can't even do the simple things right!

I've been watching the commonwealth games on BBC for a bit this morning
There's so much going on at so many venues I'm not expecting to see more than a couple of quarters of the basketball at most
Plus I think it clashes with the gymnastics which is being shown on red button. So it won't be on there.

Tbf with so many sports happening at same time there's no chance of bbc TV viewers being subjected to 90 mins of continuos basketball
With all the sports they are showing 15 mins max at a time and flitting between them

Suppose we will have to watch hours of Gymnastics, dont get me wrong what these guys do is amazing. We should give it a try IRF  |

So will Scotland's shallow squad let them down the longer the game goes?
or can they keep this up?
