:00:47. > :00:52.Hello and welcome back to Melbourne for round two of Nitro Athletics,
:00:53. > :00:56.the bold new team event headlined by Usain Bolt and designed to bring a
:00:57. > :01:00.whole new audience to the sport, which last week saw the start of
:01:01. > :01:02.something a bit different. I knew Australia would come out and support
:01:03. > :01:08.and I'm happy everybody is here and I'm excited to get started. Wow, the
:01:09. > :01:21.best start possible in the Nitro series. She has taken off. What a
:01:22. > :01:35.team and what a run. Australia upstaged the Bald All-Stars.
:01:36. > :01:48.That is what Nitro is all about. Usain Bolt is of! It was awesome,
:01:49. > :01:55.the crowd was great. Thank you, Australia. Usain Bolt's All-Stars
:01:56. > :02:00.recovered from a slow start to finish ahead of Australia. The young
:02:01. > :02:05.English team did not fare so welcome of suffering an injury to Bianca
:02:06. > :02:09.Williams. Second place in the mixed death and medley relay proved to be
:02:10. > :02:12.their best result but with points on offer in another 12 event there was
:02:13. > :02:18.plenty to play for. A reminder of how it works. Six teams of 12 female
:02:19. > :02:20.and 12 male athletes go head-to-head over three days of competition.
:02:21. > :02:28.Traditional disciplines fit alongside more innovative events.
:02:29. > :02:31.Points are awarded according to position with the emphasis on team
:02:32. > :02:37.rather than individual performances. Bonus points are available in some
:02:38. > :02:41.field events and each team can use a power play to double their points in
:02:42. > :02:45.one nominated event. Places for the first two rounds go on to determine
:02:46. > :02:52.seedings and lame tours in the grand final. Let us know what you thought
:02:53. > :02:55.of it so far -- lane draws. But let's get over to the Australian
:02:56. > :02:58.because to describe the action and Rob Clancy to draw the Li talk you
:02:59. > :03:18.through There are individual men's and
:03:19. > :03:27.women's 100 metres races, 110 hurdles for the men, dew seeded para
:03:28. > :03:36.events and finally a mixed 4x100 relay, once again involving the
:03:37. > :03:40.indomitable Usain Bolt. This is the mixed 4x400 metres relay and
:03:41. > :03:46.Australia is using its power play. I am here with 400-metre legend
:03:47. > :03:51.Christine Ohuruogu, and you're nervous. For yourself or the team?
:03:52. > :03:55.It's weird because we have had a great build-up but we all agreed,
:03:56. > :03:57.It's weird because we have had a the 400 metre lot that there is
:03:58. > :04:04.nothing fun about it! No matter what the event, this event can make grown
:04:05. > :04:09.adults cry! I am a bit nervous but it's fun. You know the pain is
:04:10. > :04:13.coming! And what about Nitro as a whole, are you loving the team
:04:14. > :04:18.environment? It's fantastic, we had a great time, we have been dancing
:04:19. > :04:21.along and it is great to invite people into our world. People don't
:04:22. > :04:26.get the chance to see this side of us so it's a great idea. What more
:04:27. > :04:34.could you ask for? Time for you to get your game face on! Here we go.
:04:35. > :04:39.The second night of Nitro is underway and Luke Stevens goes out
:04:40. > :04:44.hard. This be strange to watch because three men and three women so
:04:45. > :04:57.expect the bolt All-Stars to be at the back because Marinakou is a
:04:58. > :05:03.long-distance runner. Cochrane of New Zealand is third supplement our
:05:04. > :05:08.one, two, three you would expect Stevens do have a lead. I think it
:05:09. > :05:12.helps Australia being drawn on the outside lane. He was able to use his
:05:13. > :05:18.speed to get the fund. But Oseto is running a great leg. -- to the
:05:19. > :05:25.front. A great performance and a bit of a surprise. Ishizuka gets it now
:05:26. > :05:34.and it is Rubie for Australia. Ohuruogu goes now. It is Japan,
:05:35. > :05:39.Australia, the All-Stars are a long way back but they come home with a
:05:40. > :05:44.strong runner. In the back straight, no surprise that New Zealand go
:05:45. > :05:52.past. This is Tom Moulai who is just 18 and he is leading by six or seven
:05:53. > :05:56.metres from Anneliese Rubie who was in the Olympics in the 4x400 final
:05:57. > :06:06.for Australia. She is a fine runner and she is getting a gap on Ishizuka
:06:07. > :06:10.in third place. It will be a strange feeling for Rubie having a boy
:06:11. > :06:15.flying past but she has held her form really well and she is passing
:06:16. > :06:22.it over to Alex Hartmann at speed. The change was put a stop change.
:06:23. > :06:30.Ohuruogu gives the bat over. Katherine Camp on the back straight,
:06:31. > :06:38.she was 25 on Monday. Alex Hartmann has gone straight past her on the
:06:39. > :06:41.back straight. Horii of Japan is in third place, a very good 400 metres
:06:42. > :06:46.man and the All-Stars are still long way back but making up some ground.
:06:47. > :06:53.Morgan Mitchell will go last for Australia but they have a very good
:06:54. > :06:57.lead. Horii are trying to run down apartment but Japan has a female
:06:58. > :07:00.athlete to go last, so does New Zealand.
:07:01. > :07:08.They get to Morgan Mitchell and Morgan is away. Clement is about to
:07:09. > :07:13.get it for the All-Stars but surely they are too far back. Australia
:07:14. > :07:19.with a power play stemming them in the face and they are leading in the
:07:20. > :07:22.back straight. Australia had definitely got the All-Stars under
:07:23. > :07:29.control because Clement is only just having the bat on right now. Morgan
:07:30. > :07:33.looks clear. The problem is the English team, Theo Campbell is
:07:34. > :07:39.finishing strongly. Morgan is going to have a hold her form. Theo
:07:40. > :07:49.Campbell is adopting the flight. She is lifting, they are cheering her
:07:50. > :07:55.home. Keep going, Campbell is going to get her! England have got up and
:07:56. > :08:02.come from nowhere. Over the line they go. Japan were third and China
:08:03. > :08:07.were forth. So much fun. New Zealand fifth and then the All-Stars. They
:08:08. > :08:11.are not good at the medley relay but don't worry. How good was that? What
:08:12. > :08:19.an amazing finish is, did you think you could get her? I knew it was a
:08:20. > :08:23.done deal, the team did a good job! We planned it and we knew it was
:08:24. > :08:32.going to happen that way! We were a bit behind, but a good team effort.
:08:33. > :08:42.And did you even lower case? I did! It is all fun! -- blow her a kiss. A
:08:43. > :08:46.great start, well done. England takes the opening victory with a
:08:47. > :08:50.thrilling finish in the mixed 4x400 relay but Australia take the lead in
:08:51. > :08:55.the points standings after using their power play. Next up is the
:08:56. > :09:02.60-metre sprint, men first and then women. The 60-metre sprint, Michael
:09:03. > :09:12.Frater is one of the big stars and he will go for the bolt All-Stars --
:09:13. > :09:23.bowled All-Stars. Fighter got a good start, Gao Ze is right up there and
:09:24. > :09:29.a great dip! Confidence Lawson, this was close, England have come with a
:09:30. > :09:36.rush. China and Jamaica and Japan. It changed in the last ten metres
:09:37. > :09:43.and this is desperately close. Gashi had a better forward lean -- Gao Ze.
:09:44. > :09:51.The English have started well. They have but Gao Ze has got it for
:09:52. > :10:05.China. This is the women 60 metres. Branding is properly favourite. --
:10:06. > :10:08.Prandini. Erin McBride is up para athlete. She has to run tonight
:10:09. > :10:15.because England have run out of runners will stop Prandini made a
:10:16. > :10:22.good start. She is clearly away. It is the All-Stars over China, Japan,
:10:23. > :10:28.New Zealand, Australia and Erin McBride getting 40 points by going
:10:29. > :10:32.to the line. Jenna Prandini's class carried her through. It is
:10:33. > :10:38.sensational having you supporting the event, what does it mean to you
:10:39. > :10:42.and how can it improve? It is a really important staging post for
:10:43. > :10:45.athletics, we have got to challenge ourselves. We have not done enough
:10:46. > :10:50.in past years to attract young people into the sport and we have
:10:51. > :10:55.begun to pay a high price for that. What I love about this is that it is
:10:56. > :10:58.fun and intimate, the athletes are interacting with the crowd,
:10:59. > :11:01.particularly the young people. And we have challenged ourselves to do
:11:02. > :11:04.something different. I challenged everybody and I'm so pleased that
:11:05. > :11:09.Australia took it up and you do these things really well and thank
:11:10. > :11:16.you. Next up it is the women's pole vault. This is Aoshima from the
:11:17. > :11:26.national champion at four metres and a big clearance. They have three set
:11:27. > :11:31.heights, 3.70, 3.80, and four metres. That was four metres which
:11:32. > :11:37.is the third height in the order. This is Nina Kennedy for the
:11:38. > :11:42.All-Stars. Just 19 years of age and Usain is on the sidelines watching
:11:43. > :11:45.and she went clear at four metres. Those were the two athlete to go
:11:46. > :11:53.clear at four metres and then they can pick their own height. This is
:11:54. > :12:00.Aoshima, the 26-year-old national champion and she had selected 4.10
:12:01. > :12:12.metres. Here she goes in a final attempt. Up, up and over! The rising
:12:13. > :12:16.sun rises up and goes clear! That a great jump and it puts Nina Kennedy
:12:17. > :12:24.under the pump, pushing her back into second place as things stand.
:12:25. > :12:29.Nina Kennedy, former Acrobat, former world junior record holder, just 19
:12:30. > :12:34.years of age. This is to tie for first place. She needs to go clear.
:12:35. > :12:42.Training partner of Liz Parnov who is still to come. Right now she is
:12:43. > :12:52.the energy Anna Kennedy is clear! That is a big clearance. Should she
:12:53. > :12:59.have gone for 4.20 metres? I reckoned she had it in her and she
:13:00. > :13:02.had been too conservative. The big man Usain Bolt said to be
:13:03. > :13:07.conservative and I don't think that is her style. Come on, you say, you
:13:08. > :13:12.need to fill your charges with joy and excitement! Look at that
:13:13. > :13:19.celebration. That is a great jump. Nina Kennedy goes clear at 4.10
:13:20. > :13:25.metres. She shouldn't have listened to Usain! Next up is Abigail Roberts
:13:26. > :13:32.from England, this is at four metres having cleared 3.85 but she will
:13:33. > :13:39.have to settle with that, the Sheffield competitor.
:13:40. > :13:44.Australia can share the points here if Liz Parnov can go clear at 4.10
:13:45. > :14:01.metres. In she comes... Up she goes but no!
:14:02. > :14:06.Wow, that is problematic for the Australian team but good news for
:14:07. > :14:18.the bold All-Stars who share the points with Japan. Are you with the
:14:19. > :14:22.big man? I am with Usain Bolt and Nina Kennedy. What have you got to
:14:23. > :14:27.say? I'm very proud, she came through. I was never worried! Can
:14:28. > :14:33.you confirm you told her to take the conservative route and jump four
:14:34. > :14:39.metres ten? We have to be smart! It is all about winning, as long as we
:14:40. > :14:41.get the win. And we've got it. Are you happy you get the captain happy?
:14:42. > :14:53.I am! Good points for the All-Stars. The bolt All-Stars and Japan are
:14:54. > :15:01.joint winners of the women's pole vault. That result is enough to lift
:15:02. > :15:02.Japan into third overall, ten points behind China. Australia still lead
:15:03. > :15:13.the field. A third of the way through this
:15:14. > :15:26.event, a three minute challenge for the men and then the women. Bolt
:15:27. > :15:37.All-Stars lead. This looks to be pretty quick to me. This does look
:15:38. > :15:43.like a genuine 800 metres race. Ramsden is a 6-foot four athlete, he
:15:44. > :15:47.has got that long, leggy stride. He just knows the others have really
:15:48. > :15:54.good leg speeds. He has stretched them out. Rimmer will not be liking
:15:55. > :16:02.this pace. He will suffer a little bit of the backend. Are you happy
:16:03. > :16:12.with where Luke is? Good work, Luke! I think he
:16:13. > :16:17.stretched early. I reckon Ramsden is trying to run him off his feet so he
:16:18. > :16:29.cannot kick. Buddy can't do that forever. Ramsden holds Matthews for
:16:30. > :16:38.the moment. You can see the English team jeering -- cheering Rimmer on.
:16:39. > :16:49.He has got to go. He goes. He moves alongside Ramsden. This has been
:16:50. > :16:50.great running. This is tough, they get there and Ramsden just holds off
:16:51. > :17:10.Matthews. Because of the 25-metre gap with
:17:11. > :17:17.macro --s that's not because of the 25-metre gaps, the women come up.
:17:18. > :17:23.She is a terrific relay runner. She made the African Championships last
:17:24. > :17:33.year. You've got 200 metres! Let's go!
:17:34. > :17:39.Let's go! Linden stretches it to a few metres. You feel she might be
:17:40. > :17:49.the one. One last throw on the dice. We know England can come with a run.
:17:50. > :18:07.Ten seconds, nine, eight... Australia are going to do it again.
:18:08. > :18:14.Linden Hall. Just a great race. It is just brilliant. The host nation
:18:15. > :18:26.takes out a thrilling three-minute distance challenge ahead of England
:18:27. > :18:33.and Bolt All-Stars. Up next is the mixed two by 300 m relay.
:18:34. > :18:45.Australia had a great result here on the opening night. Mitchell and
:18:46. > :18:55.Stephen Sabac up again. -- Stevens are up again.
:18:56. > :19:12.Has Stevens got one more big run in him? Taniguchi is 18 years old, the
:19:13. > :19:17.Japanese runner. Stevens has to hang on. Williams quickly goes up and
:19:18. > :19:25.take skill. Stevens accelerates. He is covering more ground. The Bolt
:19:26. > :19:31.All-Stars added again. Stephen gives it to Morgan Mitchell. Margreitter
:19:32. > :19:41.Dolly and Morgan Mitchell stretch away. -- .ca. She has gone hard and
:19:42. > :19:53.early. Mitchell will be strong in the last 50. She ran in the relay
:19:54. > :19:57.but was a reserve in Rio. England and Australia. Exactly as it was in
:19:58. > :20:06.the first race tonight. Morgan Mitchell is going to win again! What
:20:07. > :20:12.a performer. New Zealand finished third, then Japan.
:20:13. > :20:15.A long gap to the Bolt All-Stars. What a fantastic finish. You just
:20:16. > :20:24.set redemption. It must feel pretty good? You have no idea. I was pretty
:20:25. > :20:30.gutted earlier. I wanted to come home hard. One more for a stroller,
:20:31. > :20:35.let's keep going. Another Australian win in the two by three and a metre
:20:36. > :20:39.relay. Tonight you're a little bit more
:20:40. > :20:46.subdued, man. The first night you were out and about. What are you
:20:47. > :20:57.arguing about? I was over there with my pole vaulter. You look serious! I
:20:58. > :21:04.can't be happy when I'm losing! You have to believe in your team. I know
:21:05. > :21:09.you don't. We are doing the maths. It's not really adding up. We are
:21:10. > :21:13.taking our time. You can't talk too much if you're not sure you are
:21:14. > :21:24.going to win. Now the women's long jump.
:21:25. > :21:28.This is the 24-year-old from China. Third in the national championships.
:21:29. > :21:42.A very good jumper. Around the 6.30 mark. Yes, 6.30 one. -- 6.3 one.
:21:43. > :21:51.Quite tricky conditions. Here is my favourite, Kelsey Berryman. Close to
:21:52. > :21:54.her personal best. 5.99 in their opening job. She has more speed on
:21:55. > :22:02.the runway than a lot of her competitors. This is big. That looks
:22:03. > :22:09.close to the 6.2 three. 6.29, a lifetime best.
:22:10. > :22:14.The result keeps Australia in the lead from China are at the head of a
:22:15. > :22:22.title chasing pack. Coming up next, the elimination
:22:23. > :22:26.mile. A fast and frenetic four laps of the track were the pressure is on
:22:27. > :22:32.every step of the way. Keep your eye on the back of the pack as well as
:22:33. > :22:40.the front. We lose a runner every lap. If you are in last place at the
:22:41. > :22:46.end of a lap, your race is over. Athletes will be eliminated after
:22:47. > :22:52.laps one, two and three. And then the focus shifts to the final lap.
:22:53. > :22:54.The remaining three athlete head to head, with the first across the line
:22:55. > :23:06.taking 100 points. So the elimination mile. If you're
:23:07. > :23:11.watching on Saturday night, you will know all about it. One unlucky
:23:12. > :23:15.runner, the one at the back, drops out after the first lap, the same
:23:16. > :23:32.for the second and third, until we get down to three. The top three
:23:33. > :23:33.battle it out for 100 points. Or Keita is an 800-metre runner from
:23:34. > :23:47.Japan. -- Akita. Heidi See will want to make sure she
:23:48. > :23:51.is in the front. She has not got raped -- race fitness in her legs.
:23:52. > :23:56.You just don't want to be at the back. She is in a great position.
:23:57. > :24:04.She has fast athletes behind her. We can see the battle. The Bolt
:24:05. > :24:17.All-Stars, do they drop out? I think they will. No, they won't! I think
:24:18. > :24:29.Akita is the one to go. I think she actually got past Akita. There you
:24:30. > :24:34.go. They say Japan is eliminated on the scoreboard. The thing is, she
:24:35. > :24:39.was never going to get back onto that pathway. She made a fatal
:24:40. > :24:44.error. We haven't seen anything like this before. They she is on the
:24:45. > :24:53.bottom left-hand corner. She looks very upset. Incredible. She kept
:24:54. > :25:07.running. With her strength, she probably would have got stronger.
:25:08. > :25:11.These four will survive this lap. Are you pretty hot -- happy with
:25:12. > :25:16.Heidi Sofer? Yes. She didn't have to worry too much on that lap. She
:25:17. > :25:19.doesn't want to lose touch at the front it is at the end of the day it
:25:20. > :25:25.is the first person who crosses the line at the end. She is doing really
:25:26. > :25:31.well. She is in your group. How is she training? I think she is the
:25:32. > :25:38.best person in this event tonight. She is fit, strong and she has
:25:39. > :25:47.natural speed. Steve, let's go to Nathan. She has just rejoined the
:25:48. > :25:53.race after missing that lap. That's not legal, is it? No. She should
:25:54. > :25:58.have waited for the decision of the judges. She thought it was her who
:25:59. > :26:03.had been eliminated but it was Japan. We have an official at the
:26:04. > :26:11.100 metres to take you off the track if you are unsure. Nathan, they have
:26:12. > :26:17.to get Bosque off the track because it will be chaos if they don't. She
:26:18. > :26:24.has to go. This will completely change everything here. She
:26:25. > :26:34.shouldn't be there. Thomas should survive. What should happen here,
:26:35. > :26:46.Thomas, Heidi See should be left to go. Heidi See leads. Busk has been
:26:47. > :26:56.eliminated. A great story for a Heidi See. For me, the Bolt
:26:57. > :27:02.All-Stars will only get 50 points. It is hard to get your head around
:27:03. > :27:12.it! It says that Heidi See is in great shape, which is fantastic for
:27:13. > :27:16.Australian athletics. This is great. Look how beautiful she looks. She is
:27:17. > :27:20.getting stronger as the laps come on. She will get going in the final
:27:21. > :27:33.straight. This has been a great performance. Yes, Heidi! Let's go!
:27:34. > :27:45.All the way. Heidi See coming through. She wins easily. Second
:27:46. > :27:49.placing will be Thomas of Great Britain. And third will be the
:27:50. > :28:03.Zealander. The microphone has been dropped by
:28:04. > :28:12.the big guy. I looked at the screen and I was
:28:13. > :28:16.like, or, God! Morgan Mitchell starring. She has been outstanding.
:28:17. > :28:25.Now getting into the swing of it, the fun of it, as we come to the 100
:28:26. > :28:31.metres from men and women. Jack Hale, the 18-year-old Australian,
:28:32. > :28:38.Jarrion Lawson, an outstanding American.
:28:39. > :28:49.J Cale got away pretty well. Lawson is slowest out. -- Jake Hale. Miller
:28:50. > :28:56.is going to get through! J Cale back in sixth. The Bolt All-Stars really
:28:57. > :29:02.struggling. Joseph Millar. What an effort. He looked great in the 150
:29:03. > :29:15.the other night. Look I relaxed he is. Riley Day closest to us. Look at
:29:16. > :29:21.this great crowd. Everybody waiting. Riley Day got a pretty good start.
:29:22. > :29:28.Morrison away. Day is having a good run. Morrison goes to the front. It
:29:29. > :29:36.is Morrison! Baguette 's second! At 16 years of age. -- day gets second.
:29:37. > :29:42.A great run by Morrison. Riley Day was awesome.
:29:43. > :29:47.Victories for New Zealand and the Bolt All-Stars in the 100 metres
:29:48. > :29:50.sprints. The Kiwi 's move into second place overall, just 40 points
:29:51. > :29:57.behind Australia, with England further back in third.
:29:58. > :30:04.This is the 110 hurdles, the power play for Japan and it is a cracking
:30:05. > :30:09.race. Gabriel Odujobi of England in the middle. This is such a line-up.
:30:10. > :30:24.Power play for Japan. Not the best out from Wilson.
:30:25. > :30:30.Merlino is a fair run. Wilson is struggling, Merlino getting back,
:30:31. > :30:40.Xie gets through from Odujobi and maybe Wilson and Henry. No huge
:30:41. > :30:48.surprise that Xie Wenjun has come through. What a great result for the
:30:49. > :30:54.bold All-Stars, Justin Merlino faded away as well -- bolt All-Stars.
:30:55. > :31:15.-- you can see the handicaps. O'Neill as the big start. Look how
:31:16. > :31:21.far back terrace and Wallace are, surely they cannot get to Will
:31:22. > :31:33.O'Neill. Reardon is taking some ground of him. O'Neill is hanging
:31:34. > :31:36.on. He beats Reardon and Ikeda. Perris and Wallace could not get
:31:37. > :31:44.there. Will O'Neill has done the double.
:31:45. > :31:53.The staggered distance is not so far, just out to 12 metres.
:31:54. > :32:02.Pardy from the outside and Isaac is next to her. McBride trying to come
:32:03. > :32:10.back on Ayanbeku. This is going to be close. Pardy has had a good first
:32:11. > :32:16.hundred. Grimaldi coming home hard and so is McBride. McBride and
:32:17. > :32:24.Grimaldi are coming at Herbert is hanging on. Half a metre in front
:32:25. > :32:32.and she didn't did but I think so. McBride did dip and it is close.
:32:33. > :32:43.Grimaldi cannot quite get there. McBride dips. And England have got
:32:44. > :32:51.it! McBride has been able to get her torso over the line in front of Ella
:32:52. > :32:56.Pardy. The javelin and this is Hamish Peacock, his second throw in
:32:57. > :33:02.the competition and he is leading with 76.30 metres from its first
:33:03. > :33:09.throw. He has let this one rip and a puff of dust and it was dead
:33:10. > :33:17.straight and that is 82.12 metres. That is a serious throw. They go for
:33:18. > :33:22.bonus point in the final round with accuracy but 82.12 is finals in the
:33:23. > :33:25.Olympics stuff. In the final round, that is the bonus distance which
:33:26. > :33:29.start at about 60 metres and it goes out in a V neck
:33:30. > :33:47.. That is in! It's in! That is the distance for Joseph Dunderdale. He
:33:48. > :33:53.got the 15 bonus points. Look at that, it is right in the narrowest
:33:54. > :34:01.spot. Very impressive. Liu from China, 75.02 so far. He was third in
:34:02. > :34:06.the national championships and he can launch it close to 70 metres.
:34:07. > :34:13.The crowd are hoping to see a target. I could scream and it is
:34:14. > :34:29.close and it's in! It is long and accurate! 76.55, that it is best
:34:30. > :34:33.throw so far and 15 bonus points. That is fantastic stuff. Another
:34:34. > :34:40.Australian victory with Hamish Peacock taking the javelin from Liu
:34:41. > :34:44.Qizhen. That strengthens the Australian lead with China in second
:34:45. > :34:52.and England and Japan sharing third place. But Bolt's All-Stars are yet
:34:53. > :34:54.to use their power play and with the 4x100 still could we could yet be in
:34:55. > :35:10.for a photo finish. The elimination mile for the men, it
:35:11. > :35:17.was chaotic in the Williams. So much is riding on the captain for
:35:18. > :35:23.Australia. -- in the women's. Cornish is 28 tomorrow, Weir is
:35:24. > :35:39.pretty experienced. Kipchirchir getting around gout and he will work
:35:40. > :35:44.up quickly -- around Gao. He is at the front on the inside, Gregson,
:35:45. > :35:49.and that was frustrating in Rio, we all wanted him to get out and get
:35:50. > :35:54.that free run and uses great kick. I think this sort of risk will suit
:35:55. > :36:01.him because he does have a vast kick at the back end. Kipchirchir has to
:36:02. > :36:06.be careful here. They will hang on, the All-Stars but it is tight and
:36:07. > :36:14.Weir is out. Ryan Gregson is leading. What's of tactics did Ryan
:36:15. > :36:20.have? It looks like he is front running. He is not normally a front
:36:21. > :36:24.runner but this is a different race of the elimination, and he will not
:36:25. > :36:30.give up the lead easy. He will not let the back runners catch him. Go
:36:31. > :36:35.on, Ryan! He will not give anyone too much of a chance. When we do our
:36:36. > :36:40.sons, I think if Ryan wins we cannot lose to the Bolt All-Stars tonight
:36:41. > :36:45.unless there is a disaster in the relay. We work it out, we have to
:36:46. > :36:55.state 120 points in front. So far it looks good. Safe here because it
:36:56. > :37:03.looks like Gareth Andrew is going to be off the back -- Gao Tongyou. Does
:37:04. > :37:12.he usually listen to you? I don't think he is listening now! Gregson
:37:13. > :37:20.is leading Kipchirchir, Cornish is in third place and then a long gap
:37:21. > :37:23.to Kawamura. You make a lot of sense here because in awake and he doesn't
:37:24. > :37:28.have to spend too much energy because he is pretty safe. And he
:37:29. > :37:34.told me to let him know how safe he is because he doesn't want to blow
:37:35. > :37:39.up. He has plenty of room. Plenty of room, you're safe! Keep this
:37:40. > :37:43.control! Get ready for the last lap! It looks like it is going to come
:37:44. > :37:47.down to the three at the front. I think the Japanese runner has fallen
:37:48. > :37:50.off the back. Cornish is interesting, he will be stoked to
:37:51. > :37:54.make it to the final lap because he has had a tough year with x-rays and
:37:55. > :38:01.sicknesses so he is happy to be racing but it is between Gregson and
:38:02. > :38:04.Kipchirchir who ran the three Nordtveit is earlier. Ryan is head
:38:05. > :38:16.and shoulders above the field -- the 300 metres earlier. He comes in with
:38:17. > :38:21.great confidence. And if I had Jen shouting at me, I would be running
:38:22. > :38:26.faster! If Australia can win it, I think they will win the whole night.
:38:27. > :38:30.Cornish will get the third place. This last 300 metres could determine
:38:31. > :38:42.if the Australian teams win. Let's go, Ryan! Your fine! The last 150!
:38:43. > :38:46.Let's go! And he does go, putting the foot down, look at this. The
:38:47. > :38:54.first Australian to make an Olympic 1500 metres men's final in 40 years
:38:55. > :38:58.in Rio and he is flying away and the Australians are going to get maximum
:38:59. > :39:04.points. How good is this? I've got to get to the finish line! You had
:39:05. > :39:12.better run quickly, young lady! The captain is flying and so is the
:39:13. > :39:21.Australian team! The co-captains are about to get together. What a run!
:39:22. > :39:25.Kipchirchir was second and Cornish was third. It has been a remarkable
:39:26. > :39:28.night from the Australian team and so many of the young athletes have
:39:29. > :39:37.been inspired by the veterans. Beautiful, lovely. Australia claims
:39:38. > :39:40.another win but will it be enough to hold off the Bolt All-Stars who will
:39:41. > :39:45.use their power play in the final event of the night and their
:39:46. > :39:50.favourite, the 4x100 metre relay, featuring the man himself, Usain
:39:51. > :39:55.Bolt. The main show is still to company will run the bend tonight.
:39:56. > :39:58.Nobody has ever run a bend like him, world record-holder in the 200
:39:59. > :40:06.metres as well as the 100 in those relays. It is all business for him.
:40:07. > :40:11.He is getting the tape to tell him where he needs to take off. Because
:40:12. > :40:16.we have females going into males and males going into females, those bits
:40:17. > :40:23.of tape are important. We are about to conclude now. Day got away on the
:40:24. > :40:28.outside and she has already had a spectacular start, branding is going
:40:29. > :40:33.quick in the middle. Prandini has probably had the best and she gives
:40:34. > :40:41.it to Powell. Look at Asafa Powell go, running down hail and also
:40:42. > :40:48.Zhang. They are waiting, the Aussies are in trouble! We might be
:40:49. > :40:55.disqualified! Bowled flying to Morrison who has to wait but he is
:40:56. > :40:59.now await, the All-Stars are awake. Jenneke get it, I'm holding my
:41:00. > :41:04.breath. China will be second, third will be England, Japan are in fourth
:41:05. > :41:08.place and then New Zealand and Australia have made a mess of it.
:41:09. > :41:15.Have we been disqualified? I'm not sure. We will have to wait and see.
:41:16. > :41:21.Do Australia get 40 points which is what we need to win? Jack Hale is
:41:22. > :41:29.about to pass the button to the Breeze Lapierre. He has no chance of
:41:30. > :41:36.getting it -- Fabrice Lapierre. They are well outside the changeover box.
:41:37. > :41:41.Not good. Back to you. Make, you have seen the replay, it is clear
:41:42. > :41:42.that Australia ran out of the box which means you are victors the
:41:43. > :41:51.night will Jess! Perseverance is the key! Push
:41:52. > :41:57.hard and anything is possible! I said earlier, anything is possible
:41:58. > :42:02.and we won. How do you always get it done, you were happy and then angry
:42:03. > :42:05.and you got the job done? We have a good team and they pushed on and
:42:06. > :42:12.tried their best and that is the key thing. You were quite confident they
:42:13. > :42:16.ran out-of-the-box? I could see the yellow line. I have been doing track
:42:17. > :42:19.and field for years, there Arter yellow lines, one at the start and
:42:20. > :42:25.one at the end and it was clearly outside. We can see it here. That's
:42:26. > :42:32.it out! It's over! Cancel Christmas! outside. We can see it here. That's
:42:33. > :42:40.That is Fabrice Lapierre and he was keen to run against you. That is why
:42:41. > :42:44.he went out to quick but I was too far ahead! I will get confirmation
:42:45. > :42:48.to make sure you get the overall victory. That means you have a huge
:42:49. > :42:52.lead going into Saturday night. We're winners, that's what we do, we
:42:53. > :43:00.always win! It's an all-star team! Well done tonight, you got it done.
:43:01. > :43:05.What a race and what a result. With the Bolt All-Stars taking the
:43:06. > :43:10.bigotry in sensational circumstances -- the victory.
:43:11. > :43:19.Thanks again to the post commentary team, let us know what you thought
:43:20. > :43:22.of Nitro Athletics. Join us again tomorrow on BBC Two for a highlight
