That looks like one of the most technical OUBC Blue Boats I have seen. Best front end. It should be a cracking technical race this year.

What a brilliant race. Pure adrenaline. Glad I didn't know about the DQ at the restart. Can't wait for the event proper. Many thanks to Grace, Angus and Martin for fantastic commentary! Great job. Super film quality, too. Many thanks to the production team.

I didn't know rowing was a contact sport. Learned something new!

As a cox and a rower, I will say that in the worst situations, these coxes defended their crews. At the end of the day, that earned trust and absolute backing means as much as winning

@gordonpetersmith 5 месяцев назад

I suppose it is good practice for the Boat Race but just ridiculous. Its a huge river, move a few feet and you lose nothing in terms of the tide / current. It is mainly coxes' egos i'm afraid. the 2nd piece was hilarious, Oxford cox approached it like a bumps race because of Leander's behaviour in first piece! I speak as an ex cox too.

@CK29Foo 5 месяцев назад

Clearly not as a tideway cox. You stand to lose/gain a huge amount from your position relative to the stream and to the other crew. If the coxes aren't trying every trick in the bag to gain their crew an advantage/screw the other crew up, then they might as well not be there. The Leander cox did a brilliant job in both pieces in my opinion. Kept his crew in the race and forced Oxford to make mistakes

@@CK29Foo Absolute rubbish. If you coxed like this in any tinpot Tideway regatta you'd get DQd, and rightly so. Sure enough, the 'brilliant' Leander cox, far from 'keeping his crew in the race' actually got them knocked out.

Typical Oxford. No respect for other crews.

An odd comment, given Leander were disqualified.
