If they took out that rock instead of freezing to it and missing, the game is over. Can't get two with only one rock. Surprised Canada made that decision.

It was really well guarded 100%. can't hit it.

Can't say they're not trying, just screaming out there.

Yeah I didn't hate the call. Homan needs to be able to make a better shot there.

She likely will have a harder shot to win.

Homan had a chance to win it on back to back ends. Just couldn't do it.

Damn.

Absolutely heartbreaking.

Homan just couldn't come up clutch when it mattered most

Homan's always struggled on draws.

Italy played ok, they could have punished Canada more.

damn...

Italy was a damn good team... losing to the Aussies hurt a lot.

that was tough to lose by a millimeter

I am not a curling expert; i don't put that on Homan (the one in the eighth I did as it didn't have enough weight to get past the guard)...Morris' sweeping could have also made this last draw go a mm long too...

Feel bad for Homan but that was two shots she didn't make. Damn.

Morris is judging weight is he not. FFS they blew that weight call.

They are so mad at themselves right now.

Canada off to a very, very rough start to the Olympics.

Hopefully McMorris, Toutant and Parrot can pull off some magic tonight

They didn't seem to have any chemistry together this entire tournament. Seemed like they debated every shot and Mark always just ended with sure and they went with it.

Christ. Italy was down two with two shots left and nothing in the rings in 8. Their guy made a perfect draw behind cover, a really tough shot. Then Homan screwed the pooch on her draw.

And then inexplicably they blow the weight call in 9.

Morris had some tough moments, but man... Homan's Olympic track record is rough.

Two chances to win it and couldn't. Also led the Women's Curling Team to a very disappointing 6th place finish in the 2018 Olympics.
