Nae mucking about here, we’re getting ready for race two of the night already.

Australia look frighteningly good early-on.

They are seeking a first gold medal in 16 years and Kate McDonald and Georgia Godwin have started like they mean business on uneven bars and beam, both carding 12.900 on the latter.

Straight into the second race of the night now, it's women's 100m backstroke semi-finals...

An Aussie 1-2-3, as easy as it gets.

A band of yellow jerseys across from us are awfully pleased.

A good start to the night for those down under…

It's only a couple of weeks since I watched Australia cruise to victory in the T20 World Cup without breaking sweat. Now an Aussie 1-2-3 here to deny the other five in the race, all of whom were home nations swimmers.

Typical.

The bell sounds and Sam Short of Australia is well clear and is looking good for gold.

England's James Guy is still in the silver medal position but it is tight.

Huge cheer for Sean McCann as he emerges for this men's 400m freestyle final. His parents, Kate and Gerry, are back in the stands to watch.

Sam Short leads the way after the first 100m with England's James Guy just behind him.

Still a long way to go in this one...

The athletes are out for the first final of the night. It's the men's 400m freestyle.

Australia's Sam Short might be the favourite but Northern Ireland's Daniel Wiffen will have something to say about that.

And they're off!

Scotsman Sean McCann the first out in lane eight for the men's 400m freestyle final.

He's done incredibly well to get here, and that's recognised by a big cheer from the home crowd.

England head for the uneven bars next, along with South Africa, who will compete first, but Australia and Canada have already set a blistering pace on that apparatus.

Those two head for the balance beam.

Wales are bang in this medal chase with that 153.400, you know.

Olympic champion Daniel Wiffen goes in search of his first Commonwealth Games gold in the opening race of the night at the Tollcross Swimming Centre.

The Northern Ireland swimmer, who won Olympic gold in the 800m freestyle in Paris two years ago, comfortably qualified for the men's 400m freestyle final earlier on day two in Glasgow.

Wiffen qualified in three minutes 47.01 seconds, third fastest overall behind Australia's Sam Short (3:46.23) and Benjamin Goedemans (3:46.47).

The 25-year-old will be joined in tonight's final (19:07 BST) by Olympic relay gold medallist Jack McMillan, who advanced in 3:48.65, and England's James Guy, who, while better known for his exploits in the shorter distances, won bronze medallist in this event in Glasgow in 2014.

"I was a bit nervous. I haven't had the greatest year so I didn't know what shape I'd be in," Wiffen told BBC Sport NI.

"To come out with that and make the final comfortably, I'm pretty happy."

Perched poolside for what is sure to be another tremendous night of swimming at Tollcross.

Not the same medal hopes - or expectations - as last night from a Scotland perspective, focus appears to be on an English fella who is seemingly quite decent at thrashing about the pool?

Adam Ramsay-Peaty going for another gold in the men's 100m breaststroke final is the biggie tonight.

Abi Martin, the lynchpin of the England team, will also vault twice.

13.550 for a fine first vault.

She seals her place in the final on Monday with a tidy second vault with a small hop back on landing.

13.600 overall - top of the standings at present.

Daniel Wiffen said heading into these Games that he is a medal "guarantee" for Team Northern Ireland, not a contender.

It's a big claim to make but one you can get away with if you've won Olympic, World and European gold since silver in the 2022 Commonwealth Games.

Those medals have all come in his favourite event of the 800m, but he has the chance win a first swimming medal for NI at these games in the 400m tonight.

Wiffen will come up against good friend and teammate Jack McMillan, who won Olympic gold with Team GB in in the men's 4 × 200 metre freestyle relay, after he also advanced to the final.

Well, this is something you don't see very often...

Namibia's Tryagain Morning Ndevelo has just been handed a walkover in the men's 60kg boxing because his opponent, Anthony Joseph of Trinidad and Tobago, missed his call time!

As the bell rung for the first round, Joseph was nowhere to be seen, and when he did belated appear, he was stopped from entering the ring because he was too late.

Fittingly, Ndevelo will be able to try again in the last 16 as he aims to win the Commonwealth title at his third Games.

No such luck for Joseph, though, due to some poor timekeeping from the boxer and his team.

Alia Leat goes third for England and nails a fine vault.

The 21-year-old trains at Heathrow Gymnastics Club and with a takeoff like that it feels very appropriate.

13.400 - that'll do nicely.

Shantae-Eve Amankwaah makes a solid start to the evening for England with her first vault.

12.700 to start the defending champions off.

Ruby Stacey is next... she'll vault twice to try and secure a place in the individual final.

She contributes 13.250 to the team total with her first vault and then adds 12.400 after a hop on landing her second.

13.025 overall, third on the day and will be enough for a place in the vault final, with Wales twins Abigail and Emily Roper also now confirmed in that final.
