as long as former IOC vice president Dick Pound is handing out the medal I don't care who wins!
I think the Aussie swim team, due to historical performance, get a bit cocky tbh. Thats usually where most of our 'gold medals' come from & they've gone into the Olympics getting blown out of the water by swimmers from France, U.S. & China???
Dawn Fraser & Laurie Lawrence are in the midst of the biggest shock & awe campaign of their lives right now lol
Ah well...you win some, you lose some...
I did kinda have a fleeting pang of sympathy for Nick Darcy, an opportunity to slightly redeem himself....was trodden on, shat on & smashed up.
Its sad, that as a competitive athlete, he shall be forever remembered, not for his swimming ability, but for a drunken brawl that ruined some elses life.....& his own actually.
Time for fresh blood in the Oz swim team with a view to possibly recruit some chinese 16 year olds lol
P.S. the Olympics is worth waiting 4 years for, just to hear the name 'Dick Pound' imo
