mate, they only beat france by 3

we have a real shot at a medal

I know! Tony Parker wasn't even playing either. I'd be keen if in the off season Australia played games at home. I love the NBA, but seeing the Aussies play together is just something else. Seeing guys like Delly and Mills become first options is really cool. I wish they'd sold the Olympic jerseys here. I'd be all over a Jingles one haha

I'm glad i won't have to hear about kitty chiller anymore
Gold medal for underwhelming leadership, only thing she sorted was the shttiers before the games. Started badly with her engaging with those 2 toss pot tennis players then got worse, her speech when announcing Anna mears as the flag carrier was laughable so many me's and I's.

Not to mention turning up at their Olympic accommodation, turning on every tap and shower faucet in the block of units simultaneously and then acting with shock and horror that the plumbing couldn't handle it.

It was probably substandard but they wanted to make it fail so they could create a scene and demand better.

i reckon the Tokyo olympics will blow they rest away, The venues are nearly already built and the main stadium will be finished a year before the start of the games.

Yep the Japanese will be bang on, you can count on that. Expect to see venues packed as well.

Japan do everything a thousand times better than any other country in the world. When I went there around 10 years ago I was amazed at how well they did things. Simple things that we find it so hard to get right here they do with consumate ease.

I reckon it will easily rival Sydney as the "best Olympics ever!"
