I’m still raging about Kyle missing the 100m

no idea how the rest of the cycling track events are rated for Australia but lots more to come in that discipline

edit: and here are some we are in the semis etc for






Minjee ended up tied 7th, so well amongst it

What a result overnight, best games ever. Will be hard to knock us out of 3rd now.

(I’m sure there being no Russia is not hurting.)

Canoeing we are a chance

Other medal opportunities - water polo woman into the semis, men’s sprint in cycling, woman’s volleyball into a semi and the Opals have made the semis

Seeing Palmer’s competitors genuinely happy for him winning gold gives this old cynical bastard a warm fuzzy feeling this morning.

I love sport.

Growing up I remember everyone going nuts about pulling 8 golds in Atlanta.

Getting 20 would be unthinkable back then

Having said that if we didn’t host 2000 and pump all that money into the Olympic programs here we wouldn’t be talking about 20 golds. We are still seeing the benefits of hosting 24 years later.
