Not sure if Patty Mills & Cate Campbell are the most worthy choices
Mills - zero medals, Campbell - zero individual golds, best known for massive choke job in Rio
It’s not about the medals. It’s about the spirit they represent their country with, both those people have bleed for their country. Excellent choices. No one complained when it was Andrew Gaze and he never won a medal either.

same as Joe Ingles
I’d prefer Cate Campbell (no golds) over Stephanie Rice (gold\s).

Did Joe Ingles look miffed that Patty got it?
Oh I get it now, you saw the black fella get the nod and you think it’s woke tokenism. He earned it.

Edit: Andrew Hoy, yes he is and he was flag bearer in Atlanta

As someone who pretty much never watchers basketball except watching the boomers at the Olympics why isn’t Simmons playing?
Isn’t he supposed to be some awesome NBA player?

He’s a self absorbed flog who only listens to the (poor) advice of a select group around him
He ain’t Patty Mills, that’s for sure.
