Tenth out of 79?

Well done, Aussies!

Once again, we have 'punched well above our weight'.

And yet we have all these Dismal Jimmies bemoaning
the 'fact' that we've somehow 'failed'.

Where do they get that idea?

Tenth spot is excellent. Twentieth would have been excellent. Who cares, as long as the athletes do their best and enjoy the experience.

When the Australian taxpayer is funding them to the highest degree, enjoying the experience shouldnt be high on the agenda.

If they awarded medals to idle boasting and stupid predictions before the start of the games every Aussie swimmer, the Opals, and a few other "I am the greatest" idiots on our team would have gold medals. Let's hope our next team goes away with the attitude of "I will do my best".

I think New Zealand now officially won 6 gold.

The woman who won gold in shot put tested positive to drugs. Her gold medal was awarded yesterday to the Kiwi girl who won silver.

The Kiwis did well on far less money than us.
