Thanks m8, a bit embarrassing the Brits beat us by one medal overall, they're just not sporting you know ;) It couldn't be our fault so I guess we'll have to blame the American's with that Phelps guy in the pool :rolleyes:
 
I thought the ranked average at the following link was interesting in terms of showing what country in the world has the best atheletes independent of their population:

Sure enough, Australia and Britain both beat out Canada, the United States AND China! But even they are no match for the olympic powerhouses in the Caribbean.

Hey Rob, the Aussie journos were no doubt just referring to whipping ENGLAND, which we did - real good ;) :D

Don't forget that you guys cheat and combine the medals of four countries; England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, it's just not fair :eek:

Yeah, next Olympics we are competing as ANZAC and adding New Zealand's medals to ours :D
 
I think it's about time toy and model soldiers became an olympic sport. It would be a relief from all the jumping, running, sailing and swimming that's been rammed down our throats over the past few weeks.

How about synchronized collecting?
 
Or even the 100 metres sprint for the last pot of red paint in the shop?
