Jamaica way better than Australia and they win medals in real Olympic sports (like Italy)
not scraps sports that no one watches

nobody around the world is impressed by Australia at the Olympics because no one sees you win anything

the whole world is watching the 100m

This topic is about the Olympics, every Australian should be proud of how we are doing including you.

If you don't like it you can live somewhere else and renounce your Australian citizenship.

Great effort last night by Peter Bol to come 4th, well done son.

Also great to see the Canadian Andre De Grasse last night to claim the mens 200m final, kept 3 other American's at bay
