If you want to go quickly, go alone.

If you want to go far, go together.

I disgaree. Bogut has been huge for Australian basketball.


He can play, as can Cambage. She's been huge for Australian basketball, as well.
But we're talking about off-court, aren't we?

I have, I'm not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing with me, however.

Honestly I know nothing and have heard little about the 2 basketballers in an off field capacity which makes me think they can't be that bad, unlike the Bonehead I mentioned

IF (And a big IF) Australia made the final and beat the USA there is no doubt it would eclipse Perkins, Armstrong, Freeman and Australia's 4 x 100m Freestyle team in Sydney as Australia's greatest ever gold medal. Where would it rate as Australian Sports greatest ever victory?
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

The golf commentary is horrible.
They got compatriot and competitor mixed up
Matty Wade is a star and deserves more respect from the forum family!

I heard an interesting stat this morning which probably needs to be verified as it came from Roo on MMM.

He said Bolt has 9 of the fastest 30 100m times in history which include the top 3. Of the 21 other times posted, EVERY other athlete tested positive for PEDs.

Either Bolt is superhuman or he has been assisted. I like to think he is clean and really hope he is!!!

Every other looked assisted...Bolt at least looks natural.

Gold in the modern pentathlon to Chloe Esposito. Pity the IOC didn't make the events a little more modern!

Go Boomers!

Loved the way the whole team was singing the National Anthem. Bogut leading the charge.
