Peter Norman
Saw last Sunday night on NITV a documentary called "Salute" about the 1968 Olympics 200 metres mens final where Australian Peter Norman claimed the silver medal - in a time that is still an Australian record of 20 flat - but was ostracized thereafter and was not taken to the Munich Olympics despite qualifying on several occasions to do so.
