The 2012 Olympics

Someone had to start one right
Some have said we 'over estimated' & expected too much from our swim team ?
Others have said the government needs to invest 'more money'
PLEASE !! Give me a Break !!
Swimming Australia has had a Government funded silver spoon up it's arse for decades.Mostly at the expense of other sporting sections.
We don't have the corporate billions of the USA to pour into the Olympics.
Nor do we have the perform or perish doctrine of Communist China
I'm glad that these Olympics have finally shone a light on what many have taken for granted as our divine right too 'rule the pool'.
