Women don't glow anymore, Men don't thunder....
"You better run, you better take cover"......It was nauseating to the point of dizziness....
The not-so distant past.....Australia: World Power in cricket and rugby. The best young tennis player in Lleyton Hewitt AND with him at the helm, winning the Davis Cup of course. Then there was the Sydney Olympics. Man, did those Aussies bag some medals! Remember Torpedo Thorpe in the ‘pool? That boy had flippers for feet....And horrors above horrors, their female hockey team winning the gold medal. I thought it was the worst olympics ever....Yes, for a while I got sick of Aussie this, Aussie that. And their never-ending gloating......So....what has happened in the last couple of weeks? Aussie netball team beaten by the New Zealanders...Football team suffers big time in the Confederations Cup...Their rugby team loses 3 in a row against South Africa, then last Saturday again against the All Blacks (and I just KNOW they’re heading for another defeat this weekend) First time since 1982 that they lose 4 in a row, I believe.... And of course.....Their cricket team...NOT going to elaborate. Anyone out there as happy as I am about the Aus going “down under”??? (I work with a couple of Aus supporters and now I am gloating.....big time) Maybe it’s in the water.....I think they should check their water......Or their heads.

Good to see the Aussies finally failing in EVERYTHING . I guess the effects of obesity in their country is finally catching up with them. |

I was listening to BBC's Oz correspondant Michael Percard saying that kids arent playing cricket anymore-and that could affect the Aus team in about 10-15 years time.
