OT: Games of the XXXIII Olympiad - Paris 2024 - 26/7 to 11/8

[King-Gutho94]

was in 2021 due to covid - finished 6th and got rorted in the semi against penrith going down by 2

If my memory serves me though our horror form slump that year was during the 2-3 week Olympic period.

We should have a poll!

By the end of the first week of competition, will the Aussie team have more gold medals than the eels have points on the ladder ?

No chance based on a very simple google search.

If we get more than 14 gold medals in the first week then we are on track to break every team record we have ever set in the olympics.

So watching the Rugby 7s and the Aussies suck

 

[JokerEel]

We won but boy Rugby 7s is crap...
Maybe it's just the Aussies

Tbh haven’t looked at the program. The shitty time difference has waned on my usual Olympic excitement…

That's the spirit!
However, I agree.

I'm actually really excited about the Olympics.

For the past 30 or so years, the Olympics have provided some of Australia's greatest ever sporting moments.
I look forward to watching more of them this time round.

 

[Happy MEel]

Decent first half from the Aussies.

This appeared in my feed. Basically it’s an article about a swimmer who has a tan line. I am only putting it here to highlight poor journalism. I will also post the photo as an example of the nothing story and expose this garbage.

Germany gave our girl a flogging in the footy, not even Sam Kerr would have stopped it, they were just so dominant

They also have the USA in their pool. Maybe they are goooone already.
