Russia being wiped out has certainly made it feel not only a more clean Olympics but given us more chance to win gold medals.

The kid was born in USA. Lived on the GC from age 1 to 14. Moved back to the states.

Now at age 21 he still skates for Oz.

That's what loyalty is Blaize.

"Honestly it's where I learnt how to walk, talk, skate, surf, it's where I learnt everything I know how to do," Palmer said of Australia, where he lived until he was 14 and moved back to the states.

"I feel like I owe it to Australia and the Gold Coast where I learnt how to skate. It just felt right for me, for sure

Talagi doesn't even know how to spell "loyalty", let alone what it means.

He is getting the chance tomplay along side Nathan. I don't blame him. Our coaching staff couldn't even work out his position. His dad is a coach and obviously not impressed with our rubbish set up.
