Australia is the greatest sporting nation in the world per capita. We never have the biggest Olympic team, not do we top the medal tally. In the Olympics we generally come 4th of the medal tally, but judging as we have only 20 million people (half the population of Tokyo) in out entire country, I reckon that's pretty good. In the Commonwealth Games we kick bottom. For example, I went to the cycling today at the Melbourne Commonwealth Games which are currently on, and the Aussies won all the gold medals up for grabs. Our cycling and female swimming teams currently are the best in the world.
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE, OI OI OI!!!
PS. We need to ditch the Union Jack on our flag.

Who gives a big ol' flying phuck!!!
P.S. We "ditched" the British Union Jack 230 years ago; you blokes are just now thinking about it?
Maybe someone decided that the red bits and the blue bits should be separated and added some stars to brighten it up?
