There must be a real suicidal feeling in Australia right now, a country whose whole national identity is based on sport:

Lose to India/S.Africa @ Cricket
Lose RLWC final to N.Zealand
Lose in Olympic Medals table to G.Britian
No top Aussie Tennis players anymore
Lose the RU tri nations to N.Zealand and lose to Wales

Australia = Born losers?

about the only thing of note they have done recently is record hefty wins over England in rugby league and rugby union, just like they will do next year in the cricket ashes

Thought i'd bring this back to the front page as it looks like SA are going to win again unless there's an Aussie miracle.

Telling eveyone something is "FACT" (in capital letters) when (IN FACT!) it is not, is bloodly irritating and I never take any notice of it.

Not right either IMO Ajantha Mendis is PoS and he only played 3 tests.

Hopefully the weather won't come to the Aussies rescue.
