    Also Stuey Musialik needs to go to Europe next year i think. I think Holland would be a good spot.

    I just think Arnie is out of his league, and even with the Olyroo's. Let him establish himself in the A-League at least imo.

    I wasn't a fan of his selections, and the 3 overaged players he picked.

    Yeah, federeci was great, and for mine, he'd be our 2nd picked for the senior team behind Schwarzer.
    Looking forward to see how our younger guys progress. Hopefully guys like Djite get a decent amount of football.

    Also, it's time Viduka makes up his mind whether or not he wants to play international football anymore.
    We're at our final phase of qualifying, and it's only fair that he plays some part. Even someone like Viduka can't expect to walk into a World Cup without playing any part in the qualifiers.

    The medals outside the pool so far have gone pretty much as expected for the Aussies.

    10 golds in the pool would have set you up for a big haul. Yanks really did for you in the men's swimming though.

    Either Britain or Australia should top the sailing medals.

    We've dominated the cycling, but I think Meares will beat Pendleton in the sprint. Aussies also ahve a very good chance in the women's points race.

    I am amazed how we have smoked everyone in the velodrome.

    We did the same thing in the World Championships a few months ago, so none of the medals have been a shock.

    GB in the cycling have been incredible.

    England?
    Wales?
    Scotland?
    NIreland?

    Cricket needs to be added to the next Olympics, all 3 forms of it too, along with Rugby league.

    If you had cricket in the Olympics, it would be as follows:

    Tests

    Gold - Australia
    Silver - South Africa
    Bronze - England

    ODI

    Gold - Australia
    Silver - Sri Lanka
    Bronze - South Africa

    T20

    Gold - India
    Silver - Sri Lanka
    Bronze - Pakistan

    South Africa would do their usual choking against Australia, Brett Lee & Nathan Bracken vs Graeme Smith & Herschelle Gibbs would be an interesting tussle in the ODI, but there would only be one winner.
