    Not to mention our gold and 2 bronze in the boxing :)

    And knocking the mighty ( cough ) Australia out of the Rugby world cup.

    How many world boxing champs have you got ?

    There is always the cricket ( like we give a **** about that )

    I would give you guys props but when i see that more then hlf your medals come from the Welsh/Scottish athletes i just cant.

    Have always found it strange how a country that sent a few of their crims over here to slave away and build a new colony get excited whenever they achieve better sporting results then us.

    But whatever blows your hair back..Poor buggers aint used to much success.

    The sad thing about the poms is that in the lounge, they're claiming victory against the US because 'per capita' they are beating them in the medal tally, yet the same guys come over here, and to the Brit forum and boast about beating us in total medal tally.

    :D

    Yeah, it beats me how their Olympic merger keeps them happy. It wouldn't go down well in the soccer thats for sure. though, they used to say that the reason why GB doesn't field a team in the soccer is because it'd be too disadvantageous for the other teams going up against the likes of England, Scotland, Ireland (when they were part of GB).
    They'd be lucky to qualify now even under GB.

    I suppose they're happy in the fact that they are above us and that's all that matters. Im yet to see any of their teams play, did they even qualify in any team sports?

    Ireland hasn't been part of GB since 1921, when the IRA fought the Poms to the negotiating table. The phony state of Northern Ireland is though...

    Ipswitch mmmmmm by the same definition Australia is a phony state dumb ass. You really don't want to take banter down that route do you. You don't want me to start asking questions about when the aboriginals got the vote, or things like did the Australian gov take aboriginal kids away from their parents in an attempt to destroy their culture and heritage. Not even i would mention the boozing they have been introduced to to keep them down. And before you say it was the Brits who hunted and killed them back in the day, remember those Brits were your ancestors not mine :)

    Back to boxing in the last 50 fights between English and Australian boxers what do you reckon the results would be ? I will give you Nathan Sting and Sam Soliman ( i think ) can you think of any more winners ?

    This is after all a boxing forum, and like i said there is no argument there at all, you guys cannot box. Tszyu 'i am a russian in my heart and always will be'. Mundine 'i give up my title rather than fight Kessler'

    So we got 3 medals in the boxing, i say we as in England , how many did you get ? Is that more than you have won in your entire history ? I think it is :)

    Cricket is a game you guys are good at. Now can you tell me a world sport you are good at ? A world sport as in one the whole world plays ?

    What our medals tally shows is that money and investment = medals, Oz has always invested heavily in sport, we have only recently and now we get results.

    But its good to see you gys ar good losers, after all it was your mp for sport who wanted the bet right ?

    I will always remember your pm handing out the winners medals ( to the ENGLAND rugby team ) in sydney with a really sor look on his face, real good grace.

    For lunch today i am having a nice stake washed down with an Aussie WHINE :)

    We have always been GB. Scotland, Wales, and NI, are not independent countries they are all part of the United Kingdom. We all live under the same roof. Everyones passports states British, we are all officially British - and it will stay that way until one of the countries vote to become independent, and look after themselves. We are Great Britain, Scotland, Wales, and NI are not independent countries - and countries in their own right.

    I can't believe you are denying us this rare victory. :D

    Check out our boxing medals....

    Of course it's a phony state you dick. They drew up a border that purposely left out Nationalist areas. Do some history and come back to me. They weren't my relatives that did that to the Aboriginals. My family immigrated not so long ago.
