This parody concerns the farce at the Olympics, otherwise known as Australia's Women's Eights Rowing Team. Or does it concern the way the media have portayed it? Who would know? Rower Sally Robbins stopped rowing 500 metres from the finish, and dropped her oar 100 metres out, later claiming to be physically and emotionally spent. The same rower, dropping her oar in a similar manner, cost Australia what seemed certain victory in the world championships just two years ago. One team-mate alledgy threatened to throw her out of the boat. Another publicly criticised her in a television interview. AOC (Australian olympic Committee) Chairman John Coates calls a meeting to reprimand the team and voila! At a press conference today, the whole team states they are united and there is no animosity whatsoever towards Sally Robbins! Something smells fishy, and methinks it is not just the rowing venue of Schinias... As a country, Australia prides itself on it's ability to rise to the occasion in sport, against greater opposition who often make the mistake of underestimating us (England, are you listening? Heh heh). However, this little carry on rubs severely against the grain....How embarrassing!
