A bunch of whinging bastards

The Aussies have really become a bunch of whinging bastards haven’t they.

Before the Aussies lost the Ashes in 2005, you never heard them complain about anything, but since then you hear them complain every now and then about the most insane shit ever!

The latest gripe concerns South Africa’s new running sensation Caster Semenya. Semenya has been a revelation for South Africa at the World Championships in Berlin where she won gold in the Woman’s 800 m in spectacular fashion.

The morning before the race reports from Sydney surfaced that Semenya was actually a man and that she should be able to compete in the woman’s race. It also emerged that it was the Aussie contingent that asked the IAAF to conduct gender tests on Semenya.

Granted Semenya does have big feet, big hands, a flat chest and a manly looking face, but so did Maria Matola. However, when Semenya opens her mouth and sounds like ‘Beast’ Mataweira, you can see where the Aussies are coming from.

Be that as it may, how many gold’s have the Aussies won in this championships? Zero, None, Nadda. So it’s a case of sour grapes.

Over the years the Aussies have really be cultivating this particular vintage.

Like I said, it all started after loosing the Ashes to England in England in 2005. Ever since then the golden age of Aussie dominance is waning.

In the past Australia’s dominance in the pool was total. Ian Thorpe left everyone in his wake as he claimed medal after medal and world record after world record. And that was a bragging point for the Aussies until Michael Phelps came along, smashed all of Thorpe’s previous records in one Olympic Games. Rest of the World 1 - Australia 0

In the past Pat Rafter was one of the top ranked tennis players in the world and was a contender for a number of grand slam titles. When he retired along came that arrogant little shit Lleyton Hewitt who air punches and screams ‘come on’ at the top of his arrogant little shit voice. But ask yourself….. when last did he win a title? Rest of the World 2 – Australia 0

Up until last year Australia held the distinction of being the only country in the world to win the Rugby World Cup twice. Now they are just the whipping boys of Southern Hemisphere rugby. Rest of the World 3 – Australia 0

The only sport where Australia maintain their dominance is in cricket where they will more then likely retain the Ashes by either beating the English or drawing the last test. But watch this space as both England and South Africa pushed Australia to unknown limits over the past few series. Rest of the World 3 – Australia 1.
