And, I bow to you, Peter Norman!

Everything about recognising Peter Norman has been 'too little too late'. One of the most shameful stories of neglect in Australian sport. And 50 years on he still holds the Australian Men's 200M record at 20.06.

Why?

Can we all have a statue? Or if not I then all our athletes . Andrew could find a place for all of them , after all the chinese found places for the terracotta warriors

I never got this protest. They were selected in the American Olympic team, that seems to be very equal. But still I am ok with the statue. I just hope we do not see protests to take it down. Statues seem to be an easy mark by far right & far left activists lately.

Harsh reality is that the white German American Trump's government looks like whites only Germany's rather than blacks & whites America since inception!

Well deserved and about bloody time!
