Aussie Spirit Gold, Sevens Heartbreak | Morning After Paris

7/30/2024
Kaylee McKeown wins the right type of gold medal, the come-over-the-top-late type, to continue Australia's gold medal flow. May that tap doth flow forevermore (until week two)! We JAG Bronze in the "four by two", which of course is the correct way to attain this medal, and unfortunately Winnington misuses his carrots. Elsewhere, the Women's Sevens suffer a shock double-loss, confining them to fourth, an Argus Review, and a difficult (for us) interview with New Zealand's Laura McGoldrick. There are also calls for Argus Reviews in the Basketball. The Sharks get up deluxe, The Hockeyroos go down, and Simon Biles elicits the general sentiment of "f*** meeee!" from blokes eating breakfast.
