i am watching the australian hall of fame (for sport) ceremony & without being disrespectful how can steve bradbury make that as basically he is only known for winning gold because all the others fell over, totally :? :? :? at this decision
i thought secret groups were a thing of the past, well not on websites anyway

I think Steven Bradbury deserves to be up there as he won in a sport we don't normally excel at.
Claiming its less worthy because people fell over would be like Central claiming they were less worthy of winning the GF because North kicked the ball poorly.

I heard in an interview say that his plan was to try and keep up with them as well as he could and hope that 1 or 2 of them collide to give him a chance for the medal. Smart strategy, that worked pretty bloody well!
