      Hungary, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Cuba have done better per capita in summer Olympics. Actually, considering how much money we give sport in this country I'd argue we under perform. So many of our athletes underperform and choke especially our swimmers. Ariarne Titmus' gold was the first woman since 2008 to win an individual gold. Horton and Chalmers in 2016 were the first men since 2004.
      And look at how Great Britain dominates us now. Even in swimming they're equal.
      And New Zealand has done way better. 46 golds compared to 150 for Australia despite only having 20% of our population. Australia should have 230 golds population adjusted.
      We need to stop patting ourselves on the back and admit the failures.

      It is not about the population; it is about the percentage of people who actually swim. I am assuming you're an Aussie for sure, Obviously can Chinese will do the math's better. Out of 25 million Aussie, 23 million swims, they should be winning all the medals. For the Chinese Billions of people may be 1000 like swimming and they got great results and medals, even world record faster then the Aussie. Do your Math's again. lol

    You forgot Peter Norman getting silver in the 200 meters in 1968. Okay, he did not beat Tommie Smith, but he set an Australian record for the 200 meters that STILL STANDS 53 years later , PLUS he gave Tommie Smith and John Carlos the idea to make use of the one pair of gloves they had , for their iconic fist in the air protest on the awards stand (they only had one pair of gloves, so Peter Norman suggested they each wear one glove ).

    1. Kieran Perkins winning the 1500m freestyle in Barcelona and Atlanta and becoming the first Australian to win back to back golds at this distance
    2. Dawn Fraser winning 3 100m freestyle titles in a row at the 1956, 1960 and 1964 Olympics. The only Aussie to have won 3 individual golds in a row.
    3. Steve Hooker becoming the first Australian to ever win a gold in the Pole Vault in a World record of 5.96m (at the time).
    4. Emma McKeon becoming Australia’s greatest female swimmer with 11 Olympic medals 5 of them gold
    5. Australia beating the USA in the men’s 4x100 freestyle relay in Sydney 2000.
