Queensland equal 5th on Olympic medal tally

Queensland are succeeding where the rest of Ausfailure is, well,
failing. They've just picked up their 8th gold medal in the womens'
triathlon through the brilliant Emma Snowsill.

That goes with the 6 gold medals in the pool - all by Queensland
girls. Plus Duncan Free helping that passenger Drew Ginn across the
line for rowing gold on Saturday.

Brilliant stuff.

The only other Australian state to win gold is Victoria. The other
rowing gold was a Melbournian and a Tasmanian, and we all know
Tasmania is just the excrement of Victoria, being the arse end of
Australia.

Good for you. It's good to see people with no brains can still succeed.

There's a lot of it about.

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/spo...-14823,00.html

THE Bulldogs have released Sonny Bill Williams from his five-year NRL
contract after negotiating a financial settlement with the want-away
star.

Details of the settlement were not disclosed but it is believed the
Bulldogs were given in the vicinity of $750,000 to allow Williams to
take up a two-year deal with French rugby club Toulon.

Williams had been under contract with the Bulldogs through to the end
of the 2012 season but walked out on the club with seven games
remaining in the current campaign.

The settlement stipulates that Williams cannot play for any other NRL
club until the end of the 2012 season, though the Kiwi international
has already stated his intention never to return to rugby league.

"We remain bitterly disappointed at the manner in which Sonny Bill
deserted his team-mates and his supporters," Bulldogs chief executive
Todd Greenberg said in a statement today.

"We have, however, reached the point where we need to get on with
business and we have withdrawn the injunction against him playing for
any other club.

"Neither the Bulldogs nor Sonny Bill have anything further to gain by
drawing this situation out any further.

"With this matter resolved we now look to finishing off our final few
games of the season as strongly as possible and delivering Steve
Folkes the farewell he deserves."
