Its shaping up to be a pretty bad day for Australian swimming based on the ABC article on the Olympic team coaches comments.

We need our government to step in and create a situation where we don’t need environmental vandals to prop up our sports.

Not sure i’m fully there with you on that one. Government seems to fund sports in general quite a lot, lots of other costs i’d rather them use any extra money on.

I think this is more a case of special interest associations like this need to think about the designs of their funding models if they want to avoid low levels of duress like this
