JudyJudyJudy Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Was watching this last night whilst on a Youtube binge , They were robbed, Simple as that. They should have walked away with the Gold and even worse they got bronze . They came back from being professional after the 1984 Olympics and there was a lot of insider jealousy about them. Their power and athleticism is amazing to watch. How did they do some of these moves and not fall on their arses ? Any other legendary sporting " robberies" and i mean robberies ? Teams, players , etc who should have won but some reason didn't ? I suppose it can be a subjective concept too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then England went up the park and drop goaled themselves into the final. That was a sickener. 9-6 final score. He's subsequently said that he should've given the kick to Craig Chalmers. He reckons that he was suffering from a head-knock in the incident that led to the penalty. It was a penalty that he should've nailed every single time.

In some ways it may have been a blessing in disguise for him because he then went on to have an incredible career with a fire lit under him about what happened.
