Hmm. I thought sportsmanship and fair play were particularly Australian character traits - or at least it's part of your national myth that they are. I thought you prided yourselves on such things. I guess it just goes to prove that national myths and reality coincide infrequently. But is winning at any cost really winning? I'm not so sure.
