The increase in the Australian tally over Athens is due to a stronger swim team.The womens especially are much stronger than 4 years ago with many more World Record holders than what we had in 2004.Most other sports...especially cycling have seen a downturn..... Personally I think Australia will probably get around 20 Gold and around 50 medals

SI is fairly accurate for Australia... 2004-SI predicted 19 Gold..We got 17 I remember 2000 also wasnt far off the mark. As for 2008 Gold :22 Silver 14 Bronze: 18 Total:54 That would easily be our most succesful Games...
