 Topic: NZ’s favourite Olympic athlete

If you go here you can vote for who you think it should be.
I just voted for Mahe, even thou he didn't win gold - he still did so well.

I voted for Moss, tossed up between him and Mahe, although I think Mahe will win by a landslide. he is awesome.

Why don't I like Mahe? I want to, I really want to but I just don't. When he was racing against Waddell for the Olympic spot I was backing Waddell. Silly thing is I have no idea why I don't like Mahe coz he is a great athlete and seems like a perfectly nice guy.

I'm with you Becks I can't stand Richie McCaw, I think he's pretty average, and seems to be Henry's pet.

I'm voting for the twins, everyone seemed to have written them off and they nailed it. also they seem to be really lovely women, great role models for my pre-teen niece

I like the Everswindale twins, I used to row at the same club as them years ago in Clive and they really are down to earth, nice people.

Yeah lol Daizy, I can't even tell them apart so how would you know which one is better?
As soon as they won gold we were all singing 'we love to boogy...' hehehe such an awesome race.
I don't like Mahe either for some reason, he was really cocky when they were choosing between he and Waddell. I'm sure he's perfectly nice but oh well. I was really annoyed with him when he went from gold position to bronze until I saw him being pulled on to the stretcher  I felt a wee bit bad for him after that lol.
