It's the Final Day of Tokyo 2020!
<p>We’ve made it- it’s the final day of the Tokyo Games, and we have emerged intact, covid-free, and laden with sweet, sweet gold.</p><p>The final days saw more success for Australia; God brought home Tom Green and Jean van der Westhuyzen for gold on a kayak, but could only afford Nicola McDermott a silver in the high jump. Nevertheless, does Liberal preselection await?</p><p>Elsewhere, Keegan Palmer settled the debate on what constitutes an essential service, before we marvelled at the quick-thinking of Cedric Dubler in the decathlon. Then we pardoned the Kookaburras for breaking the rules for a few slabs.</p><p>Triathlon is under the pump, with calls for a culture review emanating from a disgruntled former athlete- and that’s good enough for us. Will they finally admit to the one glaring issue that has dogged the sport? And will Woman’s Day play it’s part?</p><p>Finally, we wrap up this glorious no-fun event by discussing the winners and losers. Was our high finish in the medal tally adequate? How good was it to see the IOC finally get a win? Will the inevitable next wave of covid be worth it for Japan?</p><p>Audio production courtesy of Tim ‘T-Dog’ Eldridge. Graphic design courtesy of Julia Edwards.</p><p>Thanks to everyone for joining us during this special Olympics series of Have a Go. We appreciate your support and we'll be back soon with more episodes once we've recovered.
