Chance of fisticuffs foiled

What a disappointment! The Australia Olympic womens 8 rowing team has been given counselling ahead of the parade for athletes in Sydney today. Hands up who would have been mildly amused at the sight of a couple of chicks throwing punches as their car headed down George St? Seriously though, I find the level of counselling and general molly-coddling these women are receiving a tad hard to believe.

Update: My dreams almost came true. Apparently rower Catriona Oliver slapped Sally Robbins at an official Olympic function. The slap was across the shoulder so no face-slapping foxy-boxing style happened.
