Congratulations to all the medal winners. South Africa is very proud of you, as well as those who may not have won a medal but participated in the Olympic Games, it's an incredible achievement.

We also have to congratulate the SA women's hockey team who won Argentina 2-1. Argentina is ranked 2nd in the world and SA is much lower.

Closing a door when the horse has bolted. The ANC is a joke once again. What "integrity of the ANC"" is Mbulala talking about?

[hilberryable]

The Gold medal and the Bronze medal were won by South African's and not by "Africa". The Olympic Games is a competition between individual countries, not continents.
