> [@foxyrover](#): > > This is that usual QLD propaganda based on where athletes are based: swimming of course gets a billion by default. Oh please. How else would you do it apart from which State people live in? The fact is Queensland produces a disproportionate number of Games medals due to a variety of reasons - both the number born in QLD or who move there. Most of the swim stars who move to QLD for better training opportunities move there as kids or teenagers to train. Some from NSW in particular just seem to get bent out of shape about it. ---
