1000-CARAT DIAMONDS OUR MUCH-LOVED TEAM CLAIMS HISTORIC GOLD FOR AUSTRALIA
THE Diamonds physical win over Jamaica has created history — winning Australia’s 1000th gold medal and creating Commonwealth Games history. It was almost a case of history repeating itself with Diamonds going into the final break with a six-goal lead. Everyone was on the edge of their seats — even the substitutes from both teams were on their feet. With the Jamaican crowd subdued, the cries of ‘let’s go Aussies” could finally be heard — and the tears from the Diamonds could flow.
