The Australian Olympic Committee is counting down the days until Beijing, like the rest of us, and in the remaining two weeks are giving us a chance to get to know our athletes before they leave for the Games.

Actually "meet" some of the team by watching video interviews here (excuse any bad sound quality). They had these up a while ago featuring more Olympic hopefuls, mostly from the AIS (including Hollie Dykes and Melody Hernandez, whom they stupidly captioned as 'Melanie Jones') but now they've narrowed it down to just some of those who got selected to the team. Many of the questions are the same. Last time around, I thought Luke Wiwtowski's interview was hilarious.
Its a mere fortnight to go! Get your VCR's ready and put your armchair-commentary hats on!
