Moscow 1980: Aussie Olympians Finally Honoured

After 45 years, the 'traitors' tag is finally being shed. The 1980 Moscow Games squad—who defied the Fraser government’s boycott and copped death threats—will get long-overdue recognition in parliament. Legends like Peter Hadfield and Michelle Ford stood tall in the face of controversy, but the scars ran deep. Now, with PM Albanese set to acknowledge their courage, it’s a bittersweet win for these trailblazers. Anyone else think this is a rivalry with history itself? #Sports #Olympics #AussiePride
