Yeah just a total load of crap. Darcy shouldn't be there but the photo is totally okay. Just reflects on the whole uptight bunch of arseholes that populate Australia today.

Does the Olympic shooting team have to go home if there is a photo of them in their speedos. This is absolute cock-knockery.

I dont care if its a beat up, made up, lies or whatever. 

Darcy has a big debt to the Karma gods after declaring bankruptcy to avoid paying compensation.

Plus its the olympics - spoilt tax paid brats.

I agree Dazzler, Darcy is a grub, smashed up and stopped another's hope in winning a medal, was found guilty in a court of law, awarded to pay compensation to the victim of his assault then whimped out and declared bankruptcy,
The other idiot in the photo faked an attack on his person.

Real good ambassadors for Austraila - NOT, two assholes who shouldn't even have been selected to represent Australia

What happens if one of our Olympic Shooters wins a medal? Is he/she allowed to get a photo taken with the medal and the firearm???

What a load of sh*t!!

X 2

side issue:
the TV news here in Adelaide (channel 7 and ch9) didn't even have the decency to mention the word "pistol" in the report the day that the olympic team was announced, even though the Chapmans from SA are the only father/daughter combination to ever compete in the same sport in the same olympics. Fat chance of a photo getting printed if the media wont even mention the word "pistol"
Chappie won a medal in the last Commonwealth games and it barely rated a mention............

Well not only was this story blown all out of proportion (needlessly) but the two have now been "punished".
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/TopStories/2012/06/09/DArcy_Monk_punished_for_photos_by_AOC_759306.html
So what have they been punished for?
Posting inoffensive pictures (well inofensive to all but about 10% of the Australian population) of something they did that is 100% legal.
What a joke...

They need to stop this rubbish and start thinking that we have better athletes in other sports who do more, but it's always the spoil swimmer who get all the funding and riches. It's about time the funding for the athletes change as most of our swimmer earn a lot of money and the rest are forgotten.

All up who cares that they posed with guns, big deal it was lawful. The Olympic committee need to shut up and do something for everyone in sport in stead of making fools of all our sport men and women.

I always thought the olympics were supposed to be for amatuer sportspeople.... not fulltime professionals..

Gee,
    My mother had her photo on the front page of the paper with a rifle - no fuss then - she was in the 1956 Olympic eliminations though.
Oh and it was on the shooting team.


Is it jealousy or what that drives these numskull eejits writing drivel in the daily rags.

Yep totally agree..

I bet he paid for a decent Queens Council too..He shouldn't even be representing Australia with his form,good look for young kids.Sniper punching a team mate leaving terrible injuries..

I would be impressed with the monies he earned from the Olympics and if he wins medals to be sold off and paid to the victim as a goodwill gesture...
