Half way through the calendar year, it’s time to decide what have been the best sporting achievements by Australians thus far. In no particular order my list is as follows.

1. Australia qualified for the football World Cup
The Socceroos qualified for their 3rd World Cup, and their second in a row, with 2 qualifiers remaining.

2. Sam Stosur made the French Open semi-finals
About time an Australian tennis player did something!

3. Queensland won their 4th Origin Series in a row
An amazing rugby league side, easily outclassing NSW who were plagued by injuries and poor selections.

4. Mark Webber’s strong start to the F1 season
Webber finally gets a decent vehicle and has had several podiums already. Looks unlikely to catch Jenson Button but you never know.

5. Melbourne Victory emerged as an A-League Superpower
Pre-season winners, League Winners and then Champions for the second time. A solid team with no apparent weaknesses, they demolished all their rivals. Who’s going to stop them them this season?
