We love being a big fish in a small pond 😁 . Nothing like smashing Canada and the UK (only split up into its constituent countries) every four years LOL. When was the last time Australia didn’t finish top of both the overall and gold medal table at a CG? 1978?

That also presumes that the Greek government (and their citizens) would actually want it permanently. I don’t think their economy would be able to sustain holding the Olympics on any ongoing basis (it was hard enough for them in 2004). You can hardly force the Olympics on them, can you.
