Australia encourages athletes to 'Rip the Brits to bits' by petejanes

The Australian government has released an internet video featuring the strap line "Let's rip those Brits to bits in London 2012", which aims to motivate potential Aussie athletes ahead of the London Olympics.

The 80-second video stars a British hoodie mocking the Australians for their lack of sporting talent and dismal chances for golds at the next Olympics.

He says: "I'll call you an Aussie muppet. You aint got what it takes son. The only gold you'll be picking up will be from a chocolate wrapper. Jog on.

"Oh, you might pick up something in diving. Yeah. Diving in football."
The hoodie, who is labelled as a "Brit with a mouth as wide as the Thames", goes on to say, "You won't win nothing Aussie, nothing, zilch. So mate, you may as well stay home. Because there's no way you're making it to London".
