1978 C'wealths 200m final where Sonia drew lane 1. She would certainly have won with a better lane draw as she was closing all the time down the home straight!

  • Too bad the Raelene pulled up with a tore archillies tendon in the second round, I am sure this would have been a piece of cake for her, if that hadn't happened.

  • Denise was always a great athlete but suffered tremendously from nerves, she ran 11.0 sec for 100m in 1973, breaking Raelene Boyles Commonwealth record, yet was only a bronze medalist in the 100m in 1974., behind Boyle, Over 200m she was a top athlete, In 1980 she ran a Commonwealth Record 22.35sec 200m, again breaking Raelene's 22.45 record from 1972.

  • Have you got the 100m from 1974?

  • Denise Boyd was a great athlete and deserved her gold medal here, after years of running in Raelene Boyle's shadow.

  • Where is Kim Robertson of NZ? Eliminated in the semis?

  • Kathy Cook was hot

  • Denise Boyd was a terrific athlete but always seemed to be overshadowed by Raelene Boyle. Anyone who can compete in two Olympic finals is no slouch. She deserved this win. I'm surprised she didn't compete in more 400m. Her long stride would have been suited in that event. But then again this was the Koch era so probably would have been pointless given what was going on with the East German's back then.

  • Sometimes you forget how great all our former athletes were. Enjoyed watching Boyle and the other aussies

  • Cheers mate!
