Who were the best performing Australian male and female athletes for 1998? How does Shirvo's 10.03 compare to Hames' Aus. Record in the Decath? Is it better to be the no.2 female Javelin thrower or No.1 Pole Vaulter? Was Creighton's World Cup 5k better than Monna's 10k in KL? Just how good is "Jumping" Jai? Are our female sprinters better than our very successful throwers? What about Rohan Robinson, Scott Ferrier or Jane Jamieson? The possibilities are endless, we've tried to provde most of the likely candidates. So get to it and rank them from 1 to 10, and we'll allocate the votes from 10 for 1st to 1 for 10th. Make sense? We'll be compiling the "popular picks" as regularly as possible. 

If you feel we've missed someone I guess you can email your choices to us...although we reserve the right to question you on such picks and ignore dubious votes. Democracy only goes so far! To see the most recent results click here.

If this thinng attracts enough votes we will be running other polls in the future, such as global rankings, event rankings and all-time polls. When we've moved on to other surveys, past results will be available here 

have wandered past this ballot box since we opened voting on October 5, 1998.
