2026 Commonwealth Games Medal Table – Day 7

30. 07. 2026

Nationals Leader Matt Canavan condemns the ABC after an alleged violent segment sparked backlash, saying the content was “outrageous” and had no place on the public broadcaster.

Olympic gold medallist Cate Campbell OAM has praised Mrs Gina Rinehart’s decades of support for Australian swimming, saying her backing helped rebuild the sport and contributed to the success Australian swimmers continue to achieve today.

The ABC’s refusal to apologise for airing a “satirical” short film that portrayed an imaginary grotesque assault on Gina Rinehart has prompted accusations that the national broadcaster has failed to take a stand against violence towards women.

Athletes will receive a bonus for every medal that they earned, with payments set to hit their bank accounts within two weeks of the closing ceremony ending.
