20 years after the Sydney Olympics, is the golden age of sport over for good?

On this day 20 years ago, the world was watching Sydney for the Olympic Opening Ceremony. Today on The Briefing, we’re reliving the Sydney Olympic glory including some of the most iconic moments across the Games.

The Sydney 2000 Olympics were our biggest ever medal haul to date, so we ask if our sporting heyday is behind us? And how do we get back to our former sporting best? To answer these questions we're joined by Andrew Gaze (basketballer and flag bearer) and Kerri Pottharst (gold medalist in beach volleyball).

In today's headlines:

• Scott Morrison backs gas to bring down power bills
• SA to reopen to NSW, ACT as early as today
• QLD Chief Health Officer says death threats have taken an “enormous toll”
• Dad of three in an induced coma after alleged police head stomp
