So the 2006 Commonmwealth Games are due to start in Melbourne next Wednesday. Yawn. And the Queen of Great Britain is in Australia to open the Games. Yawn.

I cannot get enthused about either event. Yawn. Maybe that's me. I'm the arty type.
Then again we can ask: Do the Commonwealth Games hold any credibility as an international sports events anymore, or are they now just a colonial relic, an imperial anachronism? Can and should the Commonwealth Games be re-invented to find a new and distinct place in the political and sporting cultures of the countries of the Commonwealth?
It's a television media spectacle, is it not?
