Mary Kom became the first Indian woman boxer to claim a Commonwealth Games Gold
I thank you very much for making us proud.
Look, we understand many people have been disappointed by tonight's Closing Ceremony.
The decision not to broadcast the moment athletes entered Carrara Stadium on the Gold Coast was labelled a "disgrace" and led the organising committee's chairman Peter Beattie to admit he got it wrong.
Seven presenter Johanna Griggs, a 1990 Commonwealth Games swimming bronze medallist, teed off at organisers after viewers initially expressed frustration with the broadcaster when athletes were left out.
"We're the Australian rights-holders so we can only show the pictures that are provided by the actual host broadcasters". Here's a video of the commentators absolutely spewing about it, on live TV.
"I'm just a bit overwhelmed by the whole thing", Fearnley said. She said she was "furious".
Viewers vented their frustration on social media - while Channel Seven commentator' Jo Griggs expressed her disappointment on air, saying it "wrecked a tradition". "You want to see them celebrating 11 days of great sport", she said.
"Did we stuff it up? Yes". "But I think at this point at the Games, standing around really isn't the biggest concern given all the athletes had taken part in their events and they've competed". "I can't be more honest about it than that", Beattie said in an interview on the Sunrise morning news show.

"We missed out on all of that".
The closing ceremony is due to begin at 8.30pm.
But a subsequent ABC report on the broadcast arrangement between the Games and Channel 7 stated the network was well aware of the fact athletes would not be included in the footage provided, and that Channel 7 was actually permitted to exclusively film the athletes' entrance.
Former Australian Idol contestant Anthony Callea, how performed on the night, was seen leaving the stadium mid-Ceremony.
"Or an athletics event so that everybody can see the standard that we have within the Commonwealth". Including the Birmingham presentation.
Zempilas also pointed out the speeches from the dignitaries dragged on for "way too long" and were a little "self-indulgent". Having said all of that, and we all hope sincerely this doesn't over shadow the Games. 11 day of competition have been spectacular. The athletes' performance must have surely grabbed the attention of the corporate sponsors too.
According to him, myself and my coaching crew believe in possibility of getting better results from raw talents and we put heads together from the onset to realise that objective.
