I'm not Australia so I can't answer for the entire country, but personally I didn't find it that big of a deal.  They did fantastically and the Aussies underperformed in some of the events they have traditionally excelled in (eg rowing and cycling).  Not to take anything away from what the Aussies have achieved, but when it comes to Australia vs Great Britain in Beijing, no excuses - they kicked our butts.

I think it's only the people that keep bashing the Poms about their sporting inferiority that feel embarrassed by it.  From some of the "sore loser" responses I've seen on this website, it seems quite a few people are stung by it.
