Hi Mateusz, I've noticed that you named the flagbearers without any citation or source? How did you know this?

Just like me

 

Well since this is not Wikipedia, let's have fun in finding them I know the IOC will release the list before/after the ceremony later, and don't worry because I'll try finding and verifying the sources for flag bearers which we got from FB/emails

Before the ceremony. It happened at the previous Games before.

Why wait if you can have the most direct source possible  

Because we still have one more day to spot and search for the most direct sources and cite them instantly on the forum. For example, Germany will announce its flag bearer within today. Surely, the sources related to the announcement will be identified and trending. Once we found it, we place it here.

the official list will be published at what hour?

Most likely. Tomorrow morning (Brazil time). Dunno what hour. But I assure the IOC will publish the list on that day itself. Patience is a virtue.

[MantaRaymarc 75]

Guys! For those who are able to contact the NOCs regarding the names of flag bearers during the opening ceremony, let's just wait for the sources to be cited. If not, the official list will be released by tomorrow.

Canada down to 314 now. Jessica Smith's appeal to be on the team was denied.

In what sport does she play?

[MantaRaymarc 75]

Worse, parts of the athlete profiles are missing unlike London 2012 (no club, no coach name, no picture)

Most idiotic part of that decision is that Nigeria will play matches on 4th and 7th August in Manaus!! So he'll travel 3000km to Rio and 3000km back just to carry a flag.

Exactly. Very idiotic to choose, very impossible to happen.

Wow. Football players deserve to carry the flag in the opening ceremony. This is indeed a bad call. Nigerians would have picked Segun Toriola or Blessing Okagbare.

Free card or wild card? Looks like FINA has done an administrative error three times already. Greece, Belarus, and now Hungary?

Dávid Horváth competing in the men's 200 m breaststroke? How come? Dániel Gyurta was the only Hungarian achieving the FINA A-cut.

Almost impossible

and can be considered somehow amazing though

Same as Belarus, Kazakhstan, and South Korea, unless they have released the full list of athletes. They're all incomplete with athlete profiles.

[MantaRaymarc 75]

Guys, I need your help for Belarus, Kazakhstan, and South Korea! Are there any sources related to the list of athletes for the aforementioned countries?
