Joshi 93 Posted August 4, 2021 #131 Share Posted August 4, 2021 If NZ decided to become a state of Australia and it very nearly happened back in the early 1900s and we'd combine to become Australasia just like in 1908-1912. We will have a combined total of: / 20g 8s 20b and be sitting 3rd. It's become a discussion on Twitter recently and it's all about setting our differences aside and about beating Mother Britain. Them damned antipodeans! This is mainly coming from big brother Australia too. Oh only if this were to become true. It won't of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't of course Interesting that those two nations didn't win a medal in the same event. Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

No need to bother with continental qualification any more you could just insist on quotas for every event. By the way I like the way the Aussies have incorporated New Zealand into the team's name. thiago_simoes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quasit 849 Posted August 4, 2021 #136 Share Posted August 4, 2021 After Day 12 Rio: 217/306 events, 79 NOCs with medals After Day 12 Tokyo: 242/339 events, 85 NOCs with medals Not too much movement today but with Italy's gold medal we have the same 10 NOCs (just as ) in the Top 10 as the previous time. Also, with Syria's medal today we're just one more country away from equalling Rio. Which should happen in the next day(s). As expected beforehand, Norway bouncing back from Rio (0-0-3 in Rio) and as mentioned above, Kyrgyzstan with their best performance yet. 4th place counter* (24) (16) (14) (12) (11) (10) (8) (7) (6) (5) (4) (3) (2) (1) and the Refugee Olympic Team *5th places in events that award two bronze medals; also includes QF losers in boxing Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.

Jinzha 559 Posted August 4, 2021 #137 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I wonder how many gold medal chances have left. It's a close race for the 7-12 ranks. I'm expecting a fairly quiet day for tomorrow, but then an absolute banger on friday with 3 gold medal favorites! Of course Weertman (10km swimming), Vetter (heptathlon) and Van Schip (omnium) are free to prove me wrong tomorrow thiago_simoes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle 747 Posted August 4, 2021 #138 Share Posted August 4, 2021 In which event Syria won their medal?? is my mother’s home country. I’m very proud to be half-arabic. Makedonas, vinipereira and thiago_simoes 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intoronto 4,510 Posted August 4, 2021 #139 Share Posted August 4, 2021 If all goes well. Canada has 4 gold medal chances (Warner, both women's Canoeing events and Women's soccer team). Hoping all 4 can deliver and make a serious push for top 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda expected this as they only had archery and men's sabre as strong contenders. Shin Jea-hwan was their surprise in men's vault. Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.
