Interesting. If this works France could be gold medal favourites

It won't work if they play no tournaments with the team beforehand. 

Yeah Union players need some experience with Sevens or else they will be ran circles around. Raw talent can only go so far.

France was a decent outsider (if Fiji were not Fiji) beforehand. The team is building up nicely and I wouldn't be surprised to see them win a stage this season.

I don't really buy the "put 15-a-side players in the mix with light preparation", more harmful than anything. And Penaud despite his qualities is too much of a liability defensively, can work with 14 partners, not with 6.

Wow!

So what do we think here? Dupont to carry the French flag or even light the Olympic cauldron?

1. Impossible as the 7s tournament starts just before the opening ceremony and goes on after.

2. Impossible as we're not rotten enough (yet) to offer the flag to a "non-olympian" (same applies for Mbappé or Wembanyama :sick:)

    • looks like the agreement is the international federations are in fact hosting the event, not the AG organizers, so everything is up to them to make it happen.   Teqball is now confirmed to have 5 events (singles and doubles) does it mean easy 5 gold medals for Thailand ?   Padel is not 100% confirmed yet. I assume there are still talks ongoing between the IF and the Japanese organizers.
    • I feel like this year's Eurovision is more wide open than ever 😂   There isn't a clear favorite, and that makes everything more exciting. Finland is looking strong, sure, but Ukraine always knows how to surprise people and connect with them. I was checking out the odds a bit, and I was struck by how quickly they're rising.   By the way, I found a site that compares the odds pretty clearly: https://casasdeapuestaseurovision.com/   It’s nothing special, but it gives you an idea of how things are shaping up before the semifinals. Although we all know how this goes… at Eurovision, everything can change in a matter of minutes  
    • Learned that Tigst Assefa  in London also lowered the women-only Women's Marathon time.  (I learned they have a women-only record, and a mixed record, to avoid pacemakers...also nevermind that she was running along with other men in the men's marathon, which had started first.)
    • Anyway, a piece of history has been written today as  for the first time ever topped a preliminary round group at the U18s.  Was about time as well though      Quarterfinals schedule is also on - The Relegation direct match GER vs NOR is schedulled also on Thursday morning at 10 AM in Trenčín    
    • Tuesday April 28th, 2026 - Round-Robin Day 3 Schedule (GMT +3)   12:30   Lithuania vs South Korea 16:00   Italy vs France 19:30   Austria vs Estonia
    • Kids playing huraah-hockey  zero defensive ambitions and coaches facepalming the whole 2nd period.   This was pure entertainment for sure haha
    • I really don't like U18Worlds schedule....  Finland's QF game against CZE is at 1pm our time lol PS. Hey @hckošice, That Finland - Slovakia game was PRETTY CRAZY?
