Orangehair43 177 Posted March 10 #35 Share Posted March 10 (edited) I think getting 51 medals - as many medals as Beijing, is the minimum needed to avoid issues about the whole idea of lottery funding coming under scrutiny. And that’s a very tough target. Anything under 40-45 medals and even successful sports will be getting cut. My guess is about 42-47 medals.

We've been somewhere between 60-70 at each of the last 3 games and I'd be surprised if we were not somewhere around that again. Obviously it wouldn't take much to drop into the 50s but dropping down to even 47 would be a substantial drop off from recent occasions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
