Team Ireland - Paris 2024 Qualification Tracker

Shane Ryan and John Shortt seem to be entitled to invitations having achieved the OCT. Any word if they will get to compete?

Presumably yes as Swim Ireland said they would be inclined to accept OCT invites given the high level needed to actually achieve those standards.

So Ryan could compete in the 100 free because he got the OCT but not the 50m even though he achieved the OQT. I know there are rules but he’s going to be there anyway.

It would be utterly bizarre if that turned out to be the case and given Swim Ireland's strange decisions in the past, at this point who knows. But let's see when we get more info about the invited swimmers.

I don’t mean to sound harsh on some of the non-Irish posters on these forums but some of them are adamant on certain qualifications and then they’re shocked when it turns out they made a mistake.

 

Swim Ireland have said they’ll accept OCT invitations so let’s see if any happen

Ah yeah the system is so convoluted and all national teams including relay teams need to be finalised, and universality quotas allocated and acceoted/rejected before any OCT invites can be officially offered. People probably making educated calculations on OCT invites but might be a but longer before officially confirmed

What have we (Olympic Federation) left to confirm? 
 

The reallocations and the relay squads in Athletics

 

Any OCT invites (may not happen) in swimming

 

The golf team

Think everything else is officially confirmed?

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
    • Just another reason why it's super dumb that the NOC max in freestyle skiing isn't 40.
    • In rugby there's More Squidge Rugby (the main channel has proper videos).
