Coventry making it very clear that Brisbane is not going to have 36 sports.

Separating Greco-Roman from freestyle wrestling doesn't make much sense given their own definition of discipline based on field of play. So that likely meand they are going to kick it out.

And interesting that Estanguet in the Programme Commission signed the death sentence of canoe slalom. Talk about forgetting where you come from.
