Predication for NZ by Gracenote seemed bit off as usual. 
 

I’d say 22-25 is a possibility 

 

Athletics: 2 to 3 - Kerr for High Jump, Walsh for shotput and McCartney for pole vault.

 

Canoeing - 1 Slalom (Luuka Jones for KX), 4 x for Sprint (K1 500 - 2 Fisher and Carrington, K2 500 Carrington & Hoskins, K4 500) 5 in total

 

Rugby 7s - Both men’s and women’s. 2

 

Cycling - Track - 6 (W Keirin, W Sprint, W Omnium, W Team Sprint, M Madison and M Omnium). Mountain Biking - Sam Gaze - 7 in total 

 

Rowing - 4 (both men’s and women’s single sculls, men’s 4s, women’s 4s)

 

Triathlon - 1 for Wilde 

 

Golf - Ko for women’s 

 

Swimming - 2 Clareburt and Fairweather 1 x each

 

Equestrian - 1 x for team eventing or atleast individual for Tim Price 

 

Sailing - 3 outside chances but it really depends on their day. 

 

Trampoline - maybe if Dylan delivers 2022 WC again

Team NZ are always massively punching above their weight. Much respect

It’s not impossible, but Fairweather likely won’t be on the podium in the women’s 400m freestyle with Ledecky, McIntosh and Titmus. Same for Clareburt in the men’s 200m individual medley, with two Brits, Marchand, Shun, whoever qualifies for United States, and Knox all favored over him.
 

McCartney in women’s pole vault also seems unlikely, she lacks the consistency to be one of the favourites. Caudery, Moon, Morris, Sutej, Kennedy, Murto, and maybe Newman are all over her.

I would assume the medal for Clareburt would be 400m IM not 200m IM. 

I'm going to gamble here and say McIntosh doesn't medal in the 400m free (sorry), and so Fairweather would be the likely beneficiary. The past two "taper meets" Fukuoka and the trials, she hasn't really performed that well, whereas she has improved in all of the others.

They said Clareburt 2, so I’m assuming they’re projecting two medals for him..

 

That’s fine if you don’t think McIntosh will medal, hopefully you’ll be proven wrong 

 

Don’t think she was tapered here though, she has no reason to.

Well she broke the 400m IM WR so she must have tapered somewhat, and she was definitely tapered for Fukuoka.

I think it's 2 total, 1 Fairweather and 1 Clareburt.

I don’t think so. They said “Clareburt 2 and 1x Fairweather each”
