Yes we certainly can. Spain is one of the top teams . Same with Australia. We are right in it with both teams. And energy is a real thing . So send every good vibe you guys have . And release as much anxiety and fear as you can haha

Eh. I don’t agree with you on that one. If they qualify (big IF), they’ll certainly be contending for medals, along with Germany, Spain, Australia, France, United States, and China. Pretty much everyone except Azerbaijan. 
 

But yeah, the women’s team has no chance anymore. 

I mean, sure. Every team has a chance. If everyone else gets food poisoning or if their buses get lost on the way to the arena, Canada has a chance. 

 

But even then they'd manage to trip on their shoelaces and knock themselves out instead of stepping on the podium.

That doesn’t need to happen for Canada to have a chance…

 

And no, Azerbaijan isn’t podiuming.

I want them to win and qualify, because the more Canadian teams the better. But no way this team is challenging for medals in Paris. Sad, but true. Just like the 5x5 women's team. 

I may have thought this when the score was 6-1 Spain. But as the game went on I realized they were playing like the stronger team, they never gave up when they were down. It’s unfortunate they didn’t win against Spain but should they beat Hungary I do think they should be a medal contender, just like they have been at most of the competitions they’ve been at.

I’ve been following this squad since mid 2021, and have been cheering for them at the majority of the events that they’ve competed at since then, SO SO happy for them.
