Shooting 2016 Discussion Thread

Double Olympic trap champion Michael Diamond (AUS) was caught driving drunk with a rifle and 150 rounds on his back seat. This resulted in him losing his weapons license, at least for now.

 

What do you think, should the Australian NOC refuse his participation in Rio because of this (if he even gets his license back, that is)? I think they should. People who act this irresponsible especially in a sport like shooting should just stay home. 

 

Who would be next in line? Another Australian or another nation?

Gold for Velickovic in air pistol Stefanovic was in final in 10m, Pletikosic in prone and Sebic is in 3x50 final today. So, who will be out of Olympics now?

 

Of 10 candidates for Rio, 9 of them can win medal there (and all of them have realistic chance for that). Only Sekaric are without chance, but Im sure that she will be in Rio because record.

How do you see Pletikovic' chances? That would make for such an awesome story, winning a medal for the Unified Team and then competing again (and have a realistic medal chance) 24 years later

Well, his chance is not bad at all. He was in crises in last 5-6 years, but he is back now.
