If being realistic, surely you didn't expect much more than 1-2 medals..? Or do you mean something like us and our swimming? --> in Rio we didn't expect more than 1 medal or so, which looking at past years just shows how much of a mess our swimming has become  

 

1 medal in men's, the eights and lightweight double. So 1/3

5th place for our eight, great

Our Olympic committee is appealing over the photo finish in men's single sculls.

 

Also, accoring to FISA's own rulebook, Drysdale and Martin should have both won gold apparently.

I really hope he gets the decision and gets a ceremony for his gold medal if it goes his way

That would be cool

 

Rulebook apparently says that dead heat happens when two or more boats cross the finish line in the same time. Hundredths of a second are used as time reference and everything within one hundredth is declared as dead heat. In case of dead heat all sides get same placing.

 

They also found an example from World junior championships when that rule was applied and two medals of the same color were handed,

He has a great case then both morally and in terms of the rules
