Yes, of course, the difference is small.   Also, they play next week.

How often have you watched our men’s team play? Just saying…

Every now and then, but what does that have to do with anything? Their record speaks for themselves.

The only teams that can realistically win a medal are :BRA:FRA:ITA:JPN:POL:USA. Maybe :SLO with a lot of luck. I don't think :ARG:CAN:GER & :SRB have enough.

Brazil? :mumble::lol:
 

Edit: OK… maybe you’re right on that
 

Slovenia are realistic medal contenders IMO (although I’d agree that they’re a tier below, but I don’t think the gap is as big as you), and I think US should be a tier below Slovenia with Muagututia on their team. Germany (who have rested Krick and Grozer a lot) might be an outside chance, but they’ll need a lot of luck. 
 

And as for Canada, we’ll see…

It’s not only about the record, but about their level of play, through not only here but the Olympic Qualifiers. Actually I might have been overreacting about the Japan game today, just disappointed.

:BRA take set 1 over :POL 25-18 :facepalm:

 

Maybe switch some of the players for the start of set 2 :rolleyes::mumble: (Bednorz in?)


Edit: Nope :(

Brazil and USA certainly a step below. 

 

Slovenia... I don't think they are clutch in big games but with such strong record in VNL I can't write them off.

 

Germany was great in the OQT but winning a medal with such mid team and an ancient star would be asking too much.

Honestly, with the exception of Poland I don't see any team doing anything special that we can't win.

I haven’t watched any of their matches besides the one against (Canada), but judging by their 6-6 record, wouldn’t you say they’re in bad form? :d (and we’re only a month out from the Olympics)
 

Of course like I said earlier, records aren’t always a good indicator of how well a team is playing…

 

Actually, Brazil is playing quite well today, but maybe that’s because they’ve made a whole of improvements since then.

We rotate our players in every match. I think this team that is playing against Polonia has only played against Cuba and Italy.

And I also think that Poland and Italy have had enough terrible experiences with favoritism to look down on teams like Brazil and the USA.

      is having its general election today.   In a big turnaround, the Liberals lead by Mark Carney are now ahead in the polls, after having been over 20 points behind as recently as December. This is mostly credited to the resignation of Justin Trudeau and America's on and off trade war, along with comments Donald Trump made about Canada becoming the 51st state.   While the Liberals are favoured to win a fourth consecutive election, there is a lot of uncertainty around whether it will be a majority or a minority government. There is also an outside chance of the Conservatives, lead by Piere Poilievre, will form a minority government.

      Ukraine has made progress recently and lost yesterday on penalties to the UK, but that still doesn't explain why the Italian team isn't making any progress. We are sitting in a lower division for 3 years and that's with a ban for Rus and Blr. New and great coaches are being brought in and it's not giving any results. 8-10 years ago we were regularly playing in the highest division, every 2 years and that was with a much stronger teams (Russia and Belarus were there). I don't know where the problem is.

      Many things, probably they thought it is already over and the win will come itself... but also Nitra improved their play a lot, they outplayed us in physicality in the last 2 games, they won almost every duel. Was hard to watch. Anyway I am still persuated we will finish the job at home with success on Tuesday

      If you look at their results this season and on the Super Series, it’s not really that surprising.    I’d consider them to be medal contenders.

      At one point it seemed we were making good progress in this sport, but in the past 1-2 years things seem to have hit a standstill..   Ivaylo Ivanov is still our only elite judoka, but he is passing 30. There were/are some promising youngsters, but they haven't been able to make a jump to the senior level. At this Euro we barely had any first round wins (not including Ivanov). In fencing and taekwondo the results are much more visible for us.

      yes, but that's only an (important) episode... I mean, what's up with your team more in general...it looks like they got the classic "fear to win", they're not as brilliant as they were in the early games of the series
