Oh, didn't notice that. 

 

I predict there will be at least two different winners this time.

I won't say! :p but here are my points of view individually:

 

-Germany is a bit stronger than in Tokyo.

-Argentina is a bit stronger too.

-GB is stronger.

-India is weaker.

-Belgium is weaker.

-Spain is stronger.

-Netherlands is pretty much the same level.

-Australia is weaker.

 

Overall this is a much more open tournament compared to Tokyo when Belgium v Australia was the obvious final beforehand. I can see any of these teams taking medals.

Coming into the Olympics, I definitely thought India was weaker than in Tokyo. However the hockey we've produced has been of a very high quality so far. Our passing, use of aerials and defensive structure seems much better overall, even though a bit of the attacking flair/effectiveness has gone down. 

Anyhow, here are my predictions for the knockouts: 

Germany vs Argentina: Germany win

Great Britain vs India: India win

Netherlands vs Australia: Netherlands win

Spain vs Belgium: Belgium win 

 

Germany vs India: India win 

Netherlands vs Belgium: Belgium win

 

Germany vs Netherlands: Netherlands win

Belgium vs India: Belgium win

 

🥇 Belgium 

🥈 India

🥉 Netherlands

Netherlands vs Australia: Netherlands Win

Spain vs Belgium: Belgium Win

After many disappointing tournaments, it's nice to see the GB men on much better form, Bronze would be lovely and my prediction is loaded with hope and optimism. Can't wait for tomorrow!!!

I’m dangerously close to being right in my prediction…

    • go to DOGE.gov and see what they found until now, it's a lot, but i understand that his haters are trying to devalue his work
    • Most of what he’s done so far is cancel the only thing that was keeping George W Bush out of hell.
    • As someone who lived for 20 years in California, and can't leave this place even though i'm doing very well here, i have nothing good to say about them. And the next governor will be worse then the current one
    • Yea the thiefs are mad that they were caught and unleashed the braindead crowd. He is very effective, look at all he did until now! finding crazy expenses that there was no reason to give, like a lot of the USAID expenses, and sure it wouldn't be a lot, but his goal is finding 1 trillion dollars of waste, and he is well on his way to do it. Any waste if important to kill, even if it's something relatively small comparing to the total government budget  
    • Please don’t make me defend the California state government. I have very few nice things to say about how that state is run xD   I live in Washington State and not in California for a reason…
    • you might be right, but  it's getting really ridiculous that house races in California were not called for a month because they keep on chasing people to get a proper signature, 
    • Musk isn’t finding fraud and waste in the government, and certainly nobody who is protesting him believes that DOGE is in any way effective at their stated mission, so nobody is mad at him for doing that.
    • It might be small, but it's still happening, and for what? for finding fraud and waste on a governmental level? and that's why you're protesting a car that was much more popular for democrats then republicans? (i might have one but i didn't know anyone else who does)   There are a lot of people who maybe not fire bombing tesla's, but are keying them and causing damage to them.    Funny, i don't remember vandalizing a bud light factory
    • It might be a hot take but I actually think having stricter voter ID laws would be good for Democrats under the current political alignment. Dems benefit from lower turnout, so the more hoops there are to vote the better it is for them.   Kind of a fascinating reversal from how it was pre-Trump, where lower turnout benefited Republicans.
    • Oh yea off course the left will win again, though if they keep on trending left and listening to the aoc's, sanders and crockett's of the world it will be tougher and tougher, also if they can finally create better federal election laws it will also make it much harder.   However i do recognize that Trump is a once in a lifetime politician that is able to bring out the people like no one else, and i have fears that Vance or Desantis wouldn't be able to do it in 4 years, that's why i'm enjoying what happens now, and the next 4 years
