KingKunta 11 Posted August 9 #141 Share Posted August 9 Yeah Japan just got a breaking gold and about to grab a wrestling gold as well so go two golds ahead on the table and still have a lot of wrestling chances to come. Don’t tell a certain somebody but I think we will come 6th on the table. Olympicsnell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epic Failure 355 Posted August 9 #143 Share Posted August 9 Sad to see Megan so obviously off form in the 10k, but well done to her for keeping going when the easier thing would have been to just DNF. And fair play to Eilish for comforting her. G-ann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely 7th, the dutch get levreysen to go level with us and then they need one more from somwehere Italy need 3, women's volleyball they are in the final of if they can find two more thats 8th And yes, i believe this does matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussB 189 Posted August 9 #147 Share Posted August 9 In all seriousness - Emma will be in the mix in the sprint; 2 taekwondo fighters have chances; both 400m relays will be in the mix (men’s may be able to hang in the gold fight); women’s pentathlons; outside chances in the artistic swimming / diving / men’s pentathlon / men’s Keirin. was speaking to French fans today and they say sentiment is very similar to GB. The gold run has dried up for them too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree they are all chances thats all toby roberts was and he stepped up brilliantly, but none that i can confidently hang my hat on. One gold will be enough for 6th....you'd hope with the number of silver we have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also need more out of Sam on leg 1 (he split a 45.68 when he split a 45 flat for Both legs earlier in the mixed) Emma best chance of gold for the remainder but like I said the taekwondo fighters could deliver and I still have faith in Kate French. Think she will be in the shakeup. Olympicsnell 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
