My English must have definitely improved . I meant that any result worse than Torino2006 would be a bad result 

The worst editions in XXI century for us were Vancouver: 5 medals (only 1 gold for Razzoli's on the penultimate day) and Sochi: 8 medals (but no gold). Turin was already a prelude to this bad period, although the number of gold medals was ok. Overall we won fewer medals at home than in 2002 and this was probably the only case in the 21st century when the host country won fewer medals at home than 4 years earlier, either in summer or winter. In general the years 2008-2016 were very bad in our sport, both in summer and winter. Only 2018 in Korea was a slight rebuild + 2 fantastic summer editions in Tokyo and Paris. in Beijing 2022 we won a lot of medals - 17 but only 2 gold (If it weren't for Gogga's injury, I think it would have been 4 gold).

For Poland - 2026 worse than 2006.

 

In 2006 we had 2 medals, in 2026 we will probably get zero. Or one lucky medal in short track (Bradbury style), speed skating 500m event (but only one race in this event so it will be pure luck) or snowboard parallel GS. Don't believe in ski jumping medal at all.
