Volleyball Qualification for Summer Olympic Games 2016

Alexander Markin was tested positive for Meldonium after the match against Germany at the european qualification tournament, this might mean that Russia wont be allowed to play in Rio, so Germany might get a second chance to qualify and France could qualify directly. 

I hope that it wont happen, Russia didnt win because of one doped player and they deserve to be in Rio. We threw away the Olympics in the match against Poland, so we dont really deserve to be in Rio in my opinion. If they find a second russian player who was doped, then Russia will definitely be suspended.

during the european qualifications it was actually legal, so because of this they can't be definitely suspended

You do deserve the Olympics, just because of the match against Poland and sensational bronze at World Champs. And the anti-doping rules are obvious - if one athlete from the team or in some sports relay is caught, the whole team is disqualified. I don't see the reason why this should be changed.

I do not think that's possible, is it? Anyway, if by chance, accused other players ,Russia should be disqualified.

Really? It became illegal at the start of 2016 and the qualification tournament was in January ... :mumble:

no... what about Sweden and Lativa in ice hockey in 2014?;)

We are among the 8 best teams in the world, so you could say that we deserve to be in Rio, but everything was on our side (home advantage, we were leading against Poland) and we still managed to finish 4th, so this team obviously didnt have the nerves to do it and therefore doesnt deserve Rio in my opinion.

I think the rule is as like that:

1 doping case: IOC has to decide if they want to suspend the team

2 doping cases: The team has to be suspended

Of those eight teams, four were exactly the semifinalists of this European qualifying. So a team would have to be out of the Rio, were unfortunately you.  So, I think your team deserves to be in Rio.

Possible? Yes

Realistic? No

I think our only chance would be if a second russian player will get caught.

Suspending Russia would create tons of problems:

Would Bulgaria be allowed to "replay" the semifinal against Germany?

Would Germany be allowed to "replay" the final against France or would France qualify directly? 

This all would be too complicated, so they will probably change nothing, unless a 2nd player gets caught, then they will be forced to act.

    • Trump will attack Iran soon , maybe tonight   
    • Yep, that was really unfortunate, but well, such things happens. Anyway this amount of lugers is really impressive.   Congrats and good luck at the Games
    • Yeah, Qualifying a team for the summer olympics is completely out of the question. Not going to happen for a long time. In Sydney 2000 we had 3 teams W Basketball, M Football & M Water Polo, it was already insane and this was even in a totally different era. Nowadays it is just Utopian. We have none to be at a high level in Europe to aspire for a qualification to the Olympics.   W Handball is really the most obvious chance in a long shot. The U17 girls showed last summer that it is possible, who knows maybe in Brisbane if the planets allign well.    Paris 2024 was a nightmare I do not want to remember. The worst games I experienced in my life. point.
    • Khm, do we know the fate of the  license in pairs? I did not see confirmation of their entry.   If they fail  must get full license (team + individual) and one more place for team event will be available, am I correct?
    • Honestly, we did not expect more than 8. 2 additional places happened just becaues your double could not grab it due to the injury(?).
    • Vivat Slovakia    But in all seriousness, it's been repeatedly stated how important it is to qualify in a team event for the next Summer Olympics. However, I have no idea if we even have a realistic chance.   We only have one fewer individual athlete competing this year than we did in Paris, so individual quota spots aren't the main issue. Where can we find a competitive team, like we do in hockey? Maybe the women's handball team could start something big, but that's still far in the future, very likely unachievable in just two years.   And to be clear, as horrific as our medal tally from Paris looked, those were some of the unluckiest Olympics for Slovakia I have ever seen. Finishing in the top six seven times (!) is absolutely insane.
    • Biathlon (6 - 2W; 4M)   Anastasia Tolmacheva Andreea Mezdrea (our media put her in)   George Buta Raul Flore Dmitri Shamaev George Coltea   Bobsleigh (4M + 1 reserve)   Constantin Dinescu George Iordache Mihai Păcioianu Mihai Tentea     Figure Skating (1W)   Julia Sauter - flag bearer       Luge (7 - 3W; 4M)   Corina Buzatoiu Carmen Manolescu Raluca Stramaturaru   Denis Serban Marian Gîtlan Eduard Craciun Valentin Cretu     Ski Jumping (4 - 2W; 2M)   Delia Floea Daniela Haralambie   Daniel Cacina Mihnea Spulber   Alpine skiing (2 - 1W; 1M)   Sofia Moldovan   Alexandru Stefanescu   Nordic skiing (3 - 1W; 2M)   Delia Reit   Paul Pepene Gabriel Cojocaru   Snowboard (2W)   Kata Mandel Henrietta Bartalis   For me it’s a very special edition because two of my friends (Edi Craciun and Gabi Cojocaru) made it. So fingers crossed for them and for the whole delegation.   We don’t expect to much as usual in winter games (1-2 top 10 - luge team, women’s doubles luge, 2man bobsleigh, and maybe Julia Sauter if she will skate clean both programs)
