Atlanta mark 2 I suspect.

It's only Day 2, once one person wins a medal the rest will follow suit.

True but with some favourites slipping up a few surprise medals are needed.

GB not looking as strong in the swimming as the Europeans teased they would be. Not sure they will get that close to the 6 medals of last time.  Again another sport that will find keeping funding hard with pressure to spend more of the money on public swimming rather than elite.

Horrible defeat for Sinden.cLet’s hope tomorrow we win a gold or two.

 

I still think the target of 45 medals is not going to be anyway near being achieved and it’s more about trying to beat the 28 and 30 of Sydney and Athens (and trying maybe to beat the 11 and 9 golds of those games. Uk Sport should be honest with the public if they want any hope of not finding a sudden funding cut being announced this autumn.

When is it time to start worrying? Is it now?

If by next Sunday the medal total is Atlanta with little chance of making Athens or Sydney. 
 

Eurosport’s commentators were pretty disappointed at the failure to make the relay final. Feels like for the others finals the best will have to be used in the heats or face serious questions about strategy.

    • In fact, according to some first-hand reports, female athletes mutinied protesting Maccarani's dismissal. And even Raffaelli denied the interceptions, speaking of a very good relationship with Cantaluppi and denying training with humiliating punishments, such as staying in their underwear.   A system of omertà and rotten from head to toe.
    • I also experienced the same issues with other websites in the past 2 years (one was non the less than mlb.tv, which I could reach only behind an Italian vpn for months 2 years ago)   it came out that here it was connected to the fucking anti-piracy shield of the Italian government (despite I'm not using any pirate website, only free or paid official ones), with some providers having a lot of their subnet addresses completely blocked because of one signaled violation within their CDN   however, I don't think it's the same kind of issue in  of course   the only advice I can give, it's to try and connect under a vpn (even of your own Country, but still under a vpn)   normally this overcomes all kinds of blocks at any level, intentional or unintentional   and if a home broadband connection doesn't work, always try the data connection of your smartphone (if you have one) before starting to seriously worry

    • it's always all about the "USSR-alike" methods used by the coaching duo Maccarani/Tishina at their National Academy   now some leaked phone calls have shown the former Federation's president commenting on the girls with sexist expressions and things like that   moreover, it's been discovered that also Raffaeli and Baldassari were treated like the team by their coach Julieta Cantalupi, forced to get naked in public after missing some exercise in training or kept for hours closed in a dark and cold small room in punishment after a not satisfactory training section   basically, all the Italian stars of the Rhythmic Gymnastics have come to success only after and possibly because of unacceptable humiliation by the coaches, which looks to be the usual attitude also among the youngsters and the "amateur" clubs   Italian Rhythmic Gymnastics is a dirty, sick world     now the Group is basically not active and doesn't go to the next world cup stages, Baldassarri has retired and Raffaeli looks to be happy with her new coach (the Goddess herself, Claudia Mancinelli) after Cantalupi ran away like a rabbit to Israel in Autumn 2023 after the first rumors about the scandals came out
