Ah eu acredito que até os ouros possam ser mais em relação a Londres. Mas o número de medalhas ando bem pessimista, deve ser abaixo do esperado. Se bobear, na linha de Londres 2012. Esportes coletivos acredito que vai melhorar, os dois gêneros no vôlei, vôlei de praia e futebol, o hand feminino e até o polo aquático masculino, acredito que possam levar alguma coisa.

From our medalists:

  • Ágatha and Barbara (Beach Volleyball) have announced they won't play together anymore (Barbara already has a new partner, it seems).
  • At least for now, Martine Grael/Kahena Kunze (Sailing) don't have plans for the next Olympics cycle and won't compete this season anymore.
  • I'm thinking Robson Conceição will probably move to professional Boxing just like our 2012 medalists.
  • From Judo, I'm thinking this was Rafael Silva's last Games, but I might be wrong. I just hope Mayra Aguiar doesn't move to MMA like rumours are saying.
  • Diego Hypólito (Gymnastics) says he will try to compete in 2020, but for how long he can keep being a valuable adition to the team competing in only 1 apparatus (same for Zanetti, but he's younger than Hypólito).

 

Overall, I think we will have a lot of new names medaling in 2020, many athletes even extended their careers just to compete at home, so we'll see huge changes in next cycle, especially in team sports (Women's Volleyball worries me the most, now that the "golden age" is over).

The artistic gymnastics program will change completely from 2020 on. Each team will be composed of 4 all-arounders and up to 2 extra gymnasts can try to qualify as specialists through the World Cup circuit. Hypólito and Zanetti could easily qualify as specialists, while the team could keep focus on four strong all-arounders. This even gives Daniele Hypólito a chance to qualify for her sixth Olympics, though I pray for the Gods she decides to retire before then.

 

Our best female gymnasts, Flávia and Rebeca, are the top 2 all-arounders of Brazil right now. Thais Fidélis and Fabiane Valentin are promising junior gymnasts, while Lorrane Santos and Julie Kim are young and talented gymnasts who could try to qualify as specialists. Overall, the chance will be very good to the women's team. I'm not so sure about the men's team, though. Mariano could drop all-around entirely and focus on floor, Ângelo Assumpção is a promising gymnast but he's not so good as an all-arounder, Barreto will probably not make it to 2020, and Sasaki will probably not be in his better shape. Besides Ângelo, the best promising gymnast for the future is Caio Souza (bronze medal at the 2015 Pan American Games), but we need more strong all-arounders if we want to qualify a full team again.

Yes, if there's a possibility, I'm sure Zanetti and Hypólito will try to qualify as "specialists". Probably won't win medals, but who knows. Even though we only won medals in the Men's side, the Women's team looks better for 2020 with the new names arriving.

Looking back at my predictions, it didn't went so bad as I thought. I predicted 24 medals, we won 19, but more golds than I thought (7 vs. 5). Predicted 10 out of 19 medals, which was kinda bad. Correctly predicted the color of 5 medals (Alison Cerutti/Bruno Schmidt, Martine Grael/Kahena Kunze, Men's Volleyball, Isaquias Queiroz, Mayra Aguiar), which also wasn't great.

 

I predicted some "bold" things like a gold for our Men's Volleyball team + not even a final for the Women's team (predicted bronze, which would be much better than the 5th place we got). Also predicted Women's Beach Volleyball losing in the final, although it was the wrong pair.

We lost four medals that we had thought it would be impossible to lose: Women's Pole Vault, Women's Handball, Women's Judo (Érika Miranda) and Women's indoor Volleyball. As the Games progressed, we lost huge opportunities in Women's Football, Women's Artistic Gymnastics (two medals) and a bronze medal in Women's Beach Volleyball. Brazilian women had a bad year overall. Only Rafaela and Martine/Kahena were able to get a gold medal. Disappointing.

Yes, things were pretty bad in the Women's side, especially in team sports.

 

For the Men's teams, no complaints. It's crazy that we won the trio "Football + Beach Volleyball + Volleyball", as opposed to only 1 silver medal (Beach Volleyball) in Women's.

    • Some of the small nations have competed in the past but usually lost 30-0 to the Aussies
    • Officials persons (include Head) of RLF are still in ban. For example, Vaelbe has spoken even more terrible words but, however, CAS obliged to gave them AIN status. And it's the same situation here - FIL must to implement CAS's decision. But it's not clearly FIL's criterias for AIN status and that too strange
    • For Modern Pentathlon, it's interesting that Africa only gets one continental championship spot, considering how well Egypt does in the event.  (But then again, it's max 2 athletes per NOC per gender.)  Presuming that an Egyptian wins the African CCh, I suppose their performance in the other major competitions will allow the second competitor to come through.
    • Statement from the president of the russian Luge federation (yesterday): "Our team is in Kazakhstan and is preparing to apply for U.S. visas. We are setting an example for our entire country, especially for the younger generation. They see that a difficult path is not a reason to give up. It teaches perseverance. In this perseverance lies our shared strength, our mission to millions of young people for whom sports are a guiding point and a shining star. I believe in our country, in our strong-spirited guys. I sincerely love and respect our president, Vladimir Putin. He is the best president in the world. May God grant him strength and good health."   Do they deserve neutral status?
    • I did not think it would happen again but... I created similar post for Paris - 2024 https://totallympics.com/forums/topic/27489-ain-athletes-qualification-for-paris-2024-olympic-games-and-reallocation-of-quotas-post1-updated-1507/#comments  I was not sure if that reallocations would really happen but the reality was even more serious than the expectations. According to this research 43% of the neutral statuses issued by the IFs were fake AIN  - https://razom22.com/neutrality-research/  And the figures are based on the IOC decisions - not on the evaluations by Ukrainian NOC or sport ministry. Right now the situation is absolutely unclear. As usually )) Some notes: 1. Russians will not reject quotas for 2026 as they did for 2024 in judo and wrestling. 2. AINERP may be more loyal to russians due to the new member - Watanabe. His federation issued AIN status to Melnikova who took part in the primaries of the russian ruling party, had phots with Z and e .t.c. 3. I do not expect a lot of reallocations becaues of the total small number of the rus/blr athletes in qualification events right now. 4. BUT, even with these small numbers we see that FIS allowed to compete several incompliant persons.        Short notes from the IOC statement before Paris - 2024:   1. IOC`s decisions to reject quotas are final. 2. IOC`s decisions to approve quotas are not final - new facts may lead to the rejection of invitation. 3. IOC`s decisions cannot be appealed - NOCs were not invited to the Games, so it is a good will to invite individual athletes... or not   russians Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Adeliia PETROSIAN Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC Figure skating Petr GUMENNIK Men's singles Davide Lewton Brain Confirmed by IOC belorussians     Sports Athlete(s) Discipline Possible Reallocation NOC IOC Decision + IF reallocation if happened Figure skating Viktoriya SAFONOVA Women's singles Stefania Yakovleva Confirmed by IOC  
    • I would say they will not be eligible. But it realy abotut the wording every federation has in its papers. World Aquatics changes their policies several times (especially after Mazepin "solved the issues" persoanlly - as witnessed one russian Olympic champion)   Inoirtnat notes on FIS decisions:   FIS points are frozen for ruissns and belorussians - so the situation is not so complicated for a lot of them. The list of the AIN`s is not final as the list from ISU was. It means that persons mau be not only removed from the list but added as well. I expect russians to try some freestyle applications before the stage in China, for example. FIS has not problems with the deny of visa or entris by the host countries. So they kept the possibility to close the doors for the russians for all the countries as ICF did. No sanctions for this, no removing events from the Olympic qualification list, no host changes,   * * * * * Here is the the relevant extract from FIS papers for Aerials tram event. What do you think?
