Start Lists confirmed https://triathlon.org/events/start_list/2020_tokyo_olympic_games/501764

 

Slovakia finished 1st under the qualifying line in both M & W events. Funny and sad at the same time, but certainly a unique and rare situation :lol:

There's still about a week for athletes to become injured :p

such is the sport, it is as it is. sometimes it bring joy and positive emotions, sometimes not...what can we do, it happened, we won't do anything about that anymore.

 

But the one thing that irritates me the most is South Africa, which nominated Richard Murray, who underwent heart surgery two weeks ago and will definitely not be able to start. I will not buy that he will try blah blah.. it was only on purpose just so they can field a stupid mixed relay and nominate him to the anchor leg when they are certain he will not have to compete since their relay will be lapped before. In this way, they will have another column in the start lists with Mixed relay, but they took the place from a competitor who actually can compete. I still can not believe Richard Varga will miss the games, the best swimmer in the circuit, because of one stupid mistake...

 

nah, let it be. Hockey quota for Beijing will be more important :lol:

In term of quotas one single hockey team is about a quarter of all the athletes competing in Triathlon :P

    • Of the top teams the world with traditions, only Portugal didn`t play in 3 World Cups in a row: 1986-2002 (1990, 1994 and 1998), but then fewer teams played in the World Cup than now. I don't really remember what caused the crisis in Portuguese football in the 1990s or how it was done with this later? Perhaps we should follow their example?
    • Well... If not qualifying for the World Cup for the third consecutive time isn't enough to bring about change in Italy, I can't imagine what will be.
    • Gravina is simply stupid and probably has some kind of hold over other important key figures in Italian football, since he was elected in 2024 with a majority of over 90% of the votes... I have a hard time imagining it any other way. Compared to him, even Carraro, Berlusconi and Moggi seem like nice and kind gentlemens   Some people believe that Calciopoli in 2006 began the decline of Italian football and that may be true. It only got worse from there, not counting a single accidental Euro 2021 win- something similar to Greece in 2004. In 2009 Roberto Baggio prepared a 900-page report on necessary reforms in Italian football, but the then-FIGC board tossed it into the trash bin. Now we see the consequences...
    • I thought our former football President was greedy, selfish, power hungry and delusional, but apparently he has an equal counterpart in Gravina. Some people just lack common decency. 
    • Well, it's possible that Italians may be more bitter towards short track officials after the robbery they perpetrated against Sighel at the Olympics and therefore more willing to comment and criticize them, but it doesn't make the decision any less ridiculous.   Also, the fact we are Italians, and therefore used to the low standards of football refereeing, makes us especially qualified and trained to identify biased/crooked/incompetent judging 
    • I think it was never in the history of our sport has there been anyone as brazen and stupid as Gravina. Before presidents would resign, or at least hide for a while, rather than go into a full-blow scandalous attitude with full larrogance and pride. I hope this idiot gets fired anyway, even if he doesn't resign.
