The Sinkovec brothers aren't as good as they were anymore or what?

OlympicsFan 783 Posted July 28, 2021 #279 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I think Germany (and probably Ireland) would have been good enough to fight for a medal in double sculls?

German rowing has been declining for a long time now, 6 medals should be the absolute minimum for the importance of rowing, the funding they receive and the population size. There is no excuse for Germany to win less medals than Australia or the Netherlands.
