Things have changed. I no longer see Britain getting enough golds from those sports like Rio. 

well, it's already 12 different sports...if they get 3/4 gold medals in Track Cycling, 2/3 in Rowing and a couple in Taekwondo and Equestrianism + 1 each in all the others, they're already close to 20...;)

Even I don't see Great Britain in top 6. Don't know from where you are giving them chance for a top 4.

If you really see it like that, you are definitely wrong. At the worst they will finish 5th in terms of gold medals. In swimming alone they could win 5 golds. Would be surprising if they win less than 20 golds and there aren’t 6 other nations that could win 20 golds or more.

Not sure how realistic 2 golds for GB in equestrian is ...

On the other hand they should win at least 2 golds in swimming, probably more.

well, it all depends on Judo and women's Wrestling...they could easily win 11/12 gold medals between those 2 sports...

 

and then the 20 Gold medal target is not a dreamy one...add something in Softball, Baseball, Gymnastics, Trampoline, Karate (at least the 2 Kata events), Skateboarding (women's Park is a locked Gold), the 2 men's Race Walking events in Athletics, maybe something in Archery and Sailing (both 470 classes)...

 

I mean, it might be extremely optimistic, but it's not totally out of order (if everything works in their favor)...

I don’t care about the new sports and I don’t count them, so maybe you are right. If we only count the same sports as in 2016, then I absolutely don’t see them winning 20+ golds.

Norway (Warholm and any of Ingebritsen brothers in athletics) and India (shooting) are more than 100% sure to have gold there, imo.

 

I voted also for Bulgaria (weightlifting) and Nigeria (athletics), although there chances for gold are less than in case of India and Norway.

I think I could have added Uganda, Namibia, Ecuador and Burkina Faso to the above list of potential gold medal contenders.

Any ideas on other countries as well?

Actually that's the reason I wanted to have this poll late when we are clear with the competitors. 

 

Ecuador will likely win at least 2 medals this time. If the chinese doesn't enter in 76kg weightlifting, Naisi Dajomes becomes a gold medal favourite with 10kg lead but then don't know how much other's will improve and if she can match her best but yes depends on what china chooses. Clearer picture will come by July 1st week.

    • I read now that Valentina Rodini will be in the new team of Tizzano + Galtarossa and Martini. I was probably in such an information bubble on Instagram that I thought that only Abbagnale was running a campaign and had a team of people around him. That's why I was surprised by his defeat + the fact that, for example, Rodini supports his rival. But as I wrote, for me the change in the general coach position is a plus. We need a new opening and a new impulse: Cattaneo had his best results in Tokyo and then he only explained that his rowers were running away abroad to the USA to study and that's why he had worse results. Ok, except that it's the same in Romania and Greece but they results are comparable or better. It's obvious that no one here will make the UK or the Netherlands, because we don't have such resources and money but I think we can repeat the Romanian results (2 gold - 3 silver in Paris) and that will be a much better result than the 2 silver in this year.
    • Abbagnale boasted that he had 80 per cent a few days before the vote (I still have the screen) and ran again as a result of a power deal. Not a great loss.   I have doubts about the new technical director though, you can't announce him during the congress, brandishing the scalp of the Abbagnale era technical staff (who then, were Crispi's men). Let's hope there are no rifts between the new staff and the athletes, it had to be handled better.
    • I was surprised by Abbagnale's defeat. I thought he was a sure of victory, since he decided to run - I read some source that he didn't know if he would start before Paris 2024. What do you think about it?

    • Cattaneo was good but his peak was in Tokyo 2021. Then there was such stabilization - stagnation. In Paris the result was in line with expectations but without the wow effect. They threw everything that was best into the quadruple sculls and it was enough for a only silver. Now without the lightweight sculls in LA I think that radical changes are needed to remain competitive. Previously there was a 3-year Olympic cycle due to Covid, so big changes weren`t good but now I think the time is right. Although of course more funds are needed for this sport in Italy, because even the best coach will not overcome this vel our men`s alpine skiing sector
    • @Gianlu33 we posted the same (great) news at the same time  
    • Davide Tizzano (1996 Olympic Champion, men's double sculls) is the new President of the Italian Federation, as he defeated the (now former) President Giuseppe Abbagnale by a very small margin (52% to 48%) in last week's federal elections   and he's already at work to make up for the last 8 disappointing years (at least in terms of Olympic success): his first move is bringing back home  Antonio Colamonaci  who made  great in the past 8 years   https://www.oasport.it/2024/11/canottaggio-cambia-la-direzione-tecnica-dellitalia-arriva-il-guru-che-ha-reso-grande-la-romania/   let's see if he can make  great again, now
