I'm the only one who finds this Qualification Process really unfair??

 

Right now :FRA:RUS:IRL:GBR:ESP are placed 5th to 9th in the 2018 World Series with means that at least 3 out of those teams would be out of the Games, instead worst teams like :MEX:BRA:FIJ and :CHN have almost secured a place in the Games.

 

OIf just they did continental qualification before World Series, Olympics would have better teams, something like (as right now)

 

:JPN as host :NZL:CAN:FRA:CHN:KEN:BRA from continental, :AUS:USA:RUS:IRL via world series and a battle between probably :GBR:FIJ and :ESP at the preolympic

 

Instead of: 

 

:JPN as host, :NZL:CAN:USA:AUS via world series, :FIJ:MEX:FRA:CHN:KEN:BRA from continental spots and have :RUS:IRL:GBR and :ESP battle at the last preolympic..................

I've been thinking about it... The Olympic tournament will actually be much weaker than the world series ones 

The current ranking would be disastrous for European sides since I think that the barrages only include two teams from each continent! So we would have Ireland and Spain out before the last round with GB and Russia going against sides like Jamaica or Kazhakstan in an unofficial duel

Rugby 7s is just a sport in which it is more evident than in other that Olympic tournaments should be made of 16 teams, rather than 12 or 8

If Canada and USA qualify as top 4, Mexico doesn't auto qualify. The North American spot is added to the reoechage.

Yes?

I think there's a qualification event for North Americans that Mexico would easily won against Jamaica and Trinidad and Tobago

The NA qualification tournament will only be held if either or both Canada and the USA fail to qualify among the top 4.

Oh, I never hear about that rule, with actually sounds pretty unfair too, by the way, but it would make for more decent teams at the Olympics...

 

if they held the South American Qualification Tournament were all teams are even worse than Mexico...

    • 2 things...   first, for what concerns the cooperation between inline skating and speedskating federations...sorry to disppoint some of you, but there's a great cooperation between them   the point is that many "summer" skaters just don't want to try the ice because they have too much to give up for that   you name places like Collalbo or Baselga, but for the "summer skating" guys from centeral and southern regions it's not an option, it's not that they make it for a living with those disciplines, they have to focus on their studies and build a post-competitive sport career and they just can't place themselves into a hole in the mountains when they maybe are studying in some prestigious universities in the big cities   as I already posted more than once, the idea of covering one of those tracks in the mountains was something idiotic, a political concession impossible to be sustained   the one and only chance to build a true legacy and an efficient, attractive national training center was to build a permanent indoor oval in Milan, beside the Forum   that would have given all the "summer skaters" a true opportunity to try the ice experience and at the same time find the most useful, attractive, prestigious places to continue their studies and try and manage them together with their sports career   any other place wouldn't stand a chance   second...don't give Salvini any credit he doesn't deserve...actually, I think he doesn't even know that in Cortina there's a sliding sports track    it's not thanks to him that the Cortina track's building finally went underway 
    • c'mon, guys! relax! sciallatevi un po'!    you're making me sick...it's just the season start and this is a sport where only the world championship (and Olympic, in the specific years) medals count   don't get mad for a couple of races held thousend miles away from home after the team had already passed their first climax (the internal selection)...there are still 2 full seasons before the Olympics
    • Super Round Results   21/11    b.   2-0  b.   9-1   22/11    b.   8-2  b.   9-6   nothing is decided yet, all teams still have a thoretical chance to make the Gold Medal match   Tomorrow, the last day of the Super Round sees  facing the  at Noon local time (4 a.m. CET) and  facing  at 7 p.m. local time (11 a.m. CET)   the medal games are scheduled for Sunday, BMM at Noon local, GMM at 7 p.m. local
    • very poor performance by the US bullpen both Yesterday and Today    not very impressed by this US team for the entire tournament, also in the Mexican first group (Panama deserved to qualify more than them, but they were lucky with the draw and won the decisive direct matchup)   Venezuela confirmed themselves as a very strong team at bat, but with too many troubles on the mound   Today against Japan they had to make a pitching change already in the 1st inning and basically they had to go for a bullpen game, but it didn't come out like the Dodgers'   Japan always on top of their game, even when the pitching staff doesn't perform at best...frankly, they look more and more unbeatable when no MLB superstar is involved (like in this case), but also when it comes down to the top of the pops it's not that they look worse (see 2023 WBC)  there's a serious risk that their domination becomes even too easy, the gap between them and the rest of the world is widening year after year   Taiwan might look like a surprise, but after the 2023 fail, I was sure they were going to rebound and establish themselves among the top teams in the WBSC tournaments, as they are very good in each and every aspect of the game (batting, pitching...maybe a bit less on defense, but you can't have it all)
