  1. 1. Rate the performance on a scale of 1-10 7/10 Many medals but not so much gold, we could expect more as a host nation. 2. What were the surprises and heartbreaks ? Surprises: Joan-Benjamin Gaba being silver medalist in Judo -73kg. In mixed team final, when France was losing 3-1 against Japan he won against Hifumi Abe allowing France to ultimately win the gold medal. Basket 3x3 men very close to win the gold medal Teams playing well starting from the quarter finals while being deceptive in the stage groups : basket men, basket women, basket 3x3 men, volley men, and even handball men (even if they lose in quarter final after a stupid error). Heartbreaks: Triathlon relay, one of best chances of gold medal. Pierre Le Corre is dragged into the fall of Hayden Wilde and lost all chances of medal after a mechanic problem. Women gymnastic that was unable to make a single final while they were third at last world championship. No final for women judo (Dicko, Agbegnenou, Malonga...). No medal in fencing for men’s epee team and women’s sabre team. Basket 3x3 women finishing last while they were among the favorites. 3.Was your country's goal achieved? The Top 5 was expected, but it was very tight. 4. Which are the sports that will be invested more in future? If we want to have athletes in LA we need to invest in sports that almost doesn’t exist in France : Baseball/softball, flag football, cricket and Lacrosse 5. Who could be some the potential star for your country in LA? Léon Marchand of course. Félix Lebrun in Table Tennis. Teddy Riner will perhaps still be there.
  2. Really ? There's people that take seriously the fact that there's risk of sickness by bathing in the Seine ? Moreover for athletes ? When the heath authorities put a limit for things like e-coli they study when the people start to show signs of sickness for most fragiles and divide by ten for security. Can you give the name of the athletes in hospital that did not excuse of accusing water quality because they were in fact infected by covid ?
  3. Et voilà, avec les 3 médailles assurées pour la boxe et la médaille pour le judo par équipe on est déjà assuré de battre le record de 43 médailles à Beijing.
  4. Aujourd’hui pourrait être le jour des français avec beaucoup de possibilité de médailles : - Judo (Riner & Dicko) - Escrime (épée par équipe) - BMX racing (Daudet, Mahieu et André) - Natation (Marchand & Manaudou) - Voile (Steyaert-Picon) Et pourquoi pas une médaille surprise (Jumping par équipe, planche à voile F, BMX racing F, Trampoline) ? Vous avez un pronostic ?
  5. I can’t forget the end of the women final of the world championship 2003 Sorry
  6. Same opinion here. Rugby is only 10th by number of registered members (a bit more than 300 000) but far more broadcasted on television.
  7. In France Handball is the 6th most popular sport (after football, tennis, equestrian, basketball and judo) with more than 450 000 registered members. I’m sure it’s not the same in UK.
  8. More of what happened 2 weeks ago when the players of the final or copa America were singing racist songs about the french football team
  9. Thank you. And yes you can really speak about home Olympics since I live at less than 60m of one of the Olympics stadiums according to Google Map
  10. I think we can also add Mkheidze in men’s judo, Giraud and perhaps Milou in men’s street, and the men’s sabre members.
  11. L'équipe annonce 90 (je ne sais pas si la différence vient des remplaçants) : https://www.lequipe.fr/Jo-2024-paris/Athletisme/Actualites/90-athletes-selectionnes-pour-les-jo-de-paris-2024/1480716
