  1. This stems from Canada being good, but not great in many sports so while for other countries they pick up their medals from their strength, Canada's top performance distribution more resembles a bell curve with a peak at around fourth.
  2. A lot higher than you think given the population of the country
  3. Not always, the combined time of finals for Dressel/Jacoby was faster than Weitzeil/Andrew (though just barely)
  4. with another medal, will it be gold or silver?
  5. I guess the combined time for woman breast+man free was less than man breast+women free
  6. The difference is that there isn't a separate men's/women's relay in triathlon so at least it isn't as useless as the athletics/swimming relays. Regardless I don't think the event is necessary because you are essentially forcing standard race triathletes to compete in a sprint triathlon (though there's a lot of overlap)
  7. Hopefully they can put the loss behind them and go for bronze. Two medals in one Olympics for Fiji would be massive
  8. So close for Fiji, they are having the tournament of their life.
  9. Not really, the three combined are still behind Australia. With a 1:07.xx breast, the United States will pass us, but we are favoured for bronze and hold about a 1.5 second lead over the rest of the field.
  10. still in the hunt going into the last set
  11. Too bad we don't have a top breaststroke swimmer, could have been a threat for gold...
  12. Awesome silver for Masse, crushed her national record
  13. I mean relays in any sport is essentially a test of a nation's depth so it makes sense that big nations medal.
  14. Looks like the Rugby 7s coach who made those comments has been fired.
  15. Sounds like damage control
  16. Based on the comments by some of the coaches/management there clearly is some tension between the women and the people who run the program. It might be time to clean house...
  17. Day 8 looks to be a quiet day for Canada, with a decent chance that Canada finishes the day without a medal, the first since the end of Day 1. Our best chance for a medal likely comes in swimming (women's 200m backstroke) while weightlifting (men's -96kg) and archery (men's individual) also have a chance.
  18. The NOCs with a smaller population than San Marino British Virgin Islands may make an attempt to claim that title in athletics so the title of world's smallest Olympic medaling nation may not last too long...
  19. It wasn't a good day for Canada, even against Brazil they were slow to start. Regardless we risk either being eliminated or playing New Zealand in the quarters.
  20. Canada looks to rebound in Day 7 with medal opportunities in athletics (men's 10000m), rowing (women's eight), swimming (women's 100m freestyle) and trampoline (women's individual).
  21. With a chance at reaching the semis. On paper isn't that much better than or that Cordon already defeated. Of course, Heo did come off a win against the number 1 ranked athlete plus he'll have more rest.
  22. Very excited for huge opportunity for him
  23. Day 5 was a relatively quiet day which saw Canada still win one medal. Day 6 has medal chances in judo (men's -100kg), rowing (men's pair and women's pair) and swimming (women's 4x200m freestyle relay). I'd also keep an eye on fencing (women's team foil), France is definitely beatable and while any of the other semi-finalists would be a long-shot, having an opportunity for the upset could result in a shocking medal.
  24. Weird, they usually are on (relatively) good terms like in field hockey.
