  1. I wonder how healthy for the sport the Chinese totals dominance is.
  2. An excellent result for him. Best field result for a GB athlete this games surely. Kerr and hopefully Hudson - Smith might be only GB men better than him. Better than any GB man in the field in Tokyo as well.
  3. Doping as a whole seems to help women more. The Chinese in the 1990’s in both swimming and Athletics. Eastern European doped women dominated sports in the 1980’s more than men.
  4. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/article/2024/aug/05/one-and-done-michael-phelps-says-dopers-should-be-given-lifetime-ban https://www.telegraph.co.uk/olympics/2024/08/06/china-doping-complaints-michael-phelps-calls-for-life-bans/

  6. The medal target is 50-70 plus top 5. Over 60 would be a good performance and pretty much on track with the last three games. The gold drop off is an issue throigh. Being beaten by Australia will surely raise some eyebrows in particular because of their size,
  7. Will we have the bigger imbalance of Golds vs Total Medals than the USA?
  8. It need a system like Takewondo or Judo without judges,
  9. I’m not sure it will the IOC will be worried about the fact multiple countries won their only medal/s in the sport and that all the new sports both there and in Brisbane favour countries who already do well in other sports.
  10. Tell the Metro that - an article about Gold for the cycling women team but GB rue the missed chances.
  11. Disappointing day so far in the showjumping and diving.
  12. I’m sorry but I can’t really enjoy an event that lets an 11 year old compete. That’s unethical.
  13. Whose the Greek whose been sent home for a positive test?
  14. No medals for GB today in the showjumping. Both Maher and Brash knocked the same fence down.
  15. The team were so close to securing their future - both in terms of players and set up. But as they didn’t I don’t we think will qualify for LA sadly - funding will be removed and that will be that.
  16. The team is at the end of an era - both in terms of players and set up. I don’t we think will qualify for LA sadly
  17. 4 penalty points for Ben Maher surely puts him out of contention.
  18. Harry Charles has withdrawn from the show jumping due to horse injury.
  19. Don’t the team events show the depth of the squad and success of the programe better than Maddison and Omnium through.
  20. Hopefully they get their act together and build a new generation for LA.
  21. Hockey out - very disappointing time for both teams. Onwards to LA we hope.
