  1. I feel it’s more likely ranking points will be reintroduced.
  2. I think also those athletes who either have to compete on many days to finish an event or compete in multiple events will be more at risk than those who are only competing on one or two days.
  3. Scandinavians are like GB with good vaccine uptakes I believe
  4. As it stands for the first time ever I will be missing the entire games as I will be abroad in Greece.
  5. It feels a recipiemfor disaster to have the village open over a week before completions for most begin.
  6. Apparently the Russian Rugby Seven women team only have to Quarantine for four days at the most
  7. Swapping seats has caused problems in quarantine before. People should know that.
  8. Japan population don’t want the games - this is just them trying not possibly see civil disobedience occur becuase of them.
  9. From his message I think he is trying to make people think he might have been poisoned. That will be a spectacular defence,
  10. I can see the parade of Nations being replaced with only flag bearers or even local Japanese volunteers doing the flag bearing.
  11. Loads of people always pull of Tennis tounments up till the day it’s starts. Easy to see another 5-10 in both singles pulling out and 2-3 pairs in the doubles pulling out.
  12. I think the rowing heats will be something I will either record or watch on the Player and catch up before the opening ceremony,
  13. That is an interesting law. It wouldn’t be the the case here in the UK.
  14. I believe in the Uk all commentators are working from Salford (for the BBC) and probably London for Eurosport. However course reporters are travelling to Tokyo.
  15. I wonder if that is because more people would watch the closing love as it’s a weekend morning compared to the weekday morning of the opening ceremony. Here in the UK the opening ceremony is only fully shown once live and in the evening they will be 60 minutes of highlights. I can’t remember if in 2016 when the ceremonies were overnight were a full rerun shown in the morning. I stayed up and watched both fully live.
  16. Through the closing ceremony is only live on Peacock which I believe is a streaming service?
  17. It’s good to see the opening ceremony is at least shown live in the USA.
  18. The Poor vaccination rate and still hosting the Olympics is making the government in Japan unpopular. Having no fans is one way the Government hopes to not get further blame given to it,
  19. Thar is why a new wave could be rather bad in America. 30% unvaccinated and most of those thinking the pandemic is over is a recipe for chaos.
  20. I imagine Sweden and Norway will also get to similar high numbers of vaccinated people. The Uk might just fall short of 90% - maybe the announcement of quarantine free travel will provide the boost needed to get that extra 1%.
  21. Eurosport has quite a lot of rights differences between mainland Europe and the UK and Ireland so could never share a schedule. And even when programming is shared all the commentary and presenting is different as Eurosport would never put out a dubbed feed in the UK.
  22. Doesn’t the feed have to change because of the language differences. Like when I go on holiday the German Eurosport is available in my hotel room but I can’t imagine they would air that coverage in Hungary with all the presenting and commentary in German.
