  1. Drop greco-roman then. Problem solved It was recommended by the IOC 10 years ago IIRC PS: as you seem to be a wreestler specialist, do you know if France has ever failed to qualifie at least one greco-roman wrestler to the Olympics ?
  2. From the comments here, the sport seems even more corrupt than boxing...
  3. Thanks Both doubles looks indeed like the logical choice.
  4. Has Australia allready hinted which disciplines they might chose ?
  5. I don't think it's too woriisome yet. If tennis is anything to go by, the first tournament in Seoul was missing a lot of top tennis players (Wilander, Lendl, Becker, Noah, etc.) It takes some time to establish it.
  6. Official french team for the last OQT. http://www.fflutte.com/a-la-une/tournoi-de-qualification-olympique-istanbul-tur I'm hoping/praying for two more spots.
  7. Vescan is qualified Wich makes of her the only second french wrestler to qualifie. We had 6 wrestler in London, and 9 in Beijing ...
  8. By "everybody", you mean some canadians and netherlanders, and a croatian apparently ? Anyway, I didn't want to do it, but here, there are a few points. - France hasn't stolen anything or anyone. Games were won fair and square. - Let's not pretend for a second that Canada tried its utmost to win that game. The first candaian scorer didn' display any kind of joy when he scored his first goal, quite the contrary actually. David Hart is full of shit here. Canada was not a synonym of "honesty" and "integrity", they were simplly worse at sucking it. - Calling for sanctions against teams not showing "honesty" and "integrity" ? Fine, let's start by Canada then... Oh well, what about these soccer teams already qualified that field a second string for their last pool stage game ? What about Spain's basketball team in London (France did suffer from that one btw) ? What about ?... It's a can of worns. Everybody knows it. - Let's have some perspective here. France is far from a water polo powerhouse . We are talking about a team that didn't qualifie for the olympics during 24 years. A team that almost failed constantly to even qualifie for an euro championship during 20 years. Are you really expected these guys to work their ass off during such a game when: a) They are already qualified for the next round b) They have to play the most important game of their life the next day c) Winning, almost certainly means they will miss the oportunity of their life Really, seriously ? - The Netherdlands should not even have been qualified to this tournament, having been previously eliminated... by France in the last euro. They were only there because some teams from other continents couldn't make it. Here goes your painted orange white horse. So please, everybody takes their sour grapes home. That shit is getting tedious as fuck.
  9. Cherry on the cake, les équipes d'intérieur sport étaient présentes pendant le TQO. Reportage à suivre le 20 avril. Can't wait.
  10. Yeah right, because Canada was a paragon of virtue yesterday
  11. Imo, it's a 50-50 type of situation. Nor teams are water-polo powerhouse, and it really might be their only chance to make to the olympics in a very long time. France didn't particpate since 1992 (damn you Yugoslavia, you're greatly missed), the Netherlands since 2000.
  12. Ok, thank you for the explanation. Sadly enough, it's the first time in decades that water polo is broadcasted live on french tv and we end up with such a travesty.
  13. It seems that both french and canadians agree with the dutch federation.
  14. Indeed, and from a french perspective, the match needs to be won as I don't think we will stand a chance against Spain.
  15. Goal difference between the three teams, meaning: 1) Italy 2) Spain 3) That other team we would like to play against for an olympic spot.
  16. Anyway, it doesn't seem it's going to be the case (Italy is leading by 6 goals).
  17. Yes, and depending of the result between Italy and the Netherlands, we could witness a very strange match tomorrow (ie both teams playing to loose)
  18. Easy. The olympic spots are linked to the ones who made it. http://www.fftir.org/fr/jeux_olympiques_2016 ("quotas nominatifs au 01/10/2015")
  19. Oui, presque impossible, mais pas tout à fait impossible. Je leur donne une chance sur 20 de se qualifier..
  20. Théoriquement, c'est possible. Il faudra qu'ils gagnent tous ceux qu'ils ont battu à l'euro (Allemagne, Roumanie, etc.) + les Russes sans avoir le droit de se planter une seule fois. Ce sera très, très compliqué, mais pas impossible (disons, 5%)
