Well, instead of South Africa we will have Greece in our group. I would have preferred Japan in our group.

Yikes, we are in the easier group in men's water polo, which means that we will get a strong opponent in the QF no matter what. I have a bad feeling about this after the last two Olympic QFs...

Not yet, but there are rumours ...

This article explains the rumors.... Waterpolo players of both teams were asked to find their own funds for attending the Games. If they succeed, they'll go, if not....
