No 8 is never happening, I think the Fiucane ones are the only ones closest to being nailed.
I want us to medal in at least 8 though.

Pretty much the same medal tally as France, who have had nearly a decade practising on some of these courses and probably threw shit loads at it.
Australia only ahead due to the amount of medals available in swimming. Wed probably need every potential gold medalist to get gold to surpass them.

I think we’ll do that. Not sure how we are placed in the unpredictable ones, is it omnium or kieran? Aussies having a good olympics - have they invested a lot of money since Tokyo? Can’t see us catching them in the medal tableNo 8 is never happening, I think the Fiucane ones are the only ones closest to being nailed.

Edit Aus git 8 golds in 2012 and 2016, 17 in 2021, already at 17 in 2024 (cunts)

Shame we haven’t got any young skaters in GB
We do they just don't specialise in the Olympic discipline. The 51 year old didn't either, he switched to Park style very late in his career to experience the Olympics.

Doesn’t seem we have anyone that is tipped to really challenge in the 400m hurdles, unfortunately.

French hurdler just pulled off a big upset by auto-qualifying in second ahead of Dos Santos (Brazil) in the men’s 400m!
Amsterdam is famous for 3 thingsThe Dutch were particularly strong in the rowing and looking strong in cycling too. Very good per head of population this time
Bicycles, Canals and I can't think of the third thing.
