How many gold medals will Australia win?

[Carlos Parra]

Yay, it's the Olympics.

I think most of our golds will be won in the pool (such a bold prediction, right).

In total, I think we'll win 13 - 16 gold medals.

An outside target is 20.

19 in tribute to our last GF win , or 24 in tribute to our next GF win ) (that's the gold ones )

[Andrew Walker]

I’m saying 18

[mightyrooster]

I’ll say 16, but hope for way more of course.

[Carlos Parra]

I’m saying 18

I think it's a distinct possibility.

I say who cares .Waste of my tax money .

[King Salvo]

I don't think the Matilda's will be in the medal hunt - 3 - 0 loss to Germany with USA Next

The "Experts" predict 48 medals

• 13 Gold
• 22 Silver
• 13 Bronze

Why is that - getting people active and participating in Sport and Exercise is a good thing

Yep agree with that but I don't think we need countries spending billions of taxpayers money on stadiums and facilities that in some cases are left to ruin .Much better things like hospitals , housing , schools and ECT to use the money for .I get you can say the same about football stadium but they are used on a much regular basis

At least 4.

I couldn't give a Fat Rat's Arse. The Olympics is riddled with corruption.

Gold to Grace Brown in the cycling road - time trial

The synchronised divers absolutely choked their last dive and blew a podium finish.

The Rugby 7s team were absolutely diabolical in the semi final against Fiji. They scored the first try but then just kept turning over possession to let the opposition score at will. Hopeless diffusing the kick off, hopeless in the line outs, hopeless in the rucks. Jesus I hate that stupid game and I hate the nit picking blind refs even more.

So no doubt you'll be glued to the Enhanced Games

The bronze medal play-off game was just another example of why Rugby Union (and its bastard child) is the hardest game in the world to get behind. Horrendous to watch referees orchestrate the results - it's a bit like watching KKKlein ref Easts.

Great results in the pool.
