Any chances?

Rowing? Triathlon? Athletics? BMX? Whinging?

Two football ones is all I want.  Not too concerned over the others (but a few extra's wouldn't go amiss).

Probably rowing a few. I hope Mark Todd falls off his horse. He has had his turn in the past, someone else should have been allowed their turn at glory.
Proud to have attended the first 175 Consecutive "Home" Wellington Phoenix "A League" Games !!

The Ruf, The Ruf, The Ruf is on Fire!!

If hes the best for the job then he should be there. I think Drysdale, Bridgewater and Twaddle will win gold and the Evers-Swindell sisters will win bronze or silver. Really hope Vili gets gold and I think a few others here and there and we should come up with about 6-8 golds with a few more bronze and silvers.

yeah i think this is shaping up as one of our better olympics in a while. people would be very dissapointed if we didnt come out of the rowing with at least 4 medals, at least 2 of them gold. triathlon we have a shot, walker in the bmx, pursuit team good for a medal apparently, maybe sailing, vili you would have to back in, outside shots i guess are willis, the kayakers, burmester. should be great and i cant wait

That can be easily arranged.

Three for me, and two for them.

BMX and olympics just dont go together. Too many weird events these days it's losing credibility.

My feeling about sports in the olypmics is that any sport that has a world cup every 4 years should be excluded.  And generally speaking, sports that have world champs every year should be included in the olympics.
