I think we'll just about beat the 19 gold medals we got in 2008, it's going to be close though

and Russia has 28 but only 3 gold. Not a good games for the Aussies or Russians.

Shaun 04-08-2012 09:41 PM

was sure they'd battle it out for 3rd

lostalex 04-08-2012 09:47 PM

New Zealand only has a population of 4 million people and they are kicking some Aussie ass lol, that's gotta sting for the Aussies. New Zealand 3 golds, Aus only 1.

I know if Canada had more Gold medals than the USA i'd be furious. Aus and NZ are basically like USA and Can.

Australia expected to have loads of success in swimming but they have had none at all

Novo 04-08-2012 09:59 PM

Ireland haven't won a medal yet either?

Marc 04-08-2012 10:04 PM

Boxing soon

lostalex 04-08-2012 10:23 PM

Why are you so interested in Ireland? Is Ireland like Britain's canada?

Britain - Ireland
America - Canada
Australia - New Zealand
India - Pakistan
China - Japan
South Korea - North Korea

I love how each country has it's own little rivalry with it's neighbors.

Munchkins 04-08-2012 10:29 PM

USA now ahead of China, such fierce rivalry
China got 100 medals in total last time ;O

It's a good rivalry but at the same time it's a bit underwhelming. During the Cold War when USSR and USA were both good at the same sports, it was intense as hell. But with China, they excel in the more "offbeat" sports that not everyone knows about. They stack up medals in synchronized diving, badminton, table tennis, weightlifting, etc. Don't get me wrong, it's absolutely the smartest thing to do, just makes the rivalry a bit anticlimactic.

Why poor Andy Murray?

He's guaranteed GB two more medals, silver being the worst he can get, hopefully Dobson learned to serve over-night.

Jayson 05-08-2012 03:27 PM

Murray gold, Smith silver and Whitlock bronze, all in 5 mins <3

Marc 05-08-2012 04:04 PM

204 Competing Nations and only 64 of them have won a medal

GypsyGoth 06-08-2012 06:29 PM

It's the winning that matters, not the taking part.

Jayson 06-08-2012 06:39 PM

Exactly, Claudia.

GypsyGoth 06-08-2012 06:42 PM

At the end of the games, if those countries still don't have a medal, they should be in the special olympics next time.
