Prediction thread: how many medals will TeamGB get in the Olympics?

The Tokyo Olympics is only a week away :woo: so it's the perfect time to make our predictions: How many medals do you think Team GB (and other countries) will receive this year? :2012:

Here's a template you can use, or you can just guess the overall amount of medals! :biggrin:

Country:
Gold:
Silver:

Total:

For reference, here are the stats for the previous 3 Olympic Games:

Gold 21
Silver 12
Bronze 14
Total 47

My understanding is we have outperformed expectations in previous years.

I am anticipating that with covid the superpower nations teams with huge depth i.e. USA, Russia & China will pick up more then usual over the high over-performing nations with less overall athletes.

Just a purely speculative guess. I also think their is a chance we have covid outbreaks in certain teams or sports that make knowingly the outcome very hard.

Team GB
Gold: 26
Silver: 20
Bronze: 15

Over 40 medals in total. The British team will be one of the best one at the olympic games as usual.
Team: Great Britain
Gold 23
Silver 20
Bronze 23
Total 66

Think we'll miss out on a couple of golds and they'll be replaced with silvers and bronzes instead.

Team: North Korea
Gold: 300
Silver: 0
Bronze: 0
Total: 300

The mighty Mr Kim will ensure the victory of the entire team :happy2:
'Medals' :tongue: We'll get papped out and sent home for bad behaviour.
There are 12 Pals chez Persephone and Pals, so I (Persephone the Therapy Penguin) believe Team GB will get at least 12 Gold Medals, if not more :king1:

There are huge expectations on the British team. No one here really believes that Great Britain finishes the Olympic games with under 40 medals.

As it is an important match for HK, free to air channels 77, 81, 82, 84, 85, 96 and 99 will all broadcast the men's foil final!
Watched the semis on 99 and the commentators freaked out when he made it!
