commonwealth games predictions
Below are our predictions for the winner of every even tin this years programmes (excluding EAD events). There may be some bias towards the home nations, but Australia unsurprisingly come out on top of the list of golds, with 23 from a possible 38. England will be delighted if they achieve what is shown below, as will Canada, as both countries predicted totals are improvements over their performances in Fukuoka, although England in particular benefit from the inclusion of 50m form stroke events this tiem around. Only time will tell whether we are right!
predicted medal table (golds):
- Australia - 23
- England - 9
- Canada - 5
- Scotland - 1
