Mens
USA
Serbia & Montengero
Australia
Greece
Italy
Argentina
New Zealand
Angola
Lithuania
China
Spain
Pierto Rico

WOMENS
Australia
USA
Czech Republic
Brazil
Japan
Greece
China
Korea
Russia
New Zealand
Spain
Nigeria

Results will be released this Friday, August 13.

I read something yesterday that suggested China could finish anywhere from 1-6 in the men's competition.

Italy beat the US. We beat Italy (albeit after 3 attempts). China beat us. Weak logic, but I don't think anything can be ruled out.

I'd rate Lithuania and China more highly than your list positionings.

I'd put Lithuania in the medals for sure, Australia should be happy with 5th place finish in my opinion, anyhting higher would be a HUGE bonus.

Cheers, DJ

Men's competition is very very open this year, you could be extremely right or extremely wrong. Don't know enough abuot women but I expect the usual suspects to be at the top - is Australia good enough for gold? Do the US ladies have their full team?
