Strong chance for a home-town win for Jessica Ennis (Women's Heptathlon)
2011 world champion Tatyana Chernova an obvious danger

Predicting that Australia will get 12 gold medal or less

Teams announced earlier this week.

Boomers Olympic team: Patty Mills, Matthew Dellavedova, Joe Ingles, Adam Gibson, Peter Crawford, Brad Newley, David Barlow, David Andersen, Matt Nielsen, Mark Worthington, Aleks Maric, Aron Baynes.

Opals Olympic team: Lauren Jackson, Kristi Harrower, Belinda Snell, Jennifer Screen, Sam Richards, Rachel Jarry, Liz Cambage, Kathleen Macleod, Jenna O'Hea, Abby Bishop, Suzy Batkovic, Laura Hodges.

Bit of a surprise. Usain Bolt beaten in Jamaica at the country's Olympic trials on Friday night. Winner, Yohan Blake, running the 100m final in 9.75 seconds to upset world-record holder Usain Bolt by 0.11 seconds.

Blake beat Bolt again, this time in the 200m

Assuming Blake & Bolt start, Jamaica should take home the Mens 4x100m Gold Medal

..my comment made in april

I like the Russians to win the Mens Team Sabre (Fencing)

All-up, Michael Phelps (USA) to win both Mens 100m & 200m Fly
