    I can't believe nobody has done this poll yet. 2 days from the Olympics this is a multiple choice poll of which countries will top the medal table. Unfortunately only a maximum of 25 countries can be fit on the poll machine
    I'm surprised that Spain,Denmark and the Ukraine have not done better at the Winter Olympics. North Korea isn't Participating and I would love if Ireland could get a few medals and upset the usual teams.
    The poll ends 11 days from now and the Olympics ends on the 23rd February 17 days from now

    I think Norway, Russia, Germany, and Canada will all do well. Austria too, although I forgot to vote for them. The USA will do okay, but they're more of a summer games country. Even still, they'll be up in the top 10, potentially top 5.

    USA are normally in the top 5 for winter games tables plus with the addition of extra freestyle events it should help them

    The poll that I've done here is not very good, there are nearly twice as many athletes competing from the Ukraine as there are from Estonia. Perhaps 25 poll options are too many and I should have done a better check :(

    I notice you haven't got Ireland in there pff! Canada USA Norway I think be well up there. The Dutchies doing a great job for the moment but they haven't got much else after the skating now. Go Canada!

    Sorry about the late response Lenmeister,
    Perhaps I should have put Ireland in the poll but hopefully a few medals can still be won and hopefully there will be more athletes in more events at Pyeongchang in 4 years time.
