Every Olympics, some new sports are added to the games (and others are dropped).
What sport would you like to see added to the Olympics?
 
More cycling events so Britain has a chance to win some medals :D
 
I would like to see rugby league added. It is looking like their 9s format will be part of the 2032 Olympics too.
 
Oh agreed! The more rugby the better!
Yes! I am totally biased as it is my favourite sport to watch. But it would be a great addition. Would also be a leveling sport which would allow some of the smaller countries a serious shot at a medal.

Absolutely agreed, Fiji showed us that already and what a showing it was!

 
I can think of one or two events that I could do probably do without. :p Curling, and Beach Volleyball/aka/Beach Blanket Bingo.

Definitely! Having them at the Olympics can only be good for the international game. As ideally the game really thrives when more teams are competitive. It is something union does better than league. But league has been improving.

Also the eyes of some match officials are astounding. With all the attacks they get they can be really on point.

Absolutely agreed, the more healthy competitors the better! The game gets better, new countries have shots and medals they never would have been able to achieve before, and the game as a whole improves to keep up. It simply benefits everyone.
 
Rugby and motor racing. Seriously, if the FIA - *cough* - can come up with a decent series like Formula E (unlike the rich-as-hell cluster:censored: that is Formula 1), they can manage an Olympic event.
 
*continues* I mean, if you can have golf as an Olympic event....
