It's crunch time for our Olympic athletes.

They've got exactly one year to get ready for the Tokyo Olympics.

The training and preparation they do now will decide how many medals they win or lose, with New Zealand expected to pick up 18 medals in total.

Black Ferns Sevens star Tyla Nathan-Wong already has a silver from the Rio Olympics, while twice Commonwealth Games gold medal winning boxer David Nyika is hoping to replicate that success in Japan.

The two joined Heather du Plessis-Allan to discuss their preparation processes and the brewing controversy over whether suspected drug cheats still deserve to be treated fairly.
