Italy - Serie A1 2016/17

  • I only saw the end of the 4th set and tiebreak as well, but to be fair to Lo Bianco every player other than Guiggi and Skowronska had quite bad attacking % so I can understand if she didn't really want to go to them in the big moments.

  • Scandicci started really well the game and won the 1st set, then they lost the 2nd set but it was close, but in the 3rd set OMGGG everything went downhill for them, and they are the type of team that they can`t get back on track, it is one mistake after the other, they did same thing vs Pomi, it is just awful.


    Let`s see if they can get back on track and start over in the 4th set. ( Well 4-0 for Conegliano already)

  • Bricio is going to be a world star OH in next years, she has all skills to make it.


    Great performance by Fawcett in her first game in Conegliano. Imoco has the best squad IMO. It has great subs players in case things don't work well with starters.

  • I watched Bolzano - Novara.


    Decent win by Novara.


    Barcellini is a good transfer. Now they have 4 good OHs!


    After Barcellini, they certainly need to transfer a strong MB, because both starting MBs aren't strong enough, considering Novara should fight for the title like Conegliano or Casalmaggiore..

  • Bricio is going to be a world star OH in next years, she has all skills to make it.


    Great performance by Fawcett in her first game in Conegliano. Imoco has the best squad IMO. It has great subs players in case things don't work well with starters.

    I never really liked Bricio while playing in College, mostly because I did not like her personality. But Im starting to like her now, I wish she was from Puerto Rico or Canada, at least we would see her more often with the NT, while playing for Mexico she will be playing only Pan American Cup and Pan American Games mostly.

  • Hey Im a fan from the Philippines and I just followed the Italian League. Can someone pls explain whats coppa italia and why is there a separate finals from the regular season? Thanks :cheesy: :cheesy:

  • Well in Serie A1 every team plays each other twice and the 8 teams with the most points qualify for the play offs. This is what most of the season is made up of.


    In the Coppa Italia, there is no qualification stage the teams simply play matches and knock each other out until there is only one team left.

  • Thank you. Im rooting for Scandicci & Modena BTW

  • It is first set and it is Fabris vs Egonu. For now 6 points for Fabris and 6 points for Egonu.


    And it is only 13:12 in 1.set hahaha

  • Egonu is playing like OH and she has disaster reception. Already 2 errors.


    She is not type of player to be OH. She needs to be OPP.

  • Stevanovic with 4 aces in a row....3 on Egonu.


    Egonu is still only 17? She`s really young and has a lot of time to develop to be a great OH. In Club Italia she should have been playing as OH all season.

  • And how will Orro improve in Club Italia if she is only setting to Egonu ?


    She gave 9 time in row ball to Egonu...

  • Because Guerra made a lot of mistakes in reception and she was bad in attack..

  • And after 2 sets it is Fabris 16 points vs Egonu 17 points :)

  • Pomi - Club Italia 3:0 (25:18, 25:22, 15:16)


    What a performance by Samanta Fabris, in only 3 sets She scored 25 points !!! 19 in attack, 4 aces, 2 blocks


    Best scorer at Club Italia side was Egonu with 20 points.
