Today Dorota announced end of her career, due to financial problems of Atom she is leaving the club and ending her career (this time probably for sure). Dorota is one of the best players which Poland had in history. In 2005 she was named the best player of Europe and MVP of European Championship. She won Champions league in 2005/06 with Despar Perugia and 2 times European Chamionship with Polish NT. From that she retired in 2009.
Thank you Dori for all those years 
What a sad way to finish such a great career 
Wish her all the best for the future!
What a sad way to finish such a great career
its the same end like in the end of 2008, when she left Tena Santeramo....but probably this time is a real end 
I think this is the first thing Atom has written on their website that actually admits there is a financial problem. Her photo has already been removed from squad page (yet Fernandez is still shown.)
Dorota !! Thank you for all what you did for Polish NT, for all incredible moments ! 
That's sad that such a great player retired because of a situation like is currently in Atom

Thanks for everything, Dorota You were a great player 
It's sad that she must retire her career from a bad way.Anyway i think all polish fans are proud of her 
I wish her best for her whole life.Dorota
If there weren't any problems in Atom, she would have played till the end of the season 
I can't understand why she had to end her career in such a horrible moment for her and her team! I'm so sad, that because of situation in Atom this fantastic women had to do it. Good luck, Dorota!
Thanks for all Dorota
Legend! 
One of the most complete players ever
Thank you Dorota !
I still remember your best gameplay at Stal Bielsko Biała 1993-95 when twice you didn't win finals with Chemik Police.
I remember your cry and tears when you were in the corner ! Everywhere was champagne but I was totally impressed how hard you played to win. So I said it laudly (directly) despite Stal wasn't my favourite team.

One of the best players of the volley history !!! Good luck !!!
In an interview Dorota said that her dream is to play a match Poland - The rest of the world. I this second team could play players who played with her in clubs especially in Perugia where she played 9 years. Massimo Barbolini, Glinka, Walewska, Fofão, Agüero and Gioli initially agreed to participate in this event. And it would be her "goodbye" match.
she left Perugia in 2006,not in 2000!
yes, there's mistake
If I'm not mistaken, now she's commenting on Polsat Sport Azerrail-Dynamo

Luckily, she's not irritating (if it's her) like Niemczyk-Wolska is
