Dutch NT 2013-2014

  • Grothues update: The op took place this morning and she's now recovering and in good spirits. Just as she always is :thumbsup:


    The club hasn't said anything new, they updated their communiqué but didn't change much except changing the reference to the op from the future to the past tense.


    Nothing else to report for now…

  • Today's Floortje's birthday, happy birthday Flo


    It's sad to hear about Caroline :(

  • @ Burak


    Good to see Floortje's picture in the Dutch NT-thread :D :drink:


    Hopefully, we will see more, in future :D

  • It was nice to see another Dutch player in Istanbul but i really wonder what is she doing here now ?


    Floortje zu Fenerbahce ? :D

    I think it is just because there is no Piacenza-match this weekend :win: So, time for visiting friends :)


    I read Robin is in Venice now :win:

  • I hope this year Karine Muijlwijk will get a chance in NT. She's playing a great season in German league, and even though I have doubts about how much she can do on international level I think she deserves a chance at least. Flier is 30 this year and Pietersen hasn't shown anything convincing in the last years, so the only hope at OPP is Sloetjes and nobody knows what shape she is in/how long it will take to get back to her best shape after her injury...

    Meijners?


    I think Moniek Jansen is better than Pietersen

    Indeed. Muijlwijk at least deserves a chance.


    Well, Flier showed in WCHQ she is still able to play at high level.


    Agree about Pietersen.


    My choice for Opp: Sloetjes, Flier, Muijlwijk.


    I expect the wide-roster to be announced soon..maybe already upcoming week.

  • My roster for 2014-season:


    Setters: Stoltenborg (Aachen), Dijkema (Halkbank), von Piekartz (Münster), Molendijk (Sliedrecht)


    Libero: Schoot (Dresden), Knip (Sliedrecht), Oosterveld (Alterno)


    Opposite/OH: Sloetjes (Busto), Flier (I. Baku), Muijlwijk (Wiesbaden), Buijs (Busto), Grothues (Cannes), Plak (Alterno), Renkema (Pavia)


    Middle Blocker: De Kruijf (Piacenza), Steenbergen (Prostejov), Beliën (Aachen), Thijssen (Sliedrecht),

  • Remember Grothues is injured and will miss at least the first part of the summer :S So it would be important to have another OH who can receive well, but the question is who??


    Exactly...


    I don't know...since Stam is not available...
