2018 / 2019 Transfer Rumors & Discussion

Hitting over the block in Brazil is not a big deal... there`s only a few players over 1.90 and all these players happens to be over 30 years old already.

Brazilians are not known for their height but the Golden Generation was around 1.85 at least.....Sheilla 1.85, Jaque 1.86, Pequeno 1.84...but now they have Tandara 1.84, Natalia 1.83, Carol 1.83, Gabi 1.80.. Their are loosing height and I think it should be a concern right now.

For example one of the best OPP in the League was Bruna Honorio and she`s only 1.80cm....one of the best OH Thaisinha is 1.73cm.

Killing a ball over the block against Gabi/Drussyla/Monique is one thing.... but try to kill a ball over the block when Rasi/Naz/Zhu are standing in front of you.

Quote from LLOYD

Jumping was the kee of Hooker's game. She mostly killed balls over blocks. She was the best once. But I still think maybe she can play better in Galatasaray

Rahimova-Kosheleva-Hooker...but who's going to receive the ball?

Ataman, of course.

But hasn't Rahimova left already?

Brakocevic declined the news of her going to italy .

That's the problem with volleyball.it considering World of Volley as "reliable source" these days

Turkish site wrote the same about Brokocevic signed with Pomi

https://www.voleybolplus.com/2…jovana-brakocevic-pomide/

these volley websites should be making copy and paste from one another..

Quote from Sidney

I thought Brakocevic transfer to Pomi was actually official...wasn't it?

No. Volleyball.it posted it, referring to World of Volley whom they consider as reliable now because they're close to SB Community.

EDIT They name voleybolplus as source for Brakocevic's transfer and WOV as source for Carcaces.

And that's why I wrote it on volleyball.it saying they wrote it.

Nothing, as explained I mentioned world of volley as source for Carcaces (wov is close to SB)
and voleybolplus as source for Brakocevic (generally voleybolplus is reliable for every player). Apparently they were not this time for this player.

Quote from LLOYD

I think Brazilian clubs are better in defence than Turkish clubs. Hooker can be in trouble when her team will play with Vakif, Eczaci and but when Hooker's team will play with other clubs she can feel herself comfort. There are 2 or 3 clubs can block or defence against her. I think Galatasaray can be a good option for her. I think she may play better in Galatasaray if they are gonna keep Tanya too, they can be a good team for next season.

I am sure she still have level to play for competitive teams, even in Turkish league which is one of the strongest we have today. However she has many problems in terms of discipline. For example... She renewed with Minas in May 2017 and she allegedly said that her visa was not ready until October/November (even though she knew she had to arrange everything to be in Belo Horizonte in September). She came back, took a long time to recover her physical shape and her first game as starter was in round 9. Even playing as starter, she underperformed in many matches possibly due to the fact that she was not in the same rhytm as her teammates and her opponents.

Igor novara intersted Nootsara Tomkom replace Skorupa.

Calloni in casalmaggiore. ???

Mingradi close to Zanetti Bergamo.
