I prefer Kaczmarek over Huber for the 2nd opposite spot. Kubiak, Semeniuk and Sliwka will surely be part of the final 12.
I think everyone prefers Kaczmarek over Huber for opposite.
Semeniuk surely in 12, but not Leon?

Haha. Sorry my mistake. It's Muzaj.
Of course Leon and Kurek are the aces of Poland. No contest on that.
I don't think Kurek is safe. Symbolically, yes because of his WCH performance but currently, I prefer other opposites over him.

He will surely be the primary opposite. His experience gives him that lock.

Also I agree Kurek isn't playing at his best but it's not like Kaczmarek or especially Muzaj is playing that well either....
I feel sorry for those blockers trying to reach a great set up ball to Muserskiy.
Volvich
Volvich is not that good to be picked for Tokyo. I hope Iakovlev will recover soon. I want him, Vlasov and Kurkaev get the positions for MB.
Volkov and pipes are water and oil.

Agree. I don't think Muserskiy is Russia's #1 MB, him and Iakovlev will fight for that 3rd MB spot.
Volvich is a disaster through and through.
Agree. I don't think Muserskiy is Russia's #1 MB, him and Iakovlev will fight for that 3rd MB spot.
But I think he will surely get a spot in Tokyo for a reason that he can become a substitute for Mikhaylov in crucial cases like in London.

Poor Poletaev...
Goncharova's ex husband needs to get an emergency call from Sammelvuo. The libero is such a problem for Russia that this needs to happen now.

He's no longer that great as MB, so I doubt playing as Opp would have a better result. But you're right, his spot for Tokyo is secured. One of Vlasov/Kurkaev/Iakovlev will be cut as a result.

I have a feeling that Sammelvuo might pick 3 opposites (including Musersky) 3MBs 3OHs 2 setters and a libero.

There's no way he's gonna do this. He will be fired the second he makes this proposal.
OHs are more valuable than opposites in an olympic tournament and especially in a pandemic. 3 OH roster is simply too few.
That was a great showing from Volkov. I hope he will be part of the starting line up tomorrow with Kliuka.
Also I agree Kurek isn't playing at his best but it's not like Kaczmarek or especially Muzaj is playing that well either....
I’m not worried about Kurek at all. He still has and shows the same possibilities, plays just decent volleyball at the moment but I guess he has hard gym training at the moment the he will catch the shape for the Olympics in July.
Happy to see TJ Sanders back! It has been a while.
