Polish NT 2023

  • I wanted too because the last time we met japan was a year ago, which we lost them with 0:3, and we won't meet them until next year. We met germany quite a lot and we know that it won't be easy against germany.

    It also wouldn't be easy against Japan :D

    Sorry but Japan can’t beat Italy 3rd team. What is so hard exactly?


    Additionally ranking wise it would be better to play Japan or Italy. If we lose against Germany it impacts rankings a lot and decreases OG chances. If we lose to Italy or Japan it has almost 0 impact and therefore 0 pressure.

    IMHO they have really great service and Poland team had a lot of problems with that in the past.

    Last year they easily lost it 0-3.


    The last time they beat them was in 2019 if I am not mistaken. It was during Montreux Volley Masters, and the main reason that POL won it was great game by Kowalewska and smart attacks by Smarzek.

    The points difference isn't that big

    POL - GER 0-3, they lose around 13 pts

    POL - GER 1-3, they lose around 10 pts

    POL - GER 2-3, they lose around 8 pts


    POL - JPN 0-3, they lose 10 pts
    POL - JPN 1-3, they lose 7 pts

    POL - JPN 2-3, they lose 5 pts

  • Can Centka be back as well? :white:

    I know that Wołosz and Smarzek are/were in Szczyrk.

    No idea what's with Centka. I saw that someone from her family commented she would be back for Eurovolley


    Maybe bobaas knows what's going on with Centka and Witkowska

    No idea. I know that 3 girls were in Szczyrk: Wołosz, Smarzek and Szlagowska. If you want you can send private message to Centka's mom. Or ask her boyfriend on Twitter xD

  • Wolosz is with Skowronska and Skorupa somewhere on vacation celebrating 40th birthday of Kasia as I saw on IG or not?

    No, these were pictures from the past.


    Kamila Witkowska said today that she is coming back to training very soon. But for sure she won’t be ready for the finals.

  • I just scrolled it yesterday, so I didnt know exactly if its true or not, Im not a fan of IG :saint:

  • I wanted Japan, Korneluk would bully them all. Now we have to struggle against Weitzel and Alsmeier, which is always good against us.

    I see that someone thinking like me:drink: I mean I like Alsmaier, but not when playing against us, because as I remember most of games in VNL, one of the best or if not the best performance she had against Poland :gone: aby way, pol vs ger matches are always hard to predict...

  • but you need to multiply it further x2 so if we lose 0-3 to Germany its -13 but also +13 for them so it reduces the difference by 26. It’s quite an impact on the rankings.
