I’m not sure who are you referring as the new golden triangle
As far as the news goes, Pimpichaya should be back on court soon. She’s already practicing with the team. Hattaya probably won’t be back in time for the qualification though.
I think golden triangle is new wave with my favourite girls: Pimpichaya, Ajcharaporn and Chatchu-On
All team will qualify to quarter finals, so 2nd phase not so important
I think they will try to win too, as they are the best team and are playing at home with A team.
Castillo is missing, for the rest I guess will be best possible team
Hi, generally I am not opening threads, but this one was missing.
Anyone can help with rosters? Especially China, Japan, Iran, South Korea, ecc....
Still nothing here on official site
https://asianvolleyball.net/ne…-volleyball-championship/
I don't know if they are already in Japan but it will be same team with same 14 players from ECH
CSM Bucarest team has been dismissed. They will not play neither cev or rumanian league.
What is their expectations for this tournament?
I think Kor will win 3-2 at extra points in the 5th set.
jackson is pregnant.
Did she announce it? What is the source?
They still have Sinéad. I doubt 4T is going to make it though. Imagine that. It would be over the top. My money's on Denso, 4T or not. They have the Denso Bomber.
Is that player I've never heard about strong?
I am interested in japanese transfers so please post. Which is the Japan who signed with Drews?
Can't find any good link for thai tv outside thailand. Anyone can help?

I will edit this based on final squads.
Eczacibasi 5th is just a joke 
. Worst thing can happen is 3rd place but I think they will be at least in the final.
Anyone knows how long Ajcharporn will need to be back on court?
Should have applied for medical TUE. She wouldn't be back anyway because of her career ending leg injury but to go out with a doping offense is a bad way to retire.
Is her injury true and not just to cover the doping story? When she got injured? Source? I forgot about this story.
Display MoreChina roster:
Spikers: 5 Du Qing-qing, 6 Zhang Yi-chan, 8 Jin Ye, 9 Zhong Hui, 10 Wang Yi-zhu, 19 Liu Yan-han (C), 20 Duan Fang
Middles: 4 Yang Han-yu, 7 Gao Yi, 14 Zheng Yi-xin
Setters: 3 Diao Lin-yu, 13 Sun Yan
Liberos: 15 Ni Fei-fan, 18 Wang Wei-yi
Coach: Bao Zhuang
A bit weaker than the previous one.
I see Liu Yan-han and Duan Fang as starter OH and maybe Du Qing-qing as opposite?
Or maybe Duan Fang can play opposite and Liu Yan-han and Zhang Yi-Chan as OH?
What do you think?
Strange. Thought she was basically retired after Rio OG
She scored 59 point in VNL 2018 and was in the list for Asian Games before being tested.
Display MoreBy the way, this would be the OG pools assuming the highest ranked remaining teams qualify:
A- Japan, Italy, Poland, Argentina, Iran, Venezuela (replace with Chile if you wish).
B- Brazil, USA, Russia, Canada, France, Egypt.
Only the World Cup could change the rankings. Some teams are close to each other but I don't see any major shifts happening unless some of the big teams go there with their "B" squad. The reason I don't see much change happening is because the teams participating in the world cup are pretty much the same as in 2015, except Brazil who are number 1 anyway, so they can't really climb in the ranking.
Is it sure ranking systems will be used and there will not be no draw?
Oh, and Ayumi Yoshida is NEC's representative in the running for Miss Volleyball or Miss Sakura or Miss Something-or-Other:
My favourite from these is the last one from Vietnam
