In worst scenario they could put Vasileva as OPP so the number of Italians on court will be enough (Di Iulio, Chirichella and Sansonna).

Being realistic, you wouldn't want to sign if you already know that you are doomed to stay at the bench after one month. Besides it oughts to be an Italian, I don't see it easily coming.

She was called by NT in 2009 for the 1st time, she was sub of Cardullo, later she was back in 2013 but as sub again.

Sirressi IMO is as good as De Gennaro, but has been underrated on a not acceptable level
Among all the good Italian liberos she’s definitely my favorite with Carocci.

Conegliano will play A LOAD of games, it would be insane to keep starting 7 all the time, but for CL I have a feeling that the MBs will be de Kruijf and Ogbogu (Sorry if it’s not spelled like this 🙈). For OH it should be Hill-Sylla or Geerties-Sorokaite, or vice versa. Apart from Wolosz and De Gennaro I guess they will locate the players.

I’m looking forward to seeing how the setters this year will perform. Honestly last year it was kind of a bummer.
Wolosz with de Kruijf-Obogu, Hancock with Chirichella-Veljkovic, Skorupa with Heyrman-Danesi, Malinov with again Stevanovic will be quite amusing to watch.
Conegliano is seemingly the biggest candidate winner unless some unexpected injuries happen (like to Megan Hodge 2 years in a row) but Novara, Scandicci and Monza won’t let them win easily.
Busto, Casalmaggiore, Bergamo and Firenze most likely will be fighting for 5th, or could beat the teams above, all depend on daily conditions since I don’t think there’s such a huge gap. To me honestly Busto is a dark-horse under Lavarini’s coaching, besides Lowe seems to be have gotten so much better physically and Herbots-Gennari OH is so nicely balanced. Casalmaggiore could surprise us as well, It’s going to be Antonijevic’s first year playing in Italy, curious how well she will do.

Actually Poljak was a really outstanding setter, almost as soft as real setters
I remember her setting better than Grbac in one game, Popovic didn’t manage to score the ball given by Grbac but as soon as she got one from Poljak she scored -
Speaking of Krsmanovic, I wish there were more players like her. Silent, almost invisible but getting her job done so well. Mina Popovic seems to be that sort of a player.
-
Yeah, definitely a nightmarish day for Sanja, she’s never as good as she was after that injury.
I also remember how Terzic encouraged Ana Antonijevic by saying she also could be really good as starter, not only Maja is great but so is Ana
-
Stefana missed the whole 2011 NT season due to cardiac problems.
If my memory serves right, she played in the World Cup 2011, I remember that Citakovic was registered on the wild roster as #11, so Stefana had to wear #17. I may be wrong though but I'm quite sure about it.
-
Didn't she already sign with a Korean club?
-
Any chance that Teun Buijs takes over, at least for OQT?
Actually he was the first one crossing my mind, leastwise as a lifesaver in such a short period.

Congrats to Serbia
Buša is a great description of Women’s volleyball, so many ups and downs. -
Anyone still thinking this ECH are boring?
-
You should give this advice to Gabriela Polańska. She could be really thankful!
Or Rachael Adams
-
Egonu really needs learn how to control herself when she’s getting mentally instable, it’s normal that one can’t always play well but she just collapses nonstop.
-
Maja is showing how A real living legend plays.
-
actually it was not us that started it if you read carefully : ) but I will stop talking on this subject.
Seeing Emil disappear when Turkey wins is great enough for me.
Why do you keep mentioning about me? I don’t even understand. Why do you give too much damn regarding what I do? Did I swear at you or anything? Seriously don’t be a drama queen.

Ofc Emil likes all ur posts the guy that has been the only person here continuously hating on Turkish NT for years
we did not forget u either.He picks all his chances
Jeez, What’s wrong with you?
Why got so much offended? Just chill. -
