I'm so happy for Tirozzi, she deserved it and she should have been called before too.
If Gennari's body will be "not that tired", I hope to see her with the other girls soon.
I think this team need a leader, and the leader can be MARTINA GUIGGI. I think she is not there because she needs some rest. She had an amazing season in Bergamo, after K.S.'s injury, she was several times the best scorer for Bergamo, she jump serves again (and it can be useful) and she is the kind of played I would like as captain of this new NT. We can't only have Lucia Bosetti + a bunck of unexperienced players.
I just want to say that I am so sorry for Ferretti. She is very unlucky because she has to play at the same time in which we have Lo Bianco. I really wish there was more "age gap" between them because they are the best italian setters of the last years and we barely had the chance to watch them playing together in the NT. I understand that she hasn't been called because our goal right now is to be ready for Rio and so Mazzanti decided to call very young players, but I wish she had a chance.
Orro, Malinov and Cambi are talended, but they are not the next Lo Bianco.
This new team is going to be so different from the "old good" one we had some yeast ago. [I already said it some time ago] Our strenght was the defence: we always had good liberos + we had Bosetti L, Costagrande, Del Core, Piccinini which were "defensive OH". Since Togut, we never had a real and dominant OPP.
Now we have a lot of OPP and players that are half OH anf half OPP because they are good at hitting and not in back row.
So reception/defense will not be as good as it used to be + now we don't have a setter as good as the one we hade before.
The best part of this NT will be for sure having a lot of good MBs.
I like Parrocchiale since when she played in Villa and I am happy for her.
