    Personally I think Munarini from what we've seen, is a lot better than Sartori who made the A cut. They're both on the shorter end for middles (like Manfredini) but Munarini showed that she was a lot more precise, blocks better and is a lot more agile. I would like to see her first get bumped to A1.

    I personally prefer Sartori rn but I agree Munarini has showed very nice things. I think she just needs some experience and indeed I hope to see her in A1!

    I have a question. Who is the MB with the number 35 and what is she doing with the NT squad. I am shocked. Where did they find such a limited player?

    Smells like ragebait from a mile away, so I'm just going to answer she's Matilde Munarini, MB from A2. Velasco said he would give chances to players from A2, so there she is. Clearly no chances of making it to the main team but a huge opportunity for development (and I think she did nice for her debut)

    Is there any reason not to play Derya? Reception in tragic anyway, I would rather try to have some attack from opp with Derya than a good reception every 15 with Bosetti... They target Frantti or Ayca anyway

    I wanted to comment that Cansu for me was one of MVPs, she really stepped up big time. It feels like Markova and KVR didn’t hit single OOS based on how good Cansu’s placements were for real.

    I would absolutely give it to Markova but I’m fine witg Cansu getting it too.

    Agree, her sets were so precise in the entire series and felt like she was in control the whole time. Definitely played a huge role in Vakif's win!

    I don't understand why Bernardi doesn't even give Orthmann an opportunity. She hasn't fully recovered, or simply the coach doesn't believe in her? The OH lineup of Orthmann + Villani isn't bad at all.


    The club waited for Orthmann for one year, but the coach doesn't even give her court time. It seems that the club and the coach are not in line at all. It seems Bernardi has preferences. If a player doesn't fit into his requirement, then this player will be benched all the time, unless someone else is performing badly. The old example was Cristina Chirichella. After Bonifacio backed to court last season, Chirichella became a bench player for the rest of the season. In the end, she left Novara where she had stayed for 10 years.

    Orthmann already left Novara, there is no clear statement about why but the club published the news on their website. They also did an Instagram post, deleted it 5 mins after posting and deleted all comments asking for Hanna so🤷 She was rumored to Turkey but I don't think I have seen any announcement

    Good match for Imoco but still they do not convince me yet... Scandicci was just a chaos in the block defence. Kate was increadible BTW. Also Gabi and Haak played amazing.

    Does anyone know why Tolok did not play?

    Seems shoulder issues for Tolok, no info if it is serious or not

    I think she can apply for some sort of sport citizenship without necessarily changing her federation. But it would still be a request and not a given and I don't know the rules for this, maybe it was already talked out for her.

    Are there like ever games where Ebrar is efficient offensively on the left side ? lol her passing is impressive though really but I feel like she’s never good offensively since she moved. Always very many errors

    I've been thinking the same since she moved, lol. I love her and I think she did an outstanding job in changing her position but her attack from 4 is just bad.

    Yassssmina :heart: hope Bonifacio is feeling better soon though! Because she's sick, not injured right? (Not sure if I can trust Google translate)

    It says "acciacchi" which in italian means basically small physical problems (like muscular ones)


    Edit: I think Yasmina was called mostly for trainings, otherwise Bonifacio would be already out of the gym if it was serious. Depending on how fast she can recover I think she can still be in Paris.

    If USA is what it is now, I think they owe a lot to Logan. She was insane. Goddess level to me, I started watching volleyball because of her.

    For me this is not far from what the Olympic roster will look like (given that two players will be cut/be the 13th). Let's see how it goes.
