the brazilians/italians are going at it in that chat
i love themI honestly spent at least half an hour with friends writing and adding flame to the chat, it was so funny

I might be misremembering things but when I signed up for a full pass last year they sold it like you can watch all of the games including past editions of vnl and other tournaments on demand for the whole duration of the subscription. But that was a big fucking lie. They pulled and lock a lot of them a few months after the VNL ended.
I was (and still am) able to watch everything there is on VBW, I did the annual sub just before the beginning of Italian League

That's why I asked, it didn't make any sense to me. I guess thay were trying to justify Zehra's award but it's just so nonsensical what they wrote
-
Volleyball.it suggesting that they applied a non-written rule of not giving the MVP to a foreign player. Who were the past seasons' MVPs?
-
but that’s also inherently unfair. Novara/Imoco/Vakifbank can start their market whenever they like because they have more money than everyone else. They get first go at whatever players they want.
This should just be grounds for creating windows when they’re allowed to converse/sign with players.
I know, and I'm not excusing that, but that was not a change mid-way.
I agree that fixed windows for transfers and new rules should be applied for everyone but form an established day (not mid season or at the end of the leagues). Possibly form next year so that managements can decide their strategy and not start with advantage (or disadvantage)
-
I know. But it’s still hypocritical of Novara to be complaining about “level playing fields” when they’re out there poaching players on January from the smaller teams.
also they chose Adams over Washington 🤣🤣 they don’t get any sympathy for thatThat's exactly what they are complaining about ... Since back then there weren't these ideas in the air, they moved accordingly. Also Chieri and Scandicci agree with them that one can't change the rules with market ongoing because the only some teams could benefit from this. Everyone should start the market with the same possibilities.

Excited for Aycin.
Why no Yagmur tho instead of Meryem, Ceren or Tutku at least...
I think (hope) because of the injury she she suffered at the beginning of the season, she came back just before the italian league playoffs and didn't really play at all. If she can play next season I hope she will be called again
-
She played in Brazil (Osasco) this season
Ceren Kestirengoz previously?
-
No big surprises, it's still blasphemy not to have Gizem Orge but we all know the situation. Asli wasn't even at Eurovolley, and neither was Kubra so dunno what to expect. Also, no Beliz.
Who is Ceren Kapucu? Never heard of her...
-
Who are they going to play as main OHs of Scandicci?Pietrini and...???
Mingardi, given how much they are stressing the fact that she can also play as OH...

For the next season women teams will face playoffs to qualify for Challenge cup (the teams partecipating will be the teams placed from 9 to 12 in regular season plus the teams that will lose during quarterfinals)
It also says there will be no more foreign limitations as well as there will not be the "two per federation" rule:
-
Haak looks exhausted, Vargas having the time of her life, Gizem telling everyone she's the best turkish libero (not that anyone had a doubt)
-
Eda is the queenest of them all, she made Terzic smile and got the camera on her for the whole after-game
-
I'm looking here for the live stats, if anyone is interested:
-
Egonu 8 points in 2 sets? 😱
8 errors, she has 15 points
-
MBH with high braid is something I didn't know I needed, so pretty!

Well he did also say "having a lot of followers doesn't matter if there's no results on court". I think it's fair to say that a player with a huge following can help the status of the team.
And for the Novara debacle, the fans complained about Novara signing Gray and Poulter (and it was more along the lines of Novara signing many Busto players in the last few years) and made a poster about it, the club had nothing to do with it
Ah yes, I was referring to the fans, I don't think any club would ever do something like that
I just think it lowers the player that the first thing they say about her coming to Busto (that's still in the top 5 best teams in italy) is that she will help the sponsors. Then nothing wrong in doing marketing campaigns or launching a brand, I was reflecting on the poor (imho) choice of words -
According to this , Busto's president confirmed Rosamaria and Lloyd. Funny thing is that he claims Rosamaria is good for marketing purposes and even talks about instagram's followers
Rosamaria e Carli Lloyd: nova dupla do Busto Arsizio – Web Vôlei (webvolei.com.br)
That's actually pretty sad, I talked with a few other volleyball fans and no one likes how he talked about Rosamaria. Another "funny" thing is that Busto posted a while ago that they were "Italy's most loved team" because that had more followers "even without players with millions of followers". Also, they pretty much made fun Novara when there were the rumors about Gray and Poulter but they nonchalantly signed Rosamaria (and no problem with that, just don't make fun of other teams...)
Sorry for the spam, I just love to gossip a bit
