Stumler looks taller than 6'1 to me. Lilley has really improved a lot. Some of her skills don't like from a college setter.
How tall is Stumbler? She's been so good.
Poulter should be the second best setter after Wolosz. For Hancock, I am not very impressed. I mean - she's good and she gets her job done (most of the time), but she's not like Poulter who really elevated her team.
so next year we have savino x vitra in cev cup 😑
No, it's Busto, which is 4th place in regular season. Savino will be in challenge cup
I agree with an earlier argument - US outsides are generally good passers, so as long as JWO doesn't crush, there's value in bringing her as she's better at floor defense than Courtney. I can't stand Courtney not able to save so many tips.
good. Wilhite to Imoco would be messy and a poor move.
I like this rumor. Wilhite will spend most of her time on the bench if she goes to Conegliano because they already have Sylla. And she and Sylla cannot start together due to the liability on reception. She's more likely to secure a starting spot in Fenerbahce.
Is that Dana Rettke music I hear?
OMG I would LOVE this!
Who won the match?
With Egnou 42 points in four sets, it's really impossible for any opponent team of Imoco to play spectacularly lol. Busto wasn't even bad today but still can't give Imoco more than 1 set of challenge. Vakif may pull up a good fight against Imoco, but for any other Italian teams, they need to be more than 100% just like Scandicci the other day.
Is it? Because savino and busto have tied win-losses and points but savino has more winning sets that busto.
No, it's the other way around, Busto has a higher set ratio than Scandicci.
THe fact that a setter is doing well in Serie A doesn't mean she will do well in Eczacıbasi (Lloyd was amazing in Italy and look how she played in Turkey)
The last time Lloyd was playing well in Serie A1 was 2016; The year she went to Vitra was 2019, she was already past her prime. Poulter is still getting better, she's not even 24 yet. I don't think Lloyd's failure in Eczacibasi is applicable to Poulter's situation.
But, I want to see Poulter staying with Busto. Going to a top Turkish league means she won't be able to play full-time, which is very important for a young player's development.
If Ebrar is really leaving, THY will need a strong Opp. So why not? Also nilufer needs an Opp for next season.
Agreed, a mid-to-top tier Turkish club could be a good fit for KP. Basically, apart from the top 3 clubs, any other top Turkish club can use Plummer's attacking capability.
Why are we referring to Sheilla as "some mom from Brasil"? Is there a reference?
She's being seen by a trainer.... I didnt notice anything
Hopefully nothing serious. But players are right to be cautious. I really want to see this tournament with no more injuries.
Display MoreWell I heard busto gonna bid for her
And if she don't go abroad thing that I didn't hear about (weird coz she's good)
She probably stay at busto
If we look top 4th teams have her starting setters already defined for next season (wolosz,orro,malinov and hancock) I doubt that she gonna go to be bench
Even cheri seems likely renew with bosio
Chieri already renewed with Bosio. Bosio is really good this season, good move by Chieri.
I think it would also be good for Poulter if she stays in Busto. Their new coach is pretty good. But if Busto wants to get a CL spot next season, they need to upgrade their team. But there's no rumor about Busto right now..I guess they just don't have the budget like Monza.
Please no more injuries!
I like busto but I hope they lose next game
Chieri deserve to play an European Cup
This is absurd. Chieri could've been comfortably at 4th place if they hadn't lost to Firenze, Perugia and lost a point to Trentino in the second half. If they miss the opportunity to play in CEV Cups and are placed at 6th, this is exactly what they deserve.
That set from Poulter to Stevanovic! So bold and so beautiful
