Pia Kästner needed surgery on her thumb after an injury she sustained during club season. She's out for the whole VNL but hopes to be ready for ECH.
Mette Pfeffer is in NT training, today I saw her in some picture with other players.
I feel like Kästner has been injured more than she was healthy for some years now
Finally Simone Lee
Did Bajema and Frantti retire from NT? Or doesn't S*ullivan like them either?
Didn't she renew her contract with Chieri?
I think there were rumors of her going to Poland (Budlowani Lodz)
What's the libero situation? is there a better option this time?
Best option would be Hester Jasper if she's healthy again. But:
- She needs to develop and train more to be comfortable on libero position
- Needs to fully commit and be motivated (which potentially is not the case since she has always been OH)
Pippa Molenaar is a talent playing in the Bundesliga. I hope to see her making some VNL minutes this year
Did Dagmar play in the Dutch league this spring?
I thought she was an interesting player in the ncaa
not better than like Jansen, but interesting nonetheless
Jup she returned to her former team Dynamo Apeldoorn. She said in an interview that going to the states was worth the risk, but on second thought it wasn't really her thing. She couldn't really settle there and missed her family and friends.
She was/is a big prospect here, but I guess Felix wants to see more of her

Missing players as opposed to earlier years:
S: Lyklema (seems to be injured)
OH: Buijs (retired from NT)
OPP: Scholten (unknown), Plak (not available)
MB: Polder (unknown, probably done with NT), Lohuis (done?)
L: Brokking (was never in senior NT, but is starter in French league)
Our pool of opposites is rather thin. Van de Vosse had a good season in Romania (champion). Dambrink was a bench warmer but seems to aim to be a starter in the Polish league.
New year, new thread 
Let's start with the bad news: Nika is walking with crutches in a video I saw on Conegliano's IG. She sustained the injury in the last point of the 4th set in Saturday's CL semifinal. I hope it won't affect her summer with the national team too much
39 year old Adenizia getting MVP. Iconic
Nika got in injured on her leg during defence in that last point. Her upper leg seems to be taped in now
The fact you can never count out Vakifbank/Guidetti is a fact that should be seriously studied. The were near dead in the 3rd set
Ok that was the last time I commented on a players good performance. Poor Dangubic. It definitely looked like an acl snap in her left knee
Dangubic is playing the match you dream about as a substitute player
"If your playing style could be described as a fruit, what would it be?"
Ebrar: "strawberry, because I want to be more sweet in the court" 😂😂
I like the self-mockery
Display MoreLaura Dijkema to Panionios
Dijkema, Di Iulio
Busa, Vasilantonaki, Vasileva
Kubura
Samadan, Zakchaiou
Xanthopoulou
Zakxhaiou and Kubura count as Greek, but still they have one more foreign than allowed
Dijkema herself said she signed in the US for another season. So unless things changed, the rumor is false
Bravo Conegliano and Nika🥰🏆
Moki with some incredible defense there
Timmerman has an agreement with Panathinaikos.
Fedusio and White have renewed.
She could easily play in a better league but I get that she wants be starter after a seaon on the bench
I couldn't watch the match today (hope to catch up soon), but what a image shift Derya had tonight lol. First posts were hating on Guidetti for starting her and couple of pages later she's everyones MVP
Fener winning with Arelya is giving Scandicci winning with Bechis vibes
Baijens to THY
(They already have Bahar, Karmen, Beyza)
What in the Magdalena Stysiak is she doing with her career smh
