The first referee for Piazenca-JW match is horrible. The court invasion from Brizard was so obvious, but the first referee wouldn't even allow a net touch challenge from JW to reveiw it.

News from Noavara
Bonifacio, Fersino, Orthmann, Akimova, Bosio are staying.
Squarcini, Aleksic, Ishikawa and Kadochkina are joining.I think Orthmann's two-year contract was postponed for one year, starting from next season. There is also rumor that Alsmeier is joining. But I found it's rather impossible, since her contract is owned by Conegliano.
Now the OH lineup is Orthmann, Ishikawa, and Kadochkina. If someone with better reception joins, it would be a good lineup. Moreover, I hope Buijs stays as backup OPP/OH. But it's rather difficult. I think she wants to be in the same team with Carol. The MB lineup will be Bonifacio, Aleksic, Squarcini, and maybe Mazzaro. It's not bad. But it would have been better if Chirichella stays.
I think the total foreign players will not exceed 7. The Brie King rumor has been circling around for some time. If Brie King joins, there should be at least one Italian OH/OPP.

In the men's volleyball Bundesliga it is now semi-professional. Teams like Bitterfeld-Wolfen have a lower budget than Neuwied
They have five foreign players. Do they also have another job? Probably only some of the German players are working part time for the club.
I believe most of the players in the first league are professional.

It is rumored that Scandicci is gone make offer for Parrocchiale because She is gone be benched when Brenda came in Milano
If Scandicci transfers Parrochiale, I don't think she will be able to get a new licence to play for Scandicci in Champions League.
However, I'm not sure if 33.1 §3 a applies for all club matches or only CEV matches. If it's the latter one, then there is still chance to get the licence.
"33.1 §3 In a season of the Club competitions, the Player licence is included in only one CEV collective licence approved by the CEV. Notwithstanding the above-mentioned, a Player licence may be removed from one CEV collective licence in order to be included in another one as follows:
a. At any time, when the Player never played a match with the previous club"

Zaytsev playing OH is like a disater for Lube. His attacking at position 4 has been weak for some years. Lagumdzija's attacking data was also very bad. The only good one was Nikolov, but his reception was still a problem.
I would say the best lineup for Lube is the lineup they had last season during the playoff stage, Nikolov and Yant as OHs and Zaytsev as receiving OPP who stands next to Nikolov. Zaytsev's attacking at postion 2 is far better than position 4. However, this will increase the load on Zaytsev a lot, which is not ideal for a 35-year-old veteran. If they want to keep using Zaytsev as OH, then the OPP should be able to kill more balls.

Germany enter Top 10. When was last time that German NT ranked top 10?
-
Someone should do a chart comparing the german performances with and without Grozer. The difference is massive, I don't know any other team that inconsistent in relation to a single player.
Netherlands with and without Nimir

IMO Brazil isn’t with a great pool of OH due to the lack of investment / support in Youth Program.
Taking Honorato wasn’t a really bad idea imo. He can be a good defensive OH in near future. He was really bad today but that’s ok imo.
But taking Honorato, Adriano (Who didn’t prove himself in International level yet) and Lukas Bergman ( a young guy with good fundaments but far from ready) was a huge mistake. Renan was counting just with Lucarelli.
Douglas Souza doesn’t accept invitation for NT and besides Lucarelli and Leal he is the only one ready for international level imo.
There is a lot of players who can play on the level of Honorato and Adriano.
But for sure Brazil has a lot of better options than Lukas Bergman.
Then that was difficult situation.
Brazil still has promising OHs like Bergman and Arthur. -
-
Adriano and Honorato without a point just showed that Renan knew that Bergman was not ready for this.
I'm shocked. There is no better OH that these two?
-
Renan has been in NT for years now and he is putting BRA NT in another level.
Yes, I guess the lowest ever.
-
The next match for Germany is less than 13 hours.
Winiarski, please let Grozer rest.
-
Congrats to Germany!
-
Tille lack experiences.
-
I guess Renan really misses Leal.
-
Renan doesn't trust Fernando? Of course he has disadvantages at the front court. But maybe he can change the rythem.
-
for sure. Bruno can set properly in the middle but in the pins he is far from doing a good job
Yes. Especially to position 4, inconsistent.
-
The connection between Bruno and Lucas is still amazing. But Bruno's level has dropped a lot in recent years.
-
FIVB must to work on bad decisions made by challenge system. A point for German NT was stolen.
I also didn't see the shoe touch the net, even with the zoom window. But clearly Germany got effected by the bad call.

Cuba looked better comparing to VNL. However, still inconsistent and many errors.
