i think if they use her more and do more pattern play, they can do well and also Heungkuk centers play well. i just feel it a waste when they trying hard to get bruna in rhythm, most of her spike way off. i rather have lee han bi or park hyun ju, she play the shortest minute but still can score 2 point and her defend also not that bad in this match.

The coach was too dependent to Lee Jae Young since the first season she managed them... Even the foreigners before were complement for LJY in scoring...She should used her strategy as before by substitute LJY with KYK.. The setter should be trained to be more attuned with KYK in timing and position, because KYK's jumping height and timing is different from most OH...IMO

Seems that KYK experience, leadership, and skills doesn't affected much to win a match... The other players are in low spirits to support her... If they keep playing like this, it's hard to win the play off...

Congrats to Kixx for the 2nd title this season as Regular season champion.....And have a place in grand final match....

Right... okay. Got it! Thanks!

They only won that 1 so far... If they can maintain 1st place, then they will win 2nd title as Regular season champion...

if they win on playoff than final, it's their 3rd title as Champion Season 20/21....

🙋🏻‍♀️ why 3 trophies?

1. regular season

2. spring volleyball (is that a separate one?)

3. ??

*new to vleague

another question, is there a difference between regular season and kovo cup? or kovo cup happens after the regular season ends?

They won KOVO Cup... Pre-season tournament...

wow.... what a tight 4th set,,,, Fatal error by Bruna.. Luckily it's not a crucial match....

They haven't a stable performance.... I hope they can "fix" their problems in playoff...

I think these series of lost by 0-3/1-3 on club level is the first time for KYK .. I hope she can cope with it and help uplift her team low esteem....

Kixx full team is really solid...The way its going now, Kixx chance on become champion skyrocket to 80%.... Lutz is really lucky she can share burdens with Kang SH and Lee SY in scoring...

Unlike Diouf and now Lazareva that had to be "one-man army"...

So, the main choice setters in the teams almost all had problems... LDY suspended, Yeum HS injured, Ahn HJ unstable, now even Cho SH subbed out and her substitute nabbed the MVP of the match.... Kim Da In still hasn't firmed as main, though a lot better than before...

Interesting which of these setters will be called by Lavarini......

Man, straight set lost becoming "normal" result for Pink Spiders.....

No Lee twins for NT...

There are replacements for LJY.. Park JA, KAng SH, Lee SY can be paired with KYK...

Though Park JA usually placed as Kim Hee Jin subtitute by Lavarini... Maybe Pyo SJ is called for height "contribution"...

For setter An Hye Jin, Lee Go Un and Cho SH can be put on rotation.. Yeum HS is currently injured, don't know if she will join for VNL or straight to OG...

For MBs I think it's still the usual suspects: Yang HJ, Kim SJ, n Han SY.. I hope Lee Da Hyun will be called, instead of Lee Ju Ah...

Thank you very much econmtl and theloneracer for the info.....

theloneracer , the YT link on the last match report isn't working.. The page disappear.. The "usual" channels all have taken down all their vids of matches in the last 2 seasons.. There is also one channel that's not just uploaded from SK, but also from China league and Turkey, the channel disappear.. I'm not sure it's deleted or set private...

.So full match vids from 2 yrs ago and older that available in a couple of channels...

The worst lost for Pink Spiders in this season so far... And if it is because internal dispute between key players, I think it's time for the coach and club interfere, to mediate and solve the problem....Otherwise the champion title, that seems not too hard to get before this thing blew up, will fly away....

Not to mention NT...

It's really sad for me.. I'm a big fan of all 3 of them

It is possible, but only if their current team decide not to retain them and they get selected by another team.

There isn't a limit on the number of seasons a player can play in the V-League. However, teams can only renew a foreign player contract for only one addition season before the player have to go through the draft pick process again. So this meaning the foreign player like Diouf and Lutz would have to go through the draft and they could potentially be selected by another team if they want to play another season in South Korea.

Alaina Bergsma is the only player to have played for three consecutive seasons in the V-League for KGC Ginseng (2016-2019) since the introduction of the tryouts. Alaina had to go through the draft selection process again after her second season but luckily for KGC that got the first pick so that how they retain her for a third season.

News out today, is that due to the ongoing covid-19 situation around the world, the tryout or foreign players draft for 2021/2022 season will not be face-to-face. So basically it will be via video link and teams will need to decide on players from videos again. Source: 1

Thanks a lot for the info...

hmmm..I wonder if Diouf n Lutz still interested to play in this league again... maybe if they don't get better offer by teams from Europe league, they will try again.....

I wanna ask: Can foreigner change clubs without try out in the end of their contract? Or she can only resign to her current club, can't resign to other club?

Another question: Is there time limit for foreigner to play in V-league? So far that I know there is no foreigner who play more than 2 seasons..

So, I was right? just 1 of the 3 key players .unavailable Pink Spiders already had a hard time... definitely not good news....

LDY bad knee has to be fixed... Can it be solved by surgery? VNL is coming, not to mention OG... Don't want to have hidden danger....

Heungkuk needs more than 4 VP points to secure the regular league title. Beside this round, there is still Round 6. Korea Expressway and Hyundai E&C have 9 matches remaining whilst the other four teams still have 10 matches remaining from the regular season. Unlikely but GS could still possibly get 30 VP points from their last 10 matches.

Anyway, at the rate Heungkuk is going it is very likely they will set a new record for the best record VP and WIn/Loss for a team in one season.

OK.. thank you for the correction....

I'm surprised that Altos can win v Kixx in last night match... It's getting harder for Kixx with Kang SH injured....

Congrats Lee JY for R4 MVP...

1 more round to go.... Pink Spiders only needs 4 VP to secure #1 place... I don't think it's hard for them, unless 1 of the 3 key players unavailable (Lee twins n KYK)..

Yang HJ and Kim SJ are in their worse season... none of them in top 5 blocking list in R4 and overall..... which they usually dominate...

Change of style affected Lee DY in overall success rate set rank... Lack of middle toss is major factor...

The last match v Kixx she got 6 block pts, though,.. still very good in defense..

I find it "weird" the way they pick MVP sometime... Kim Mi Yeon as MVP is not right, I think... reading the stats, she 's not having good performance.. The plus are her ace and reception...So, they picked her just because that stats?

KGC really really need only 1 other scorer to become a strong contender... Player that can score at least half of Diouf's pts, can improve KGC greatly...

It seems that Hillstate big problem is setter... with only LDY moved, despite other players not change, they can't maintain their last season dominance... now they are in the last place....

Last season Kixx was a solid team.. So strong that reached #2 in the league that neck to neck with #1 Hillstate.. only few loss, less than 5 if I'm not mistaken, until the end of R5 before it was stopped..

Even then Lee So Young injured almost half a season...

This season I thought they are gonna be stronger with Lee SY in play from the start .. not much change of roster..They can win against Pink Spider, but so far they already suffer 6 loss from various teams... Are the other teams also getting stronger? Might be, because beside Pink Spider, the other teams have defeat each other it seems...

It's gonna be interesting.. more competitive... like it should be...

At this rate, if still like this, I don't think Lavarini should call Kim HJ and Kim SJ to NT... Jung Ji Hyun and Lee Da Hyun can replace them if necessary..

MBs already plenty choices: Yang HJ, Han Song Yi, Kim Yu Ri, Han Soo Ji, Park EJ, Lee Ju Ah...So, no problem in that position...

Jung JH if she keeps perform well, can be candidate for OPP...

Anyway, very disappointed with Kim HJ n Kim SJ performance...

Just watched only last 10 pts in Hillstate v Kixx, Jung JH n Lee DH performed very well... It seems Jung JH getting better in her wing spiker position....
