    I understand having much less money but Chemik starting the season with only two OHs insane. I assume that one of the OPPs will be used for either left or right wing substitution (the only one) but still… Hopefully no injury will happen there.

    Will Iga Wasilewska leave Police? She wasn’t playing during the friendly games and now this post on Chemik’s social media which looks like farewell??

    Hmmmm the post clearly indicates that she is leaving. It’s a pity since her & Pierzchała could be one of the strongest MB duos in the league. The question is, is she just retiring (maybe she’s pregnant?) or looking for the new club (it’s pretty late for that but maybe she found something abroad?)

    better to give a chance to our players instead, how do you want to have a good setter in NT if we give the spots to youngsters from other NTs?


    Wenerska and Kowalewska were late bloomers.

    Clubs are not NT and often need to focus on having decent results to even exist. I don’t think there is at the moment any cheap good setter free so if that Serbian youngster is better than our Polish ones there signing her is a good option (especially since almost entire Police team are young local players).


    It’s not like our young setters are not getting any chances since most of our clubs use locals at this position and players like Łazowska, Zaborowska or Bińczyka for example all got chances to play and didn’t show that much.

    That's stupid. We have our own youngsters. :thumbdown:

    Do we have a good youngsters when it comes to setting? I cannot think of anyone really talented outside of our more experienced trio of Wołosz/Wenerska/Kowalewska. When they all retire from NT we can have a serious problem (I don’t really believe in Nowicka and Grabka is quite injury-prone).

    Yeah I remember Kaczorowska being really hated by fans similar case to Grajber tbh when both were pretty weak attackers. It was sad because while she wasn’t good she was still ok especially when it came to serve and reception. I remember her float serve to be quite dangerous.

    I just wonder is it really that easy to get a Turkish nationality? With Vargas case I kinda understand it since she played in Turkey for few years and probably could even live there off season but didn’t Markova just spent half a club season in Turkish League?

    Looks like Siuda in Chemik won’t happen, they are trying to hire a foreign setter.

    Hope they manage to find some decent foreign setter. Despite having small budget the young players they signed are actually quite talented and having experienced Grajber and Wasilewska is a big plus. A good setter who likes to play with middles would be very good for them since I don’t trust Dąbrowska that much.

    They idea of not ever changing the usual leader of the team even if they are playing bad and you are losing is mind blowing to me. It was one of the reasons why Poland lost two days ago and it seems like Ze is doing the same thing as Lavarini lol

    Gabi should be subbed tbh. Her attacking efficiency is really bad and because she normally is the leader of the team she still gets a lot of balls. I would try Bergman to see if she could bring something more.

    I read somewhere that it might be last Olympics of korneluk. Is it true? She is still kinda young, she will be 34 in LA which is not an old age for middles (gattaz, eda, ravva, Daniele Scott etc)

    I think that if she is healthy she will stay for LA.

    Yeah, the only one that I would consider to be better than Gałkowska is Szczurowska but she won’t challenge Stysiak at any point (who still is young and will play in our NT for probably at least 2 Olympic cycles)

    Tbh in last few years when Macris was a starter I found her game pretty boring too and she didn’t play with middles that much either (except maybe with Gattaz). Do you think that maybe it can be because of Ze Roberto setting strategy? Both Roberta & Macris tend to run the middles quite a lot during club seasons it’s just kinda weird that when they are in NT they lowkey ignore them.

    We desperately need a better training in the youth categories when it comes to reception and defence. At this moment we have one OH with solid/good reception (Górecka) and no one new is showing up in Tauron Liga tbh.

    All things consider our girls did amazing job making quarterfinals so congrats to them. Yes Stysiak had horrible form in this Olympics but she was the reason we made it here and if she is not playing well it’s the coach’s responsibility to made good decisions and give a chance for the players that are in form and can replace her.
