About setters there aren't any other options. If either Straube or Kästner won't play (parts of) the summer, the race for backup setter is wide open. Personally I'd like to see Jordan getting some chances because I see more talent in her than in Glaab or Kohn.
Are you gatekeeping info
Honestly I hate to see Kohn. Her awareness near the net has got to be one of the worst I've seen and she's also just a mess.... Not good at all for middles and just pressure in general
But the German league still has Kastner and also Kohn who are in the national team. Kastner is a veteran and also of course a good talent from your league. There's no need to hoard setters? What's that about...
What If Straube ends up skipping NT season?
I'm so confused as to what is happening. She's healthy, she even looks like she put on some weight in a good way. She didn't leave Italy injured and at the same time she's been attending Dresdner's games there's nothing wrong with that. What seems to be the problem?
I don't think Pia should be a starter anymore. Straube has grown a lot at San Giovanni.
The article wrote "that she will INDEED" which means it's arleady certain that she will return... or is it?
Straube aside, the same also goes for Kindermann no? I mean surely she's gotten offers in Italy as well. She did good for her debut despite it being a late signing.
Piva-Cristina trade
Nah Apple is American not Brazilian
And you have to remember that for Italians pasta is sacred and some gourmet pasta cost the same price or more than an apple laptop
But ugh I can't imagine Milano doing all that just for a player who signed for 1 season and is not even with the senior team
Italy's football is headed by a bigot no wonder it's regressing
Who will take over as Firenze's setter?
Any word on whether or not Alsmeier will renew with Novara? and where Straube might end up?
I saw a fancam of Alsmeier crying extra hard after their last match and the comments were all assuming it's because she's probably leaving
Alsmeier is always crying so that doesn't really say much
Yao Di? is she not retired. She hasn't been on the radar for years and she's way too old to make a comeback
There are some crazy rumours on volleybox about the league. Kindermann and Straube to Dresden, Jaksetic to Aachen. But they seem to have no reliable source. I can't imagine Straube to come back to Dresden.
At least the rumours about Stautz to Suhl can be true.
I don't use volleybox where did you see it?
That would kill Straube's entire career especially as she is one of the most promising new setters around why would she go back to German league?!?
So regarding Tolok as OH I think the bigger challenge is that Novara's setter is Cambi who is not someone that will bring out her abilities. And what about Barbolini? he has to have some sort of say in this too because obviously he has to consider whether or not this experiment will be beneficial for the team or too much of a risk. Just look at Novara's recent articles their execs are extremely disappointed by the club's season and they obviously want things to change but I doubt Tolok switching to OH is on their bingo card.
Kochurina with three blocks in a row at crucial moments on match point. Straube was loading Zhuang too much in the last two points, with Obossa front court. She should have went to her Opp, with Parra front court.
Straube can't really count on Brancher. She couldn't do a damn thing and kept getting blocked since the 1st set. Piovesan was their main go-to before Zhuang but they're keeping her condition stable for playoffs with her just returning to form.
Brancher is short and kinda old on top of being slow.
Will it be streamed? someone drop links
Who do you think are the most popular women’s volleyball players at the moment? I'm talking pure global name recognition, not talent. It’s difficult for me to figure out because some players are more popular in certain regions than in others. For the men the answer is easier since the Japanese players have surged in popularity compared to the rest in recent years.
The Nikolovs are now bigger than ishikawa nishida and rant because of their recent achievements. Nishida went viral for that insanely touching floor sliding apology he did that even non-volleyball fans are still swooning over it until now but unless Japan actually does well I think they're already overshadowed by Italian men's NT and Nikolovs.
Do we know if Cambi is renewing lol
she is
thank heavens bernardi is leaving
This is the comment I responded to. It was literally rebutting that Italy was NOT a country known to be against "diversity" because they have black athletes (and an Argentinian for some reason) in the NT. So yes, the commenter was literally ignoring those things. Maybe read what I wrote and in response to what, before you start ranting. I don't care if you believe Malual, nor what you call me in threads, you don't know me .
What is your fucking problem?
My comment was a counter to ValeFoppa saying that Italy is against diversity when that's not true at all. I never said racism doesn't exist. Work on your reading comprehension
It was a nice run for San Giovanni they did well for a team with a very limited roster
glad they're finally safe from relegation
You didn't get me, my post was not regarding Italian NT, it was a more general statement regarding that is not uncommon to hear racist things during sport matches or in general in everyday life.
No but like I said if it's a country with serious issues about diversity it would also reflect in their own national team. It's not mutually exclusive.
