Zhu after her wrist surgery in her 30s is nowhere near the player when she carried China to olympic gold 9 years ago and killed OOS balls like she was in system.
her stats are impressive considering the stage of her career.
-
They'll probably be unbanned in time for the semis.
This tournament is way too stretched out.
-
Name a more iconic duo, Herbots and getting blocked straight down.

Does someone have a background on Chen and the other young MB on the senior roster beside Wang Aoqian. They don't wow me in attack or block. They have a longer way to go compared to the young setter. Right now Yuan in middle would be a massive upgrade for this roster at WCH.
But also Gao Yi with the slide could be an improvement they need on the right.
-
Vos ball control in the back court non existent lol.
Van Aalen already done with having to sprint all over the court.
-
So far Dutch pins love to hit into the net or get roofed with a single block in front.
And team should be banned from swinging on overpasses.
-
The Dutch could really use a libero like Gelin, an OPP like Iman, and OH like Cazaute. Lol
Sylves is also better than these Dutch middles.
France squad this week is just better.
Daalderop kinda invisible, as captain she could do more to keep energy on court.
Dutch defense and blocking was bad.
-
Please get off Gerritsen! She only gets tooled by the block and can't score a single point in attack... Also Reesink making mistake after mistake, but or back-up libero in regular jerdey
Reesink needs the reps so maybe she will be less horrible when she gets to Schwerin.
Hester won't get a fair chance.
-
I remember somebody pointing out last year that opposites overperform against China and it is on full display here with China making Caratasu look like Boskovic.
-
well that turnaround came out of nowhere, but then again 5 sets is always expected for DOM
Great setting from Van Aalen at the end.
-
NL got like 10 free balls in two rallies and lost both. Wow
You can't beat DOM in duel of chaos. Lol
-
Reesink to Koslowski is what Wang Yunlu was to Cai Bin. Though Wang Yunlu would do better at libero lol
Reesink is passing 7% positive on 14 attempts.
-
Yuan and Korneluk are both very good, not sure why should bring any of them down..
-
With Daalderop injured, Hester is the the best OH of this week 1 roster. She had good seasons as starter in top teams in Germany and Greece vs other three OHs with no or barely any experience outside NL/Belgium.
If you don't ler her play libero and put her in OH jersey vs Japan. Why not let her play as OH? Especially when nobody can pass, and also expect her to be equal or better offensively than the others.
If she only trained as libero, then why have her behind Reesink still?
I only watched the highlights vid, and Reesink got aces three times in that.
-
China skipping an entire generation and going straight to 16 year olds. I was still waiting for Wang Yindi to happen...lol
Daalderop in libero jersey and Hester Jasper in regular jersey, bad start from Koslowski this summer...
Edit: Daalderop having some shoulder problems
It is easy to get brownie points talking about mental health in the Dutch media and not about his #choices.
-
I believe Plak and Knip are good friends, so she might also be unhappy about how Knip was treated.
Interesting to see critical article about Koslowski in Dutch media. But I agree with the points that Buijs should have seen more court time once included in roster and he should have selected 2 setters before VNL or at least communicated better.
And hope we get to see Hester in action at libero to see ourselves which libero is better.

Rooting for Elena Scott to be there also then.

Seems like Sullivan is gonna have a bunch of players in the gym, beyond the wide roster.
or his position quotas are just very... whack
looks like Lauren Briseno (L) is there. She was one of the top passers in the NCAA over the past two years.
