This DR team would get swept by Thailand and Korea.

Another impressive win by China without playing Gong or Wang YY. After bad start of the week and 5 sets vs THA.

Surprising sweep by China.

Wang AQ , another great showing at 18 years old.

Thought Knollema was going to be the offensive leader of this team but she is a shadow of the player in Firenze.

If anyone thought Koslowski play another libero after kicking Reesink out of Schwerin. Think again

Any reason why Bongaerts start against Italy? I prefer her coming off bench.

Baijens has 18 points.. not blaming her lol

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.

Quote from Let's go orange

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.
