The receiving is atrocious.

How can there be a block in the gap on such a high set!?!? I don't get it. Boring sets.
-
It just show how dominating italian volleyball is when they are winning with just one foreign player !
-
No middle play from any of the teams..
-
I must say PFU is impressive. They don't seem to have any foreign player outside of Asia?
-
Why doesn't he try Ishikawa as OH1, since she gets through the most with her attack of the OH, and Alsmeier will be facing Antropova in front row for a taller block as OH2?
-
but playing as good as Avery 😆
Not in receiving though
-
Stigrot couldn't pass this set even if her life depended on it xD
-
I think you both have good points please calm down. 😄 I think Skinner do make a huge difference for Scandicci that could tip the game to their favour. However, Novara is looking alot better now when they have realized they need ishikawa to stabilize their game, defense and receiving. If Alsmeier and Ishikawa gets going as last year they should win, they are not there yet though partly because I dont think they sync perfectly with the setter.
-
I dont understand why they don't try Ishikawa on OH1 when she is delivering much better than Alsmeier and Herbots. It would just be even better since she would mostly be against setter front court and not the right side spiker.
-
Seki is just improving all of the spikers in UYBA so much.
-
Does anyone know why Busto is playing with Diouf? She is not for this level.
-
She has a good character to play - she is very fierce and mentally strong - a bit like Antropova, Boskovic, etc. In Italy that`s called: "grinta". Besides, I won't be surprised if in 1-2 years she'll be somewhere in Turkey... Tolok will probably be the first OP in Russia's NT? Who else do they have there? Akimova?
I love Tolok but if they start her alongside Federotseva and Markova they really solidify that russian stereotype of 100% attack 0% defense. Usually that doesnt work out great.
-
It feels like Scandicci is at least controlling Markova alot better now. Her efficiency has gone down alot.
-
I'm telling you Lorenne is the secret weapon. It worked for Brazil coming out of the bench.
So true !
But also the second setter connection with her middles. -
This double sub really has been a game changer.
-
novara switched up their rotation to have Ishikawa not be infront with Egonu. Clever strategy even if it meant starting with Tolok in backrow. They need Ishikawa for their receive and defense, they play a faster game with her on the court.
-
maybe its only partially torn? idk. she's delaying surgery until the off season.
Thats quite stupid though
-
These middles from a&m are winning their matches. Was how they won against Nebraska also. Its been a season of middle domination.
-
Is Novara vs Busto one setter outplaying the other one or what do you guys think?
