To me Zehra is more locked than Carol, Zehra has been way better attacker than Carol in this tournament. Indeed, second best MB could go to Eda if she keeps the same performance of the match against Thailand.

Ebrar's post is NOT an apology. She just says "that's what I do, and that's what I will keep doing, just deal with it"

volleyball is such a civilized game due to the fact that it is not a contact sport. But such manners make the sport look ugly. When I first start to play volleyball, one of the first things I was taught by my trainers was DO NOT cheer towards the opponent, turn your back to your teammates and do whatever cheering you want to do. I thought this is also in the rule book of referees. They shouldn't tolerate her behavior.

Ebrar is literally Ngapeth of female volleyball. Even if she will ever develop to a great player, which I doubt with such lazy ass attitude, she will never be remembered as a classy player like Eda or Naz

She's like an over the top version of Nishida. I don't know why she always does that almost barbaric gesture every time she scores. It may be her thing or whatever but she could at least tone it down. She looks like one of those wrestlers it's just so cringe.

Quote from motodle

I'm only using Google Translate but according to this article, there is some drama between Cesar and the clubs' coaches. None of the coaches wants to release their players it seems.

KOVO's strategy evaluation and recruitment department needs major overhaul. They've made so many missteps already.

Quote from voly

Young Yuichi Nakagaichi looks like Hayashi from the women's team omg

I see it especially those uneven eyes

Quote from fire_cai_bin

Do you or do you not understand what a salary cap is? She definitely cut her own salary when she returned to the twins' team. I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again also.

They didn't say cap. They said cut her salary less than what she's supposed to be paid.

Yoonjoo has not yet played for some reason. I thought she would be a starter.

Quote from Irina

wtf. I've heard about the crazy working environment of Japan but this one sounds even sadder. Some of their top players deserve to play somewhere. I'm sure Korea's salary cap for imports would still be better for them.

Didn't you say that KYK cut her salary in half because her team lack the budget to pay their players? that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. I had to look it up and found that mydaily article and nothing there indicated she had cut her salary in half. But then you went on to post a whole thesis about COREa that was TLDR and missed out on the sarcasm about core Africa.

So many lies

Someone said KYK cut her salary because her club can't pay her team?

Quote from Zack Fair

Tbh, I couldn't think of anyone who can play abroad except KYK. Plus I don't believe that the Korean League pay their athletes well coz when KYK went back there, she had to cut her salary so that her team still has enough money to pay her teammates.

KOVO said on June 30 that "After the women's team unveiled player salaries from the 2020-2021 season, the men's team has also decided to disclose the salaries and options of all players from this season."

However, many problems were exposed in the women's team when comparing salaries. KOVO has completed the registration of players except for some players who participated in the 2022 Volleyball Nations League (VNL).

As a result, Heungkuk Life Insurance's Kim Yeon-Kyung was named the women's top conservative player with an annual salary of 450 million won and an option of 250 million won.

However, Lee Soyoung of KGC Ginseng Corporation succeeded Kim Yeon-Kyung. She received a total of 650 million won in annual salary of 450 million won and 200 million won in options.

Quote from yudeko

Its good that they brought back Hanes.

What happened to Patch btw? is he still injured?

Quote from forzalube

Is Kim Yeon-Koung still single?

Highly unlikely. I'm sure she has her special someone that the public may never know about.

Quote from Sidney

I honestly prefer Natinha because she seems to be better overall. ANd I think she has been playing very great in defense. Sometimes Nyeme likes to try to "overdo" (I can't find the right word) when defending and it's annoying.

I like both liberos. For some reason that one game where I think Nyeme overrolled herself even when the ball's impact wasn't that hard kills me. Initially I thought she reminded me a bit of Brenda Castillo but she's a little more like Kobata.

Quote from quadxel

Right, her regression was obvious compared to last year's. Was anyone able to watch her during the club season? Idk if club season affected her or not but like

How bad was she during club season?

Quote from Madden54

she’s been Serbias overall best player this VNL. In my opinion

She's gotten a lot faster and more agile now which is always good

That article didn't go into detail about what she's capable of other than having confidence which is surely being tested. It says she didn't join the first week because she was late for the initial training camp with the NT.

I only remember parts of Airi when she first joined. I can't remember how well she did back then not that it really matters now.

Quote from sitenoise

without mayu? or koga?

I wonder why Airi didn't get a shot

Without Mayu.

I know some here were wondering if she would get more participation since she barely had any during the first 2 weeks but perhaps it would have been better for her to start then than now when all the teams middles are fully in effect.

Quote from sitenoise

I'm not going to defend Mayu because I don't really like her and anybody who's been paying attention here for the past few years knows that. From her crying eyes in HS, to stealing the U20 MVP from the far more deserving YOLO, to her loser face with Toray, to ketchup inside an omelette, to her present day hairstyle malfunction

but check the stats. It wasn't Mayu

In the end, I think the whole thing was ugly but not deadly

But Hayashi looked cool, and better than her actual stats. And frankly, that's something. Everybody else looked kind of lost. And that matters

It's not Mayu but she didn't look good either today and not just because they lost. Koga always looks good regardless whether they win or lose. But to me personally they could have done without her in this match against Serbia.

Quote from sean1

The only reliable crackhead. Kojima cracked a little.

That should really say something. Is their plan to exhaust Mayu even if she gets blocked a thousand times over in the hopes that she eventually scores some enough for Japan

Quote from Irina

I don't think Japan intended to lose to Serbia. they really look like they're struggling

Wtf are you saying of course they don't "intend" to lose against anyone. This is some youtube level trolling.

They had no problem defeating Serbia last year and it's the same squad just with Mihajlovic playing this time

Inoue kinda burned out. Mayu is great in her own way but not for teams that have solid walls on the net. She doesn't even try to avoid blockers.

Uchiseto has to go.
