You guys are the native speakers so correct me if I'm wrong, but it says Taubner will be out for months? That's honestly unfortunate
Was looking forward to her debut in the senior's team as well. Does this mean Bjelica is the sole OPP for this week?
Also quite unfortunate considering Taubner will play (?) in Potsdam next club season so that would also be delayed as well

It was supposed to be:
4 - Vicky Savard, Jonquière, QC
5 - Julia Murmann, Toronto, ON
6 - Jazmine White, Oshawa, ON
7 - Layne Van Buskirk, Windsor, ON
9 - Alexa Gray, Calgary, AB
11 - Andrea Mitrovic, Mississauga, ON
12 - Jennifer Cross, Scarborough, ON13 - Brie King, Langley, BC
14 - Hilary Howe, Calgary, AB
15 - Shaïnah Joseph, Ottawa, ON
16 - Caroline Livingston, Kelowna, BC
17 - Kacey Jost, St. Albert, AB
18 - Kim Robitaille, Repentigny, QC
19 - Emily Maglio, Coquitlam, B.C.
From what I heard, Avery Heppell might replace Cross.
I'm not super familiar with Canadian women's volleyball but wasn't Ogoms lined up before? she's an MB iirc, wonder why she wasn't called up this season
-
Gray is now the team captain for Canada after Cross went back to Canada.
-
Yes, she is only question mark for next season
Are there any rumors that tell which club/s she is negotiating with?

Yes, some of the best players right now are still in the University (maybe half of the NT roster can be University players for Women's) and they are not called to NT, for various reasons.
Apologies for derailing this thread with all these PH NT conversations, so here's my last take on this: In Men's Volleyball, only 1 from the 2019 SEA Games silver medallist team is in the lineup this 2023 SEAG even though the players before are still some of the best players of the Philippines. Only 1 out of 14 with almost everyone begging off. That alone speaks how bad the situation is
Primary reason being that the collegiate league isn't in sync with the FIVB calendar. But this is another conversation for another day
I'm quite pessimistic about the team later but I hope they give a good fight to Indonesia
-
Now the Philipines fans are attacking the management team. What happened?
To add to what volleyb said, there hasn't been any consistent teams even though they wanted to have a "grassroots" program
Also they're just sending club teams to NT tournaments with a few reinforcements from other club teams. The men and women's national teams have been mishandled badly (especially the men's team that won silver in 2019 ASEAN, most of the roster from that tournament declined their NT call for this ASEAN)

Apparently the Cambodia team decided not to show up to the match and the Malaysian team said “ok no problem. We’re already here so we may just as well split into 2 teams and have some fun.”
Can’t make this up
Someone in Twitter who was at the venue said that apparently the team got sick which is why they were not able to play. Personally take that with a grain of salt but hopefully the team (who are made up of young players iirc) don't get too discouraged from this.

Not sure if this has been posted here yet, Garotta reports Uzelac to Fluminense

insane game, perugia catches up on the latter part of the sets but milano still manages to finish the sets. to think that this is just the quarterfinals

This isn't official yet
My bad I got fooled by the Done Deal tag

Haven't been to this thread for a while, great to see insights from everyone! Meanwhile Lozo had a great game today with 29 attacks, 2 blocks, 1 ace (though they lost the match)
Surely the OH pool come VNL would be very competitive. Also I'm expecting that we'll see the younger OHs more this season since there are 3 NT competitions (VNL, OQT, Eurovolley)

This article says Lube is looking for Mozic (and probably Atanasijevic). IIRC Mozic's contract with Verona is until 2025 (if ever, does a buyout happen?)

Wow Piacenza has a 2-0 lead on Perugia
Piacenza actually won
I wasn't able to catch up with the last set but Piacenza's FD looked good in the first 2 sets
