    I doubt it, especially given that this is a WCH year, which is the one competition Brazil has never won, not even during its golden era.

    And I think people are taking ZRG words too literally, he might've meant that Gabi is the heart of the team and taking her off court could also harm the team spirit. Besides, as of now, there isn't really a player who could sub her and do everything she does with Brazil, even when performing badly in one or two elements.

    Lol since when the Olympics became the single most important competition for football and tennis? (Only Novak cared that much, just because in 2024 he had 0 slams lol).

    Besides you're putting as an example a man who only played one OG at age 19 and a women who seems to never played them.

    Exchange Egonu & Rosamaria and see what Sylla & Gabi will win in NT lol

    There's no if, reality is that Sylla has 3 gold medals at international competitions whereas Gabi has none 😉 and being one of the protagonist not just sitting on the bench or dragging her team down 😀

    imo from Tainara, Jheovana and Kisy we can have a good contribution from Opp on attack as them are more mature right now. Jheovana is the less Experienced player but she can become a solid Opp like Brakocevic . Tainara and Kisy are more mature and ready.

    Idk I see people get excited when the players have good club seasons but so far Tainara and Kisy havent shown much at a NT level. Even when Kisy had a great 2023-24 season and Tainara's season in China was average at best imo.

    kinda reminds me of Italy when they had Egonu and the younger players in 2016 and now they won at Paris.

    Lol. They had Egonu who is perhaps a one in two decades (or even more) type of player. Brazil hasn't been able to produce a player like that since their golden era. And even then it took Italia almost a decade to win a gold medal at a major tournament despite being 'on paper' the best team for a few years now.

    Yang Shu-ming, Wang Ao-qian and Zhang Zi-xuan will still participate in the qualifier of U19 event of Chinese National Games.


    Date: April 15 - April 29

    How did Yang Shu-ming perform? I believe she played for the Shanghai U20 team? She left quite a good impression at the WCH U17.

    I dont think thats a fair assessment and is discrediting the work the athletes (olympian or not) put in.


    (she's 31 fwiw lol)


    but also, who are these middles overseas? dana, obviously. but the only other high level middle overseas is Brionne? the rest of them are in LOVB.

    Wasn't there a salary cap, meaning some of these olympics specially the gold medalists were earning way less than overseas? And that the main reason they went to LOVB was trying to establish a strong league at their home country?

    I wonder where those comments come from, or rather if they are referring to the level of LOVB overall rather than the players not taking seriously or not caring.

    After the golden era for Brazil in womens volleyball has ended in 2016 this is actually the first cycle that i think that Bra might be a real contender in next competitions.


    good players / prospects in every position. Imo Opp dilema Will be solved . Bra needs to develop Setters.

    by whom? (players)
