    bummed about Gray's issues in Ecsa. It seems like this team is just doomed. Tica was also seen having a meltdown on court and yelling (?) at the technical team.. i guess she finally got tired of their incompetence.


    I guess they're right about nature has a way of balancing things. Some talented players are "balanced" by their difficult personality, lack of motivation etc. I really thought Pietrini is just wasted by whatever mental gymnastics she's going through. Then Egonu with her me me personality.

    so egonu is problematic because she wants to be more in control of her career. pietrini is problematic because some user here doesn't like her


    meanwhile your favorite players are actual bullies who fucked up their own teammates for years and tried to blackmail kim yeon koung but apparently that's okay because they're your favorite players

    many things can be true at the same time. Egonu can be problematic and those Koreans can also be problematic. Everywhere Egonu goes, there seems to be a bit of a drama involving her. this is not the whataboutism you think it is. those Koreans' problems doesn't make Egonu's problems any less.


    although I don't know why you seem to think KYK is innocent in that problem. they never invistigated it after all. she threatened any youtuber from covering it and she was extremely dismissive in that chat the twins released. but anyway..

    I can't believe we still don't have coach announcements yet I thought it would be by this month


    Does anyone else watch LOVB? Kojima is in such a good shape. I think her form is better than Fukudome. Kojima could still be good until LA.

    LOVB will be in January

    now it pisses me off more that women had to retire in Japan when they get married

    i think he was fired.

    The team performance was bad last year and still mediocre now. Would have been easier if they just got another player other than Bergman really. I think that's the root of their problems. He insisted on her despite her subpar performance.

    I heard from a friend Plummer was leaving for sure. Everybody knew since the very first day of the last season she and Robinson would be leaving and there was no way to keep them any longer. Robinson was already known as founding player of a LOVB team, but Plummer had multiple offers (from LOVB, Asia and Turkey; there was also a rumor abour Scandicci I'm not sure about) and picked Eczacibasi after Xmas.


    The injury is real and happened in the summer; according to some rumors, just before the OGs. She was supposed to join Eczacibasi just few weeks later in order to have her honeymoon, but then the injury happened and she may not be able to play before 2025.

    Speaking of the american leagues, do they have a thread here?

    Why would Eczacıbaşı lie though? They could have just said the transfer is only for second half like Fenerbahçe did with Arina. Nothing is wrong with that. I think Twitter warriors are just looking for a scapegoat to put the blame on.

    exactly. what's the point of the drama. besides, I think Plummer got a better offer from Ecsa that's why she left Imoco. or better flexibility etc. Zhu is the model for the sponsors of Imoco's businesses in China. that's a big market.

    Turkey is having ban after ban recently, don't get it twisted Ustundag is "pro government" but that puppet could as well shut down the entire women's volleyball system, likely force more funding towards the men's side... And I believe he will if he wins.

    why would they do that to their cash cow? volleyball in turkiye is women's volleyball.

    Some people on ig are saying that Scandicci were hoping to naturalize Herbots but it didn't work out? I never heard of that rumor, so not sure if it's a real thing or just BS.


    Still doesn't explain why they let Villani go to Novara and why they fired Antiga.

    I think this can't happen since she'd have to change her sports federation. Which would remove her from Belgium NT.

    KYK's achievements > that twin's miniscule contribution to Korean volleyball and volleyball in general. Nobody's gonna miss her except maybe you and other drama enthusiasts from stan twitter

    see this kind of thinking? the issue here is abuse and you are throwing KYK's achivements as if that negates whatever abuse she allegedly committed. did you even think before you typed this? and no, the twins did have a significant contribution. they'd surely be better off with them even if KYK retired than their current position now. now, Korean NT is feeling the karma.
