isn't Dixon officially in Monza?
any news about p.tapp and wopat?
i heard of p.tapp is still training in USA? for what?
besides, where Wopat will be?
I was thinking limit for foreign players in one team is 2. Did they change the rule?
the rule is that no limination to the number of players transferred from other federations (foreign players), however,
Women Super-League: only two (2) foreign players could be sent in court at a time.
Men Super-League: only two (2) foreign players can be sent in court for the 1st to 6th ranked clubs last league season, while, maxium three (3) foreign players can be sent in court for the lower ranks (7th to 14th) last league season.
therefore, at least one of them (Carrillo, Bursac, Yaneva) will sit in bench
Beijing BAIC Motors invites another USA middle blocker, but the name has not been officially announced yet.
It is widely believed that the new comer would not be Harmotto or Dixon.
I guess it could be either Paige Tapp (USNT member in 2017) or Wopat (Japan V League in 2016-17), lets see.
any news from other sources or rumors, guys?
Any news about where the following players will play this year: Joyce Silva (Joycinha), Aneta Havlickova, Jovana Brakocevic, Onuma Sittirak, Brenda Castillo, Nancy Carrillo, Laura Dijkema, or Kelly Murphy?
Carrillo will play in China Super League again, for Guangdong Evergrande this time.
Along with her, Yaneva from Bulgaria and Bursac from Serbia.
Beijing BAIC motors invites another USA middle blocker, but the name has not been announced yet.
It is widely believed that Harmotto and Dixon are excluded for any possibilities.

Won`t be Busa, she`s playing for Chemik. Maybe Bjelica?
Nothing about Busa....
its called Bursac from Serbia, used to be the outsidehitter of Cannes. The other two could be Carrillo and Yaneva...
New Coach of Evergrande is Mr. Fang Yan, the former HC of Cannes Racing Club. therefore its understandable to invite so many cannes players.
We are still waiting for the final official annoucement yet.
KYK wasnt in the roster. She is in Japan as one of the staff tho.
i noticed Kim's instagram, in which she showed her fotos with others, but with a yellow entry card in front of her chest. which means she is the special staff of Korea or the distinguished guest from the organiser. such entry card looks quite silimiar to Lang Ping's, China General Coach.
This is not good. Respect other teams and send your strong team, although their strong team is not enough, this team will just be a nightmare to watch. Why did you accept the wild card if you would send your young team?
lol...take it easy man... 
its not an important tournament, which will not even award a single WR point.
but it is still big fun to watch such an annual big party close after the olympics, to test which team is conducted in a sustainable way.
we are delighted to see veterans coming back and youngsters growing fast...
Anything on the USANT?
apparently the same roster with USA Cup if you read this.
China Final 14 players:
http://sports.ifeng.com/a/20170831/51823849_0.shtml
S: Ding Xia, Diao Linyu, Yao Di
OP: Gong Xiangyu, Zeng Chunlei
OH: Zhu Ting, Zhang Changning, Liu Xiaotong
MB: Yan Ni, Yuan Xinyue, Zheng Yixin, Wang Chenyue
L: Lin Li, Wang Mengjie
8 Rio-Olympic gold winners will work together again to fight for the champion trophy...
Do we have official final roster for China and Korea?
Korea 14 are all young players, so they will be definately the last place...
S: Lee Jaeeun, Lee Goeun
OP: Hwang Minkyoung, Ha Hyejin
OH: Lee Jaeyeong, Yoo Seoyeun, Choi Subin, Jeon Saeyan
MB: Kim Suji, Kim Yuri, HAN Sooji, Jeong Siyoung
L: Na Hyunjung, Kim Yeongyeon
Lee Jaeyeong has been away from NT for some while due to injury, now she came back.
and some other players took part in the WGP G2 and AVC championships, however, generally very lacking of experience.
Brasil team has arrived immediately in Japan after USA Cup to adapt the time, climate and food...
observing the friendly between USA and Brasil, we could guess the 14 players could be as follows if Ze Roberto didnt make any adjustments
S: Roberta, Naine
OP: Tandara, Monique
OH: Natalia, Gabi Guimareas, Rasamaria, Amanda
MB: Bia, Carol, Mara, Saraelen
L: Gabi Souza, Suelen
Drussyla of course will prepare for U23, while Macris, Adenizia did not participate in the friendly tournament against US.
