Here's one of my favorite plays in the tourney so far, watch this brilliant kill by Thailand's libero Pannoy:

That's the classic "old-man" play in beach. Misty May did this about once/match in the last Olys. Pretty impressive she was able to pull it off in 6s.
That Thai team is very fun to watch. Here are a couple more plays: - Another dig kill at 1:28:20, only this is off a head! - At 1:27:15 -- where the outside hitter for Thailand is trap-set and she takes the ball and pushes it into and through the blockers for a kill. To me, that should be a carry.

It's not a throw because she jousted with the blocker but her net violation should've been called. I wonder why the video challenge system hasn't been put in like in the men's.

I agree that it is often let go, but her attack takes the ball from about a foot away from the block and keeps it on her hand all the way into the block -- with the purpose of pushing it through the hands. That's a prolonged contact with the hand. If a juniors player did that, it would be called because that's how they call it. Men's VB probably would let it go.

I am sitting here and I am watching the replay of today's match. If USA makes it to the final or not. Karch is going to stay with Courtney and Alisha as the setters. Something tells me that he is sold on both for the road to Rio. Unless, injuries happen which I hope not, but I love to see other setters like Carly or Molly play with the "A team". Oh well I can only hope.

Did you see those two slow-mo replays of Glass and Thompson doubling off easy passes today? Such sloppy and uncoordinated technique even at NCAA D1 level, cringe seeing it on the NT.

The Dutch just blew a stunning set one lead to Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico won 12 of the final 14 points to take the opening set.

Lise Van Hecke is essentially a one woman show for the Belgians. She has 34 of 52 spikes through 4 sets...5 set is coming up.
This formula is idiotic as the winner of this group advances to the finals, while the Bulgarians, Czechs, and the bottom 7 in Group 1 all stay home. The Belgians or Dutch could be in the finals while the USA, Russia, and Germany could be going home.

I'm cool with this formula, USA don't deserve to go to finals right now.
