Is Lowe still in the running? She has been better in all scoring skills than Drews, based on the cumulative stats from WGP 2016 to COQT 2020. Her floor defense sucks though.
SPIKING (points-errors/total attempts) 34.4% Lowe (327-86/700) 30.1% Drews (467-157/1031) 29.2% Thompson (138-42/329)
BLOCKING (points-errors/total attempts) -15.8% Lowe (31-61/190) -17.6% Thompson (14-30/91) -21.6% Drews (53-128/347)
SERVING (points-errors/total attempts) -4.7% Thompson (8-13/106) -8.4% Lowe (14-32/215) -12.1% Drews (29-72/356)
DIGGING (1-errors/total attempts) 89.3% Thompson (1-11/103) 81.1% Drews (1-61/322) 71.6% Lowe (1-60/211)

Well Drews was meh 2017-2018 so... Again...Lloyd was a big part of that. She definitely "arrived" in 2019...but against a very low level of competition. I think Thompson could be the starting OPP by the Olympics. Unless she fully unseats one of the big 4 OH's after this years pro season. If that occurs I see her still being on the bench ready to come on for whatever pin is struggling in offense.

Veljkovic is pregnant and expected due date is in February. I guess Aleksic will get more playing time in order to be prepared if Veljkovic is not ready.

Veljkovic is good, but I don't think this hurts Serbia too much. She brings great value on offense but that's not exactly a weak point. They already have a great M2 and their other options are better blockers and on the slide. Though I do like when they go Veljkovic/Rasic and play like a men's team.

Yeah, but I was thinking more so IF they needed another middle to replace Veljkovic if she doesn't return though I'm pretty sure she will. Rasic, Veljkovic, M. Popovic is a versatile/interchangeable middle trio.

China's Roster: S: Ding Xia, Yao Di OH: Zhu Ting, Zhang Changning, Li Yingying, Liu Xiaotong Opp: Gong Xiangyu, ? MB: Yuan Xingue, Yan Ni, ? L: ?Starters in Bold. Edit 4/25. The libero, 3rd middle and 2nd opposite are still in question to me. Libero: Wang Mengjie or Lin Li? Middle: Wang Yuanyuan, Hu Mingyuan, Yang Hanyu or Zheng Yixin? Opposite: Zeng Chunlei or Liu Yunhan? More than a year ago, and how things have changed! Starters/best lineup listed first. OH: Zhu Ting (ok some things don't change), Li Yingying, Zhang Changning, ? MB: Yan Ni, Yuan Xinyue, ? S: Ding Xia, Yao Di OPP: Gong Xiangyu, ? L: Wang Mengjie In my (totally nonprofessional) opinion, Wang Yuanyuan for 3rd middle, Yang Hanyu for 4th middle, and Liu Yanhan for 4th outside/opposite backup.

This thread should come alive as the VNL winds down. We might even know official rosters released during the end of the VNL.

Hoping Lazovic is getting a lot of looks by Terzic. She is such a smart hitter and is only 20. She’d be great for Serbia because they would actually get some offense out of their second OH. Kocic also making a case for herself to maybe be a 3rd middle with the unknown status of Serbia’s other middles besides Rasic

Kocic also making a case for herself to maybe be a 3rd middle with the unknown status of Serbia’s other middles besides Rasic Rasić, M. Popović and Aleksić will probably be the three middles in Tokyo (if Veljković isn't back in form). Kocić will get her time in the spotlight, especially if Serbia keeps up the boycott of their best players in the VNL. Lazović should make the Olympic roster along with Mihajlović, Buša and Milenković.

I honestly think Ze should bring Tanada, Lorenne and Rosamaria (who is a versatile pin like Tandara) all as Opposites. I think Sheilla is on the outside looking in at this point. For the middles I would bring Gattaz, Carol and Mayany. Ade didn't look good vs. USA. Perhaps she needs more time to settle. Bia looked gassed AF. For setters I think Macris is Ze's choice for starter. I honestly think Roberta should be the back-up. I still need to see Dani Lins start a match but I don't think Ze is going to do that. Ze likes to keep the setter and libero starting every match. Thats a lot of volleyball for Macris and Brait. That is why we see the double sub each match from Brazil.

I’d really like to see Dani Lins though, Macris seems to be struggling a bit.

I don’t think I’ve seen her have a great match outside of Superliga
