Speaking of Amanda... wtf is up with her serve technique?? I remember noticing it a couple years ago and now it’s even more dramatic it seems.. I know everyone has their little thing, but the way she...squat walks? is just so bizarre to watch. I just thought she does that routine to make sure the ball is bouncy enough. lol I wonder who taught her that technique? Unless it's something she came up with it on her own and no coach decided to correct her. It's definitely weird, but I guess it works in her mind. That serve prep gives me anxiety. Simon and Nicole who were commenting during the the 2019 VNL final were joking about it but said she had yet to have a service error during the entire final rounds (just four matches). If it works, it works 🤷🏻♂️

Megan Easy still looks pretty good considering the road she's traveled that past few years. Still can't pass but damn.. she can sure hit the ball.
Cuttino looks better than last year but still way too far away from the people ahead of her. '
and agree with whomever said Fe Garay should go to Tokyo. She looks really good right now.

Are we sure Leia is not going to suit up for the NT this season? She said back in 2019 that it was her last season for the NT. Which Libero for Brazil is the next in line? Brait? Suellen?

I think the door is still open if she wanted to come back, but seems like Brait will be their libero. Suellen wasn't invited.

S: Dani Lins, Roberta
OPP: Tandara, Lorenne, Rosamaria
MB: Adenízia, Bia, Mayany
OH: Ana Cristina
L: Camila Brait, Nyeme
+ players from Minas&Praira will announced later. Ze confirmed Gattaz will be one of them.
Probably Macris(S), Thaisa-Gattaz-Carol(MB) and Garay-Pri Daroit(OH).
Natalia's season in Russia is finished, silver medal. Gabi will stay with Vakif till May 1st.
Total roster might be 17 players. Ze likes to play VNL/WGP with core team before Olympics.
Brait was the last cut in London&Rio. This time, it seems she is the fav one but other libero, who is very young, is really good. I wouldn't shock if Brait watches another Olympics at home.

I'm surprised Mara didn't make the cut but with Gattaz getting the call, that would have been her spot. I thought there would be more OH's listed. Ze is gonna make the same 4-5 OH's play the entire VNL it seems. I think Karch will do the same with the USA's big 4 OH's.

Tandara played OH for long time before, Rosamaria too. Ana Christina used to play OPP. Ze can try many options.
*If I don't remember wrong, Tandara was OH in Olympic Qualifiers 2019 while Natalia was injured.

I think the door is still open if she wanted to come back, but seems like Brait will be their libero. Suellen wasn't invited. Leia was done with the NT, but came back to help in 2019 after Ze Roberto begged her. Camila Brait was Fabi's natural sucessor and barring any injuries, Brait is going to be the libero in Tokyo for the NT. After the cuts in 2012 and 2016, she said she was done with the NT. Ze Roberto convinced her to come back. I would be surprised if he would cut her again after that. Suellen can still be invited. She is playing the Superliga final with Praia.

We don't know, but they will release another list this week with the last players in the wide roster. If Sheilla is invited and makes to Tokyo, Rosamaria may be moved to OH.
