As noted in another thread (and to the surprise of probably no one) Ana Patricia and Rebecca have split. So what teams do you think we might have forming in the future? (especially considering the overall Olympic performances from Tokyo)

Agatha/Duda are signed up for World Tour Finals. I imagine AP/Rebecca could have played had they stuck together a couple more months.

Brazil’s partner philosophy looks to be if it doesn’t work, keep switching until it works!
I wonder how the men’s teams will look.

Does the Brazilian tour season start soon? Just wondering when we’ll be seeing some new partnerships.

The men all seem like they are in suboptimal partnerships but, unlike the women, there isnt one super-logical switch out there. Evandro is the best player by a mile, but who should he be playing with? Id personally like an Andre reunion but whether they are willing or Andre is still at the level he was formerly? Guto would be a great point scoring team, but has a pretty firm ceiling. Can't wait to see this play out.

I told you guys weeks ago Bruno was done, not just splitting. He is just fulfilling some sponsorship opportunities. Alison and Alvaro will not be splitting (at least for now). Andre will still be with George and Guto will make his way alongside Evandro.

Andre will still be with George and Guto will make his way alongside Evandro. A player at Guto's level, i.e. someone usually in CQs and qualifiers, getting a partner at Evandro's level hasn't happened in a while, maybe since Phil picked up Nick? Can anyone else remember instances. Evandro is taking on a ton of work in that partnership

I am shocked by the Evandro and Guto pairing also, but in the tournament they played together where they got second, Evandro for once seemed to be enjoying himself and having fun out there. Maybe it was because there was no pressure and it was last minute but who knows maybe the chemistry is better.
I also would love to see an Andre and Evandro reunion. They were pretty awesome and fun to watch.

Can't believe Brazil doesn't have someone who can be better than Bruno was this past season.
IDK what happened to Andre, I thought he was going to be the best out of that bunch.

I'm hearing it differently. I was told it's going to be Evandro and Alvaro. Not sure about Alison's plans. Also heard from more than one person that Bruno will play with Saymon, maybe just for a short time for sponsorship duties and all. Not sure about the women, but Duda/Ana makes too much sense for it not to happen. Rebecca could pick up Agatha, if she continues playing, or maybe Talita. Brazilian Tour stars on September 21, so we should know soon, at least for the men. Agatha and Duda will still play the World Tour Finals, so I don't expect anything from them until there. By the way, the Brazilian Federation has also announced a World Tour event in Itapema for mid-November.

I know she probably isnt interested, but any idea if anyone has tried to lure Larissa back to the FIVB over the last few years?

I didn’t understand Maria Antonellis post on Instagram of her and Talita splitting. Who will they be playing with instead
