Based on 2018 WTF in Hamburg, the host nation gets top seed in Pool A (it’s round Robin anyways), then pools will be: Pool A: Nicolai/Lupo, Cribb, Czech, Varenhorst/Van de Velde, Carumbula/Rossi Pool B: Qatar, Norway, Brouwer/Meeuwsen, Semonov/Leshukov, Plavins/Tocs
Pool B will be the harder pool.

Just watched Quatar vs Russia. Semenov was so pissed that he basically quit playing. He even served underhand. I don't think I've ever seen someone act like that on the world tour. It was pretty disrespectful to Quatar.

The guy has been a twat for years, love to see him lose.

It was pretty disrespectful to Quatar. THIS I've got to see.. but with my luck today, the replay on Youtube will be blocked in the USA due to music copyright infringement.

Cribb vs. Czech was painful to watch. Imo Czechs did a very good job sitting on everything deep that Jake likes to do and basically said “hit this down angle ball around the block to score.”
As a whole, the Czechs are one of my favorite teams to watch, both play a relatively unique style of sideout volleyball combined with perusic being one of the best defenders in the backcourt.

Gibb and Crabb lost to Varenhorst (Ned), I doble hate this. That NED team is the only one I really root agaist. First set was close, the second was a clear NED win. I cloud only glimpse here and there to the second set while I was cooking, but I saw some far too easy serves and some split blocking by the Netherlands. Varenhorst playing def doesn't look good at all.

Earlier today, Brouwer/Meeuwsen won against Norway in tiebreak, with a margin of 2 points for all three sets played.
