Japan has to be tired of playing us...(if that projection is correct). not even that we get matched up that often I feel like Japan just struggles against us. They only beat Kenya at their home Olympics. That ain't a good look for a nation named Japan. DR was a mess with their best player in questionable health and Korea had their drama with the twins living and dying on KYK / a barely recovered Kim Heejin. And they couldn't beat either. |

in the mens. they only seeded 1-6. (Russia was ranked in the top 6) In this case (with two hosts) it'd be 1-4. Sooooo Pool A NED Pool B USA Pool C BRA Pool D CHN Pool E TUR Pool F POL Pot 1 SRB-ITA-DOM-RUS-JPN-GER Pot 2 BEL-KOR-BUL-COL-PUR-CAN Pot 3 THA-CAM-ARG-CZE-KAZ-KEN That could be very interesting. everyone hoping to get japan lol maybe... Pot 3 shouldn't pose a thread to anyone... Although I like Argentina Belgium/Korea/Bulgaria won't have their best players available. |

What’s the pot. I don’t understand that Pots are just groups of teams according to their ranking. Each pool gets 1 team from each pot. |

if the women's WCH follows the men's format
It's ideal for the USA to have serbia/italy/russia be drawn into Pool C, E or F.
Pool A and Pool B have the biggest advantages. They get 2 second place and a third place in the second group stage...
C-F all get 1 first place, 1 second and 1 third.

I don't understand why they have to change the format all the time.

I don't understand why they have to change the format all the time. because someone new thinks they can always do it better. |

Santarelli wants to be Poland's coach.
That's a massive W for Poland... Wolosz will be back... now if only they can sort their OHs....
"It was time for changes. I spoke to the Federation a few days ago and explained that I have been able to work very well, with fantastic people, but that this is the right time to take a step forward. I want to lead a national team in an important event, my dream is the Olympics. Poland may not have shown its potential yet, but it can become one of the best teams in the world: if I didn't believe it, I wouldn't have sent my CV… “.
“I don't know if I will have a chance, there are very good candidates. But now is the time to change my professional life, and I wish it was in Poland. I want to give girls my energy and knowledge to take it to the next level, I am convinced they can do it. Working alone in my club is too little for me… when the season ends I still want to work, I'm full of energy. I want to make my dreams come true, and the most important are the Games “.

Supposedly Ferhat and Barbolini are in contention Poland (well we know they're not the smartest) would be so dumb to not pick Santarelli... if not just to bring back Wolosz. |

I can only hope they're smart enough to know their Wolosz window is closing... and this may be the last shot |

Does anyone know when the draw for the final groupings will be made for WWC 2022? They did the final draw for the Men's WC two months ago.
