The field is wide open for another brazilian silver medal brazil has to go get through china first 🥲 For sure. I would put China as favorites, by the way. I just wanted to make the joke 😅

Bye Gizem i didnt watch every Poland game but i felt like Wenerska was holding them back against us. Also she hasnt been too consistent and Santa has been rotating a lot but when Cansu came on late v Brasil it felt like the angels were singing on her sets. Im a homer i know.

I think Poland overperformed and Turkey did not. I think Bosio deserves a shoutout. nwakalor had the same hitting stats as Stysiak

sigh...i wish croatia was at 100% strength for this VNL. idk if cvetnic and sain have retired from the NT but having them would've been nice with a bunch of other players out with injury. I think there's a good chance we see them win their way back through the Challenge cup if everyone is healthy. The other teams with a good shot of making VNL 2024 are a healthy Colombia and Sweden imo.
Thailand underperformed by a LOT and im so disappointed. obviously some key players like Pornpun were dealing with injuries, but they just looked exhausted. ball control was an absolute MESS. I know Thailand's senior team is supposed to be a part of 7 different NT events this summer, but im hoping that the A-team just plays OQTs and Asian Champs.

Looks like they’ll be releasing codes for money off tickets for the finals if anyone is buying tickets last minute

Its kinda wild that Canada was just a couple of tie breaks away from being top 8 at both this VNL and last year's WCH

Bye Gizem Um shoutout to Kästner. I thought she did a hell of a job for Germany, especially considering who her coach is.
