i scrolled quite far down, didn't see one nasty comment. a lot of them were reported/deleted early on...but one i distinctly remember b/c it was in english was saying 'congrats for finally getting internet in your favela' with the confetti emoji towards a brazilian fan mocking team turkiye Brazilian and turkish fans getting at each other is the most irrational thing i've ever seen. They are two countries that love volleyball. A lot of Brazilian players get a lot of love in Turkiye. I feel like most of the people who are fighting are just internet trolls. I've seen also a lot of Turks and Brazilians are showing support to each other on the internet. |

I think to say that the competition for OH is still very wide open based upon this match performance. only cook and larson are locked. Maybe frantti. That 4th spot is still open I'm not sure that Cook is a lock. There are others outperforming her already. |

Cook could easily fill the libero spot if JWO got hurt. OH: KRook, Larson, Skinner, Lanier, Frantti MB: Ogbogu, Washington, Butler, Hall O: Thompson, Drews S: Carlini, Hancock L: JWO |

OH: KRook, Larson, Skinner, Lanier, Frantti MB: Ogbogu, Washington, Butler, Hall O: Thompson, Drews S: Carlini, Hancock L: JWO I think this is the correct roster right now, maybe with some wiggle room at MB. If we're at the Olympic cap (12), then I'd say drop Lanier and probably one of the non-Chi middles. How sad it is that we have no better options than Drews after her [what I deem to be] very middling performance week 1. |

Bajema, Plummer, hell even RJP could prove superior. but for now, I’d rather have Frantti. she’s really good when she’s healthy and not having to take every swing for the team (looking at you Casalmaggiore) |

I still say let's see how Plummer/Bajema perform. Both of these outsides played in the hardest league. I think Plummer has improved so much on passing(she was served every ball when she's on the court). The issue I have with her is not trying to go off high hands. She's 6'6 and should be able to tool everyone.
