Koga... girl needs to get it together. 5-5-31? Not only hitting 0 but also 16% KP on 31 attempts? It would've been embarrassing if we lost to that. I'm shocked she didn't get yanked. Inoue and Hayashi barely got a chance. but Koga is japans Larson right??!

Inoue and Hayashi barely got a chance. Now that I think about, has Koga ever gotten benched before? Love me some Wada bomb serves, but I thought it was interesting that they gave her the start when she's usually a sub. She definitely has been benched before. Against Poland, she was pulled and Wada played the non-passing OH in her place with Hiyashi and Ishikawa. Today, I think they wisely kept her in because her passing was sickening. And her serving was solid too.

I watched this match many hours delayed, but I absolutely love this announcer. He makes volleyball sound as exciting as a tight Formula One race - his voice cracks into high pitch with excitement, he uses great British terms for brilliant plays, and thoroughly understands the game. He is so fun. Can he do the Olympic broadcasts? he's also a liar, which i guess if someone is a casual viewer of the sport, they wouldn’t know he lies. but he does what does this mean?

Yeah, I don't quite get what was meant by him being liar as well. I mean he has made wrong calls (i.e. call a ball in when it was out), mispronounced player names and so forth. But all annoucers commit those mistakes. So long as they don't it all the time, that's ok. I am curious how he got the job as an annoucer. Volleyball isn't exactly known as a popular sport in the UK. I mean yes, there are Brits who do play volleyball, but its not a sport that ranks all that high in participation compared to the FAR more popular team sports like soccer (sorry, FOOTBALL), rugby or cricket in the UK. So its not like there are a lot of knowledgeable volleyball folks on the British Isles.

Man, the backrow trio of jwo, larson, and carlini is elite. I feel like just Carlini's defense alone is enough to justify a start for her. So many balls that she read perfectly, or stuck a hand / platform out and somehow got it to fall on jwo's head. That, paired with Annie and Skinner who weren't afraid to swing hard at high balls, meant we were converting well off of digs. Skinner's passing was *chef's kiss* tonight. Anna Hall works so freaking hard and is so athletic.
This squad just looked really, really good. Carlini's doing a great job. Cautiously optimistic for finals and olympics.

Hall really does work hard, but all that work doesn’t mean she gets good swings (she was scoring, but her technique is not great).

Inoue and Hayashi barely got a chance. Hayashi was the starter but not doing well so she was replaced by Wada. I agree Koga should've been benched, but actually putting Inoue without Hayashi in the court will be so bad for their floor defense and will put a lot of pressure for Mayu. Inoue is always hidden in reception even in her club teams in Japan, so when she starts with Koga, they always have Hayashi to receive for her. Wada is generally a non receiving OPP They could've switched Hayashi back to OH though, as a last resort
