So far, Brazil is doing okay. Weak middles aside from Juciely, Adenizia is meh pero andiyan na. Dami nilang middles sa lineup, 3 1/2. Barbara is a middle/opp hybrid
Galing ni Carol magblock di siya agad jump like Barbara pero problema nila is attacks. Toco Queen si Carol pero binench yung Barbara for her dahil di makaattack di rin makablock.
Weak link yung Monique, in fer sanay na sila kay Joyce kaya mas madali siguro iblock na opp sub si Monique.
Beast mode si Garay. Madami din siyang beses na umatake sa right side. Still di pa perfect ang mga pipe attacks niya.Not sure pero parang tumaba ata siya tapos tumanders rin siya. Kita sa skin.
Weaker lineup for Brazil overall compared last year. No Sheilla, Jacque, Thaisa and Fabiana.
Sa Japan naman nakaisa sila sa Brazil, sobrang waley gelling at di mablock ng brazil si Yamaguchi at di mahabol ang mga open spikers. Nagaoka is disappointing me. High leaper and lefty pero walang hangtime kaya madaling mablock. Sakoda is injured so di mapalitan.

Nakakaloka yung #25 ng USA. Lefty opposite, 6'4" with fast arm swing. Mukhang bye bye na ito for Murphy. Mahirap na naman magsurvive sa isang team with two lefty opposites. You need atleast a right handed opp to change things up.

Kailangan lang ni Lowe nang more exposure, mas bet ko din sya kay Murphy. Imagine sa nasa frontline silang 3 nila Kim Hill, Akirandewo at Lowe 6'4, 6'3, 6'4 ang height respectively! Wow! Blocking Galore ang Peg!!

Preliminary round pa lang naman. Sa mga crucial rounds na ilalabas lahat ng magagaling na players sa team. Im still betting on Brazil though mahihirapan silang i defend ang title ngayong season knowing na lahat halos ng team sa group 1 eh magagaling at nag improve na. Looking forward for upsets and exciting matches ahead.

yeah, we'll see a lot of mix and matching of the a-, b- and even c-teams this early (from what i understand the pan-american cup will be running some time soon and will coincide with some grand prix games). napanood ko 'yung turkey-usa game kagabi sa balls (three world league games tapos isang grand prix game; o ha?). usa's reception was very mind-boggling, even for the libero barnwarth. ang taas ng pasa at ang layo sa net. turkish services pounded on megan hodge the whole time, but she was at least able to pass close to where the setter was standing. still not that ideal considering the preferred offensive style of the americans. the starting setter's form was also odd--her arms are stretched too high up and for me it made things a bit more predictable. mala-rhea dimac. hehe
yeah, i think murphy's got a bit of a challenge too from the other opposites. i think that's good for development. i wasn't totally convinced that her performance last year was worthy of an mvp award, but yeah, i want to see how they've all developed. (para lang si taylor sander na second stringer bigla ngayong taon, pero mvp last year sa world league.)

Actually, nainjure si Sander ngayong world league, kaya may mga games sa midportion ng intercontinental round eh di siya naglaro. USA put Anderson back to the Wing hitter during this time kaya ang nagfill ng gap nung ay si Troy, yung maputi na parang napakasensitive ng skin sa araw. Hahaha!!! |

Ang mahigpit na kalaban ng USA sa World Cup is China, Russia , and Japan No Team Italy na defending champ last world cup!! Parang wala ngang competition haha. It is USA's world cup to lose. Great to see Lucia Bosetti back sa national team ng italy though tagal din. Di ako magtataka if Japan goes 6-2 libero-less starters experiment lang like hybrid 6. haha. Sa WGP naman, Brazil is still a strong team without the usual suspects pero they are always struggling sa first sets ng mga matches nila. |

Alam mo naman ang USA may history ng pagiging choker like London 2012 and 2011 World Cup! Isang panalo na lang gold na sana nung 2011 kaso na 3 sets ng Japan sa last game kaloka!!!

Rout lang nangyari sa russia c/o brazil.
Nagbago ata ng arm swing si Gabi. Parang mala-Paula Pequeno na roundhouse na siya.
Sana makapasok Japan sa final 6 kaso ang lalakas ng teams naka pool nila. Germany has the best chance considering na hina ng pool nila.
