Women's Volleyball FIVB Nations League 2019


Recommended Posts

So this starts tomorrow. We are going to participate for the first time, and by my account, about damn time we started playing with the big teams. Goal is to not get relegated, but if we get a couple of wins it would be a success.

Netherlands - Brazil in the same week in the same venue as last year, too bad my girlfriend arrives a week later this time...not much fun going to :NED - :BRA without someone cheering for the opposing team :p

:NED - :BRA, let's go :d 

 

Always a bit of a special match for me in any sport, let's see if the Dutch team can take their second win in 32 matches against Brazil :lol:

this league doesn't make sense at all. Almost all teams with B teams. For example only 3 players from last year team (Serbia) are right now in Italy. :facepalm: But it is expected, this year is very important.

Also the Dutch team is competing with a very young and inexperienced team, although some of the top players (like Celeste Plak) are on the roster. I don't think she specifically is in the team this week though, haven't seen her yet.

 

Netherlands going from 19-14 to 19-20 in the third set (at 1-1) :facepalm:

    • Right, ready for  Brazil's first ever Paralympic Winter Games gold medal today   And with watching live actually being possible, vamos.
    • Great Britain only has a few medal chances to begin with, you can't genuinely expect all of your medal chances to convert, or even one unless they're a heavy favourite. 
    • A question about relay  qualification to LA 2028:    either you are among top 12 at the WCH, then you get 2 additional spots, or you have 4 swimmers there anyway and they can compete as relay, is that right?    now following scenario:  lets say an NOĆ has only one swimmer with A standard , let’s say 100m freestyle, and no other  swimmer qualified in any other discipline, but they are 12th in 4x100 freestyle at the WCH.  they would get two additional quota, but would have to decline them as they can’t compose a relay with 3 swimmers? Is this correct? 
    • March 9th Results - Americas   Pool A:    Colombia 4-3  Panama   Highlights:      Cuba 1-4  Puerto Rico   Highlights:     Pool A Standings:     Team W L PCT Puerto Rico* 3 0 1.000 Cuba 2 1 .667 Canada 1 1 .500 Colombia 1 3 .250 Panama 1 3 .250   Pool B:    Brazil 1-8  Great Britain   Highlights:      Mexico 3-5  United States   Highlights:     Pool B Standings:     Team W L PCT USA 3 0 1.000 Italy 2 0 1.000 Mexico 2 1 .667 Great Britain 1 3 .250 Brazil 0 4 .000   Pool D:    Dominican Republic 10-1  Israel   Highlights:      Venezuela 4-0  Nicaragua   Highlights:   Pool D Standings:     Team W L PCT Venezuela* 3 0 1.000 Dominican Rep.* 3 0 1.000 Israel 1 2 .333 Netherlands 1 2 .333 Nicaragua 0 4 .000  
    • If anyone is interested, here is a link to a GeoGuessr Challenge.   It's in single player. There are 5 rounds total, and you have to pinpoint on a map as close as you can to the actual location that you spawned at. For this particular challenge, you have a time limit of 10 minutes per round and you can move as much as you want.   Since this is Totallympics, thought this particular map would be an appropriate theme. There is a flag at the start of each location that's supposed to help you identify where you are.   You can do this challenge at any time (no need to coordinate times with other users) and you only need a regular account, not a premium account.
    • Iran : any country closes/kick the US embassy will get a free pass in Hormuz strait     
    • March 9th Results - Asia   Pool C:    South Korea 7-2  Australia   Highlights:     Pool C Standings:     Team W L PCT Japan* 3 0 1.000 South Korea* 2 2 .500 Australia 2 2 .500 Taiwan 2 2 .500 Czech Republic 0 3 .000 *Japan and South Korea advance to the quarterfinals
    • Puerto Rico beats  Cuba 4-1 and advances to the quarterfinals.   The Canada vs. Cuba matchup on Wednesday will decide who will be the 2nd team to advance from Pool A.
    • I mean you don't need 2 weeks for a 12 team tournament. The 20-team WBC is already 13 days and they are stretching the final stages. You can probably get away doing it in 9-10 days, including rain contingency.
    • The 6 teams is very disappointing, but I think there would be no chance the MLB would allow players is the competition took the entire length of the Olympics. Giving players one week off is manageable, two weeks is near impossible from the MLB perspective.   IOC probably had to decide between having 8-12 teams w/o MLB players or 6 teams with possibly having MLB players.
