The Firebirds are a bit like the Vixens and the Swifts, in that players seem to be very loyal and they don’t come and go so easily. I would be very surprised to see Dwan leave. Personally I think Bueta/Dwan is a future Diamonds circle and I expect that next year they’ll start transitioning into that more. Aiken can’t play forever. Players like Dwyer and Dwan may be better off moving to Vixens but I don’t think they will.
I used to be quite critical of Sinclair but she’s really been excellent the last few weeks. Nelson/Sinclair/Browne/Jovic could be one of the strongest attacking ends in the league next year if they work on their consistency. I wouldn’t be surprised if Nelson ends up as the best GS in the world in a few years, her and Nweke are well above the others in their age group.
How bloody great do the bibs look in the #SSNFirebirdsMagpies game!! 🏳️🌈

I love the bibs! They add so much colour to ugly referee looking uniforms magpies have. Please keep them.
I’m really enjoying the under dogs stepping up. Getting some crucial wins that are changing the order of the top 4. The business end is looking very interesting indeed. My favorite part of the season of both comps!
The three remaining matches of Round 13 will go ahead as planned, but strict coronavirus protocols have been introduced, meaning no crowds will be in attendance.

That’s good news for the players. It was really getting to the stage where a call as to ending the season on the current results needed to be made.
NZChampion – your comments on the Magpies uniform made me laugh. I keep looking at Geva as with those calf support sleeves she wears it reminds me of the image of a naughty school girl at a party costume.
Enough said! :)I can’t quite work out what’s happening. Are Thunderbirds and Vixens still playing tonight – Monday??
Yes Amandalouise. One game tonight and two tomorrow. See the schedule Ian posted on page 1 of this thread. The remaining 3 games of Round 13 are going ahead.
Haha Maryann!
It says Vixens and Thunderbird will be on tomorrow on my sky schedule?
The games are all still going on as per the schedule I posted on page 1.
Oops you’re right. 9:30pm our time. 😂
Competitive start here. Tbirds with the edge. 11-8 as Vixens call a timeout.
1/4 time: Tbirds 15-13
Potgieter 12/12, Horjus 3/3
Kumwenda 9/10, Stanton 3/4Penalties: Tbirds 19-16
Turnovers: 6-6Good game. Tbirds just with the advantage, but Vixens well in it.
Tbirds defence now coming up with ball. Pressure on the Vixens with the ball. Mannix v Potgieter is a good battle. Tbirds 21-17
