Petty locked in for two more… ??♀️
If we lose Williams now I am seriously over it.I wouldn’t be surprised if Williams is off to Lightning. Byrne is the 21U coach and they need another Midcourter. They might target more of a defensive midcourter but Byrne seems to like Cassidy and Shimmin in WD.

Supporting NSA is getting harder and harder. Like how blind can you be. We’re going to lose one of the most or promising young midcourters coming through the pathway. Absolute idiots.
Unless they choose to use Horjus as the third shooter with just Dwan/Potgieter, there isn’t room for Williams :(
The awards Shadine received at the awards night today absolutely show why she was so great for the culture at Thunderbirds. Will be missed
To play SSN you have to be a good player, that goes without saying, but I reckon there’s some midcourters out there who would be thinking to themselves if McDonald and Petty can do it then so can I.
Devastated for Ash Unie that she wasn’t offered a contract. Spending 4 years as a training partner to finally getting a chance only to do her acl in the preseason. Hopefully she might be named as Tara’s injury replacement
Absolutely gutted when she got injured. She was sooo close to leaving the sport from what I remember (she set a timeline to give it her all before moving on).
Moore to Giants…
Who is left for the firebirds to sign as defenders??Interesting to see Moore go to Giants. I’m not sure if she’ll actually get that much more court time, but she will probably get to play more in the circle which might be a priority for her. WD is clearly not her preferred position. Giants have a lot of exciting players in that defensive end but they’re a bit short and quite inconsistent, so it will be interesting to see how they perform. Hopefully Sligar or Miller gets the last contract.
Firebirds defensive end looking very empty. Nearly no Australian options left for them, so it will either be Imports or new players. It’s a shame that players like Newtown and Shimmin will probably spend large amounts of time on the bench when there seems to be an open GK spot.
Have Giants signed their third shooter yet?
It’ll be interesting to see how Moore goes- Tilly McDonell hasn’t gotten much court time and in my opinion doesn’t make a huge difference when she is on court. I wouldn’t be surprised if Moore gets more of a starting position over McDonnell as she’s a bit more experienced.
Yeah I agree probably Moore would get the start, as for the last shooting spot you would imagine Letherbarrow would get that, (unless Bassett going back)?
This will be Lightning’s next signing…
Queensland Firebirds thank Reilley Batcheldor for her contribution to the club as a training partner in 2021.
She has informed the club she has accepted a contract to further her career elsewhere.
As a promising young player with a bright future we wish her all the best ?. pic.twitter.com/RhJbqEHPbH
