Interesting article, confirms a couple of things that people had speculated about

Wonder how Allison and Cholhok would be feeling when reading this article.

It does sound like it was a bit of their relationship with Bulley that was the issue, but it doesn’t paint others at Netball Queensland in a good light either.

The whole team looked a LOT happier when Bulley was gone.

That sounds like an awful environment. It makes you wonder how embedded the issues are when you think of it in context of the grievances raised by Beryl Friday, the debacle around Mi Mi and First Nations round and the way they went about things with RAG.

Let’s hope a new coach and 2 new internationals can somehow change the culture.

I hope the other players are happy and kamo and wallam were the ones who weren’t. Hopefully they can build from here with Mary and Imogen. Mary’s a strong team leader so I’m hopeful.

I wonder if it was just cultural differences? Seeing as the two main players affected was aboriginal and maori?

Tbh from watching how Bulley interacted with the players during the timeouts, I found her horribly too nice 😂 It legit frustrated me. I didn’t find her talks inspiring at all. I wonder if she’s one of those coaches that only suites being in a specialist role or assistant?

If that’s how the Firebirds deal with cultural differences it is a terrible indictment on their organisation.

Tbh I had the impression that grievances were more widespread that just Wallam and Kamo.

That also doesn’t account for Sara Francis Bayman.

It can still be a cultural difference for SFB too.

That is true.
