A thrilling pre-season match welcomed some of Australia’s elite netballers back onto the main stage. West Coast Fever hosted the WA All-Stars mixed team on Wednesday night as a means to assess their game before the Suncorp Super Netball (SSN) season commences next month. With thousands of fans at the RAC Arena, strong cheering and a close game boosted morale for all; especially those barracking for the All-Stars, who trumped Fever by one goal, 59-60. With some key defenders out for Fever with minor-injuries, plus the debut of the two-point shot and rolling-subs; extra considerations were upon the coaching staff going into the clash.

Where did the female shooter come from? Wallan, is it?

The WA State League. She was the league MVP last year.

Wow that would have been great to watch. Wallan looks fantastic.

She’s only played proper netball for a couple of years apparently and has come from a basketball background. She had no fear of doing layups all over Bruce even! And her falling-out-of-court shooting was amazing. Wish we could have seen her in the ANL this year.

Is she a talent of the future or is she a bit older?

Would love to see Firebirds pick her up as a Beuta replacement. Does she play any GA? Its probably not an viable option with the current situation though.

Fever just signed her as a training partner. And Marinkovich said yesterday she was looking into taking all her training partners to the hub in case of injury in a condensed playing format. Woohoo!!!
