Mystics giving Pulse a run for their money. Nweke dominating Jury. Ekenasio standing up for the Pulse.

I reckon 1 and 2 are decided already. Mystics and Pulse clearly the strongest 2 teams. Its disappointing that there is no semi finals because I think these two will have a grand final spot cemented weeks out from the Grand Final.

Take a look at C’Bass’ instagram story. Pretty funny and spot on.

If it was any other year the players might have gone on strike. But given they’re absolutely hanging out for a game of netball I can’t see that happening…but we can dream

What I hate the most is that it entirely devalues good feeders who can thread the needle and good defenders who can keep their shooters away from the post.

Firebirds will be worst off I reckon. Aiken and Tippett never shoot long.

None of those other WA’s would have put in the same performance that Crampton produced in the Gold Medal match at World Cup. Played her role perfectly. TS, Crampton had the better of Elley easily. It was the Tactix circle defence that were on top. Bit hard to shine as a feeder when both your shooters are always covered.

How strong is the WA (and whole midcourt) depth in NZ at the moment! Crampton, Toeava, Souness, Reuleu-Buchanan and now Maddy Gordon all stepping up – and Erikana Pederson made a solid return yesterday too. Crampton for me is still the standout, she’s the most consistent and has such a low error rate which fits the Ferns style. She puts some outstanding passes into O’Connell when there really isn’t much available a lot of the time.

Toeava is incredibly clever but I think her error rate is still too high. She committed 14 turnovers over the first 2 rounds, compared to Crampton’s 2 which is 10-12 goals right there.

Nweke does a hell of a lot more than just stand under the post thats for sure

McCollin has got a lovely shot on her

in reply to: Revised ANZ Premiership draw… #1288858

I thought NZ announced today that spectators were able to attend all sporting matches? Obviously the Mystics & Stars will have an advantage, but I’m pretty sure the players would rather play in front of a crowd (even if they’re cheering against them).

What a shame. Mes was looking good for a big year, as are the Mystics! All 3 shooters under 18 years of age is a rare sight in any professional netball team. I’d have thought they would have tried to chase Ellen Halpenny, I know she played for them during pre-season and her experience would be a great fit – but I’d imagine she would be pretty busy in her new job as a police officer! Mystics should still be a strong team this year.

Plus Beth Cobden’s a T’Birds training partner and she’s gone home too.
