Watched the other semi - the difference between our attack and Aus attack is night and day. Aus move early and often and are always creating space - they work together well so they are moving to space. We move late, not enough and not in a way that compliments the movement the other players are doing on the court.
Stodgy mate. Sure sign is the number of times we had to pass backwards. I sound like a Toeava fan boi, but she has the X factor that all our other attacking playmakers don't. Solid and versatile are not things that win you world cups

I'm 100% with you on Toeava. Those 2 tests at WA vs Aus was the best WA games by a NZ player in this World Cup cycle.

And yet somehow Noeline isn't feeling her. Says she's too small. WTF? Temepara George was quite small, that didn't stop her. Her assist numbers are off the chart and she makes Grace's job easier

A moot point with the injury.
I was hoping that Jamaica would get up. Go England!

I assume she can serve the ball up on a plate to other shooters too. But we'll never know now. Can be much worse than the service they got from the ones that played last night.

Grace Nweke's importance to the team can't be overstated. Netball NZ must change the rules to make her eligible for the Ferns at all costs. She presents a great target and the feeders aren't hesitating to let the passes fly
Like the ABs, we open the door to overseas selection and risk our best players playing in Aussie. It might improve us though,. It's done wonders for the likes of England.

IIRC we were the ones who backed out of the Trans Ta$man competition. If so, that wasn't smart. An exemption for senior Ferns playing in Australia would be the go

That was a heck of a performance. Absolutely destroyed Aus on their own court.
Total team performance, Nweke and Drury are taller and stronger than their opponents, and the whole team played awesome. They must keep Grace, she is a must keep if we want to continue to win

Haven't watched much netball in recent years.
Watched that 4th qtr.
My goodness is Nweke good.
Defenders made Aussie shooters life hell too.
-
Great win.
The commentary is dire. Aussie down 12 late in the 3rd quarter and yet the Aussie commentator thought some issue with the opening centre was monumental - “a turning point”. Far out.
Love seeing our girls use their speed in the front two thirds.
-
Aussies don't mind a bit of contact huh?
Or am I a little biased?
