    @booboo Here tis. Don't expect much, pretty poorly done for such an exciting game.

    Jeez Mokes. They were crappy highlights.

    Show me some D! Watson did some amazing stuff. Intercepts, tips. Stopping the bad guys scoring is just as important! (My daughter plays defence ... ).

    And there were plenty of better feeds to the shooters too.

    Just watched the replay, what a war. Apparently Ekanasio had been poor last year, but she was lights out unconscious in the final. Great to see redemption for Rore, Kopua, Folau and Langman

    @canefan delighted for Noeline, she should have been given the job a very long time ago, it’s a great story of redemption and also such an amazing turn around..
    I spent some time with her Whanau and partner at the time when they lived down in Rotorua ,I was commentating the NZ secondary schools waka ama sprints at the Blue Lakes.
    Noeline was coaching the Waikato /Bay of Plenty Majic at the time, I was blown away at how much commuting she was doing..absolutely crazy .,I was incredibly impressed with her planning ,so I guess it’s no great surprise this story has a great ending..extremely proud..!

    The best thing about that shitty highlights package (which I assume a cat put together walking backwards and forwards in the editing booth) was the shot of Taurua smiling when the Ferns got a good goal. Was cool to see that from a coach.

    Rumours are the Vodafone Warriors are putting together a package for Noelene to take off from Kearney.

    They are hoping she genuinely is a miracle worker.

    Has Reason been in hibernation ? Haven’t heard any of his claptrap for ages.

    I still won’t read if it’s an article about Netball though.

    Can she co-coach the Blues and Warriors at the same time.

    Very informative about the planning behind the last 10 months.

    One Goal: From the depths of humiliation, the Silver Ferns became world champions. Rarely has a sports team come so far, so fast.

    If she wins the comm games too she will put herself in the pantheon occupied by few coaches. I can't remember how many titles Lois Muir won

    @canefan Muir coacxhe3d Ferns to two WC wins. The 87 and the one that was shared by us Oz and Jamaica/

    Ruth Aitken coached us to a WC and 2 Comm Games wins.

    Netball wasn't a Comm Games sport during Muirs tenure

    NTB shows again that she's no fluke, making crucial changes that help the Silver Ferns edge Australia by a goal after overcoming a 5 goal deficit at 3/4 time

    Looks like the Ferns won a 1 point thriller to take a 2-1 lead in the constellation cup series
