Giant suspension rocks SSN
Round six threw up the league's first two-minute suspension of 2024 as Giant Jamie-Lee Price was sent to the sideline. Fever have now shot four points clear to sit at the top of the ladder, while the Lightning brought the Vixens winning streak to an end.
In the lead up to the first of a two-part First Nations Round this season we talk to Sharon Finnan-White – one of only three Indigenous Diamonds to have represented Australia throughout the team’s 85-year history and a proud Dunghutti and Gumbaynggirr woman.
We also take a look at what to expect from some of the teams when it comes to making a genuine connection with our First Nations culture in National Reconciliation Week. -
Scoreboard shocker
In round five, the West Coast Fever and Melbourne Vixens continued their unbeaten streak to remain ladder leaders.
The Fever hit their highest Super Netball score yet this season at 94 goals and the Vixens claimed the first instalment of the Sargeant-McKinnis Cup.
But the biggest story was neither of these moments and actually revolved around a scoreboard drama between the Giants and Sunshine Coast Lightning.
Where an error by a bench official swung the game into extra time ... some 50 minutes after the whistle had been blown.
Here to fill us in on how it all went down, eventually resulting in the Giants breaking their 2024 hoodoo to get their first victory, is Diamonds star Sophie Dwyer. -
Extra-time strikes twice
Round three saw two matches where teams could only be separated by extra time.
A Jamaican legend hit 8000 Super Netball goals and an English Rose became a centurion.
The Giants and Mavericks are still without wins and Fever make it three wins from three rounds.
Plus we hear from sports journalist Bridget Tunnicliffe about Netball New Zealand’s desire to enter three of their teams in the Super Netball league. -
Fever turns up the temp
Fever announce themselves as true contenders for 2024 after just two rounds after two massive victories.
Diamonds goal keeper and new Lightning recruit Courtney Bruce drops by to discuss the importance of mental health, finding balance after switching clubs and her puppy, Oliver.
Before we discuss the possibility of New Zealand joining Super Netball and the new rules around dangerous play. -
Welcoming the Mavericks
The 2024 Super Netball season is officially underway and we welcomed brand new club the Mavericks to the family.
Round one saw attendance records broken, the West Coast Fever start their season with a 19-goal bang, and the Adelaide Thunderbirds cap a fantastic weekend for South Australian netball with a tight victory.
On this podcast we chat with Melbourne Vixens defender Rudi Ellis, who was one of the absolute standouts in the Melbourne derby. -
