It’s beginning to look a lot like Thundercast…

In the final Thundercast of 2025, Lindsey wraps up the year and looks forward to Super League 2026. Joining the squad live at a training session in Manchester, Lindsey talks to international signing sensation Sophie Fawns. The Aussie attacker shares her reasons for joining Manchester Thunder, explains why she’s so excited to join El Cardwell and Lois Pearson in the shooting circle, and the kinds of skills she’s hoping to add to the team from her experience down-under. Sophie also reveals the one BIG reason you should but a ticket to see Thunder live in 2026. FANalysis takes a different turn as the team look back on the year that was. In a special TEAMalysis, Karen Grieg, Taylor McKevitt and Elia McCormick reflect on their learnings from 2025, what they’re excited for in the new season and give us a sneak peak at their Christmas plans. Baby Proteas player Karla Victor, who is training with Thunder, tells Lindsey about the festive season in South Africa. To round off the pod, Access All Areas goes big in an exclusive interview with Franchise owner David Jennings. With the inside scoop on what it’s like to watch a Thunder game as both a super fan AND Franchise Owner, David is open about the growth of Netball in the UK and his aspirations for Manchester Thunder. Finally Lindsey reveals the BEST Christmas present out there – Thunder season tickets have a sparkly 10% off before 31st Dec. Season tickets from as little as £50 for children (£7.14 per game) and £104.50 for adults (£14.93 per game), which includes all 7 home games including the arena games.

Lindsey is then joined by Fox Netball Commentator and Netball legend Sue Gaudion. The Australian presenter and outgoing General Manager of West Coast Fever, offers brilliant insight on Thunder’s new shooting circle which includes two players she’s been commentating on down-under: Eleanor Cardwell and Sophie Fawns.
