@heyycourtt Why does everyone say Vixens don't have a plan B? Vixens have 3 players covering each position with WD having 4 players. Last season Mannix was out for the season and Hannah was out for about 6 weeks where Zara took that position seamlessly. The Vixens are premiers for a reason.

@jessbee1999 They maybe contracted with their SSN clubs for preseason from Nov/Dec.

… you can’t mandate how other countries select their squads lmao. Also why single out Jamaica when the whole Rosebuds saga was literally only a couple years ago?

@AussieDiamonds Definitely dreams to have these two in the one side. Both never say die, leave everything on court and are super fit.

The C-WD combo of DREAMS (or nightmares 😉)

@KimHooper90 SA changed their GA whilst Weston was her direct opponent. Weston takes players out of the game. She's never been a flashy stat's winner. She's known as a serial pest for a very good reason. She shouldn't be under estimated. Flashy and stat's don't always tell the story.

It’s never good to write off Jo Weston ask the 2023 Con Cup hiding we took when she joined for the AU swing #netballchaos

@Dzu_nani SA changed their GA because of the work Jo was doing. Jo has never been big on Stat's but she takes players out of the game, forcing teams to force the ball making it easier for GK to intercept. It's why they call her a serial pest.

@rosieposiexo__ Weston doesn't win a lot of ball in stat's terms. What she does is take players out of the game. Remember SA changed their GA because Jo was slowing her from entering the circle.

Is it safe to say Garrett has taken over Weston? She played half the minutes and doubled the gains. #netballchaos #AUSvRSA

@carlymiaeakin I was wondering the same thing especially as the assistant coach is off on Diamonds duties

Would someone mind explaining to me how pre-season works without a coach?

@jeremypeterrich We don't need less imports just more teams to include more of our Aussie youth.

And people will still claim we need import restrictions in SSN because of #thepathway ...

@unicorndreamsz I agree. Netball needs stability to form the best team not mid season changes that will ultimately disrupt a team. More Teams and a strong reserves league with a trophy is required.

I hate this - Expansion is the key to SSN becoming bigger and better! Not mid season trade period. It’s too messy

@unicorndreamsz She's also training with Kip and Sophie every day. Her defensive skills are very Kiera like. She's young and wants to learn. Kip and Sophie are two pretty good mentors to learn from too.

Lily Graham could really be our next big thing in a couple of years. She’s got Cara moves, Gretel’s athleticism and has no issue with shooting long 😍 #NWYC2025

@unicorndreamsz Sunday has had a foot niggle all season and Jo played 100% of every match including 3 finals. I think it could be load management with these two. Pre season starts in Nov so not much downtime between now and Comm Games. Stacey knows what these 2 are capable of.

Aryang and Weston only getting named in 1 squad each is surprising. I’m tipping that Miss Stacey wants to see what Garrett can do ahead of the World Cup. Horjus, Mundy and Ervin all getting double time to show what they can do too. #netballchaos

@Louise_Mc90 I think that was Tracey Neville with the Mavs

Didn’t Simone say that the club wanted to go in a different direction when she announced she was leaving 👀

@unicorndreamsz 3 GF in 4yrs. 2 premierships in 6 seasons. Very few changes made. 75% of the players have come through Vic pathway. If it ain't broken. Don't fix it.

The vanilla vixens are so predictable 😭 #netballchaos (Congrats to Di though)

@ajayc1965 @YaThinkN They've added Em Mannix back into the team. So they have strengthened the team.

@YaThinkN Congrats to Di, I was hoping for a change but she deserves her chance & has super player support. Interesting to see so many "boring/vanilla" comments, sure they haven't changed anything but they have just won the premiership with that model. Excitement/change vs stability?

How very Vixens 😉 Good on Di and best of luck to her 😊

@Aaronaldo37 I'm not a Geelong fan but I do believe they should get a home final which is in Geelong. They've just updated the stadium and increased the capacity. No excuse not to be in Geelong.

Why are Geelong fans acting like Geelong is 6 hours away from Melbourne? Complaining that you play a QF on a Friday night instead of Saturday because your fans won’t be able to go is peak entitlement.. Fans of all Vic clubs live all across the state not next door to the G 🥴

@jessbee1999 I would say Vixens are stronger with return of Em Mannix. Firebirds have too many individuals and too many changes. On paper ok but it will take a lot to make a formidable team. Lightning seems unbalanced. Tbirds as well. Too defence heavy. I think Mavs and Giants did OK.

Stronger: Swifts Fever Same: Giants Lightning Firebirds Vixens Weaker: Thunderbirds Mavericks

@ameliajordan_ Cara is fairly good at GA especially if she keeps working on her super shots.

I don't understand the direction Lightning are going for their attack end. You've got 3 starting shooters & 1 will be benched. Steph is going to play GA the most and only benched if her shot is off. Are they trying to push towards Koenan being their next GA? #SSNSignings

@izzynetball and ever since they finish near or on the bottom of the ladder.

2022 - RAG 2023 - Simpson 2024 - Wallam 2025 - Veve Some reputation they’re creating here of dropping your best players year after year

@emmadee241 Here sign here and chill. Now continue to celebrate your premiership. Enjoy your time off before the Diamonds head off for international duties.

Vixens said don't worry guys we'll give you #SSNSignings 🤗 ...but we shall not give you #netballchaos 🙄😂
