Hope all Roses fans are mentally preparing themselves for the centre court they don't particularly want to see go Commonwealth games

@aviwebrandon Yeah Nicola's arms terrifying shooters all season long in NSL
English
@NetballTruth She had a great campaign against England pity that Karla had an amazing season with the Crinums and she's also experienced so I think she missed out bc of that. Nicola is honestly our solid GK despite not having the campaign against the Roses but she's solid.

Gutted for Van Tonder 🥹💔. I guess she's still young and surely she can make the world cup team.

@ZaraTomkiActor As others have said Sammy N- played for panthers as injury cover for Tiana, but also was previously at sirens prior to doing her NSL. Was the stand out GA last internationals for SA
English
Thoughts? Was a bit surprised to not see Van der Merwe after a great season in NSl. Few other surprise omissions? SA fans happy?

@__Kutlwano__ Too GD heavy it seems- what a luxury. Van tonder unlucky to miss out too?
English
@NetballTruth Shadine was fantastic season in NSL and does deserve to go to CWG, but I just don’t see where she fits in at the moment 🥲
English
@YaThinkN Form wise and the rumours suggest. sWJ return but be brave team to sign her
English
Good Dog! I hope the first one is wrong and if correct, hope not going to my team, would hate to have to return my membership coz they employed an odious TERF just for starters 😞

Most likely NSL players moving to SSN for 2027: Sammy Wallace-Joseph, Funmi Fadoju, Rolene Streuker, Olivia Tchine Possible but less likely: Nicola Smith, Jayda Pechova, Tash Pavelin
English
@__Kutlwano__ Can't imagine she will be back. Said about Orr too but if import isn't starting player then think have to go
English
@mondli_thwala Completely agree! I think if went it would have to be as a SS expert for 5 mins and not a starting 7 player
English
Rolene is still not SSN ready I'm sorry! #netballchaos that elimination final proved it!

@sadietrent_92 Be interesting if will miss start of the season- If/when they announce who temporarily replaying and if teams are tactical about it too
English
@NetballTruth Emma and Raz should. Hannah is unlikely, but will still remain within the Mavs franchise for rehab, unsure about the others
English
Will Jasmine Brown, Vicki Oyesola, Hannah Knightbridge, Emma Thacker, Cassie Howard, Raz Quashie all get signed for 2027 off the back of season ending injuries and potentially not back for the start of the season in some cases?
English
@MelR18 I doubt it. Not enough court time for an import. Better to use import spots on starting players in my view
English
@NetballTruth I did wonder if they don't contract Orr again if that's where she'd go. Would be a good fit!
English
Can't imagine Emma Rayner & Nat Metcalf both stay at Thunder next year. Rayner needs more court time. Lightning, Rhinos, Pulse, Panthers could all benefit from a Wa/c
English
@sophieelg Depends if players are on multi year contracts too...
English
@NetballTruth Creak seems to be able to switch between GS/GA too though so I quite liked them together. I doubt Sonia will resign Rothwell as she hardly played her.
English
New GAs needed at Pulse, Forest, Panthers, Dragons...
Clark & Neil can't stay at the same club for another season. Some Nxt Gen elevated or imports?
English
@sophieelg Think she was stronger at GS then GA, feel fitness let her down pre injury
English
@NetballTruth If Tiana recovers from her injury I'd like to see her back at Panthers, she had a slow start but it really started to click just before she got injured.
English
Possible England reserves for Comm games:
Berri Neil, Ella Clark, Alicia Scholes, Gracie Smith, Alice Harvey, Tash Pavelin
3 or 4 to be picked?!
English
@cazzrhughes Same- think lot of people didn't watch after the SSN exodus
English
@NetballTruth This is the first year since 2018? I've not watched ANZP
English
@cazzrhughes Haven't watched much this year but rated her at pulse previously
English
@ambnbl96 Love to see Streuker have another season here with a really strong GA like Ella Clark so she isn't shut down in SE times. If Palavi wants more court time then I could see Rolene replacing her and go back to Mavs
English
Pearson, Tchine, Fadoju and Smith should go for their development. Strueker and Pechova would benefit from a couple more NSL seasons and finals experience so they can go out there and truly dominate imo #netballchaos
