The inclusion of Indigenous artwork and paying the artist is great but surely we're at a systemic level of change/impact these days?

Hand over my heart would have chosen cricket over netball if there were more pathways for girls when I was younger

Some of the best blak women I've ever met x

This shit has gotta stop. One thing is for certain though, this isn’t guna stop us speaking up or stepping up. Sent to my work email, no less.

Should quietly add that I'm not engaged but if someone wants to drop hints to a certain cricketer, I'm not gonna be mad...

Playing this at my wedding x

So when does this negative energy shift from Nellie to NA?? Asking for a friend..

Wonder how that Declaration of Committment is going?

@meganmaurice @maddyproud Tbh I've been posting my partner for months, everyone just assumed we were besties 🤷🏽‍♀️

cricket.com.au/news/mikayla-h… 😍😍😍

@tudorgrrrl I was generalising and wasn't specifically referring to this but if the boot fits 🤷🏽‍♀️

@BerylDaisy And then don’t offer them a contract…

Happy NAIDOC week to everyone except organisations and businesses who ask and expect First Nations people to organise, promote and educate for free, and on top of their usual work loads x

My partner is a professional cricketer and hated netball. Since explaining the rules and tactical set ups, they're obsessed. While seeing the entertainment value, she can understand why OG fans hate the 2 point shot and so *plot twist* she hates it now too #webothhate2020s

@YaThinkN @jackabbzz @saffyishere Fingers crossed for that round then

@BerylDaisy @jackabbzz @saffyishere Oh Damn! Hope is not a typo (says Tigers Rays USC) and hope you are playing by 22 May? Selfishly want to see you play live at USC 😏

Kelsey McPhee (played for Magic) is currently playing for Mendi Rays in the QLD Sapphire Series #netballchaos

@jackabbzz @YaThinkN @saffyishere Definitely won't be for a number of weeks, but hopefully this season!

@YaThinkN @saffyishere The best type of news!! Can’t wait to see her back out there 🥹

@YaThinkN Thanks kinda my point, DW is an exception and isn't really representative of pathway athletes. My ankle was dislocated and put back into place at Nissan. No breaks or ligament damage surprinslgy but still sore. TY for asking 😃

@BerylDaisy Though considering how Donnell didn't really come through the pathways at all to achieve this success, is sort of an indictment on the pathways? I mean, she got through despite them? btw How is your ankle?

I'm so glad we finally have an (identified) Aboriginal woman in the diamonds. This however, does mean our pathways are magically fixed. If anything, I think Donnells journey to an SSN contract outlines just how far we have to go in supporting our First Nation's athletes

Would also like to point out that recently there were 3 players (Mimi, Wallam & Coffey) featured in a week, but equally special to see Ali Tucker- Munro as assistant coach for Giants (a 1st?). Pathway development for coaches, umpires bench officials etc are important too 👍🏽
