As the Diamonds gear up to face their fiercest rivals, the Silver Ferns, so do their Aussie and New Zealand male counterparts.

For a second year running, the Trans-Tasman Cup will be played as a double header alongside the women’s Constellation Cup, with all matches to be televised.

The Australian team will debut its new name – the Kelpies – when they hit the court Thursday for Game 1, after a long time between games and a lot of training.

Here to help us preview the men’s series and share some of his netball story is midcourter Riley Richardson.

We hope you enjoy hearing more about his career!

With the news that Super Netball has aligned with Whoopi Goldberg's All Women’s Sports Network and World Netball announcing that the Netball World Cup will now be contested as a biannual event, it has been a massive week for the sport.

Round 11 showcased some epic battles as the NSW Swifts stay on top, with just the slightest goal difference keeping West Coast Fever at bay.

The Queensland Firebirds suffer their ninth consecutive loss and are the first team to be ruled out of finals, while the Melbourne Vixens are rising as the unexpected contenders in the competition at this crucial time of year.

Plus Zoe Cransberg joins us following Fever’s victory in the Super Netball Reserves final.

As the news breaks that the Diamonds World Cup selection details are being held over the players heads by Netball Australia until they sign their next CPA, we are beginning to get tired of the unnecessary mess.

Something needs to change at the top, as the sport has been dragged through the mud in the media more times than we can count in the past few years and enough is enough.

Beyond that disturbance, there is plenty of Super Netball analysis to be discussed as we wrap the penultimate round of the 2023 season. Including the Swifts’ efforts to lock up the minor premiership with a nine-game winning streak before the last weekend of action ahead of finals.
