<![CDATA[The Adelaide Thunderbirds are the Super Netball champions for 2023 after defeating the Swifts in the grand final by just one goal in extra time in a match that will live on in Super Netball folklore. We discuss the impact Roses import and buy of the year, Eleanor Cardwell, has had in her first season with the Thunderbirds and the high penalty count for the usually disciplined Swifts that may have been the difference in such a tight contest.&amp;nbsp;
We discuss the new match rules that are being proposed in Cape Town later in the month, which are welcome adjustments to the ones currently in place. We also catch up with former Australian Diamonds captain, Laura Geitz, who gives us her thoughts on the grand final and how she thinks the Diamonds will fair at upcoming Netball World Cup.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Dare to dream

<![CDATA[The grand final dreams of West Coast Fever were stolen from their grasp in the dying moments of the preliminary final by the NSW Swifts, who will now battle the Adelaide Thunderbirds for the 2023 Super Netball trophy.&amp;nbsp;
We analyse how agonisingly close Fever came to having a shot at back-to-back titles and how teenager Sophie Fawns proved to be the game changer for the Swifts with hot hands during the super shot period.&nbsp;
For the second time this season we welcome back Dr Alan Pearce, neuroscientist, to discuss an incident concerning Sasha Glasgow, who was diagnosed with concussion after colliding with the post.&nbsp;]]>

Outrageous scenes

<![CDATA[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.&amp;nbsp;]]>

Netball needs a shake up

<![CDATA[After one of the closest Super Netball seasons in history, we saw some huge unexpected blowouts in Round 10. &amp;nbsp;Three of the matches of the round were very lopsided, particuarly the contest between the West Coast Fever and Queensland Firebirds, which saw the home side record the highest-ever total in a game (97 goals) and the largest-ever winning margin (34 goals). &nbsp;Beyond the results, we discuss the Collingwood Magpies and their doubtful future, Netball Australia’s improving finances, and concussion protocols (again).]]>
