Following a messy six months for netball in New Zealand, sports journalist Bridget Tunnicliffe joins us to look back on the issues that plagued the Silver Ferns' international season.

The ANZ Premiership is due to start in a month. Is there much excitement building in the country for their elite league? After pay cuts for players led nine Kiwi athletes to jump ship and sign with Australian clubs. What chance does the world number two team even have at the Commonweatlh Games? Considering their prep was impacted by the suspension of head coach Noeline Taurua.

Having covered the sport for two decades, Bridget Tunnicliffe shares her insights and opinions.

In past years the Diamonds have been the favourites heading into the Quad Series...

But this time there are a few question marks hanging over the team, with a host of squad changes and limited playing time during the pandemic.

And how will the shooting circle shape up now more experience has been injected back into the squad?

We talk to Sharoma Indigenous Corporation founders, Sharon Finnan-White and Aunty Roma Pregarc about The Indigenous Diamonds, who are playing in their inaugural season in the Townsville City Netball Premier League, how they felt when they heard the news about Donnell Wallam being selected for the Diamonds Squad and their dreams to see more Indigenous netball teams around the country.
