Many hoped that at least one New Zealand team would join Super Netball for 2027. With a new broadcast deal on the horizon the league put out an expression of interest, hoping to expand and add two new sides to the competition. Sadly, reports across the ditch say it is not a financially viable option for the kiwis.We unpack this disappointing news before we analyse the games from round four. There was a really mixed bag of results over the Easter long weekend, with margins ranging from seven to as many as 23 goals.

Super Netball expansion too expensive for NZ teams

Maddie Hay was linked to the Giants for eight years and bled orange before the Super Netball club decided not to re-sign her at the end of the 2025 season. The midcourter felt like it was the end of the road for her in the competition and despite feeling like she had more to give, announced her reluctant retirement. Fast forward to January of this year and she got an interesting call from her former teammate Amy Parmenter asking if she'd be interested in a move to Melbourne. Now she's playing at the Mavericks as a pregnancy cover for Molly Jovic and has found her love for the sport again. Here she chats about her unexpected career trajectory, the lack of opportunity for homegrown Australian players and where it would be good to locate more teams.

It’s been a tough week for the Mavericks who had control of the Melbourne Derby for the majority of the match before they lost Tara Hinchliffe to an ACL injury and fell to the might of the Melbourne Vixens in an extra-time thriller. Elsewhere, the Sunshine Coast Lightning pulled off back-to-back one-goal victories at home, before the Queensland Firebirds and Giants struggled to meet Super Netball standard. You’ll hear our regular game analysis and our thoughts on potential innovations for the modern game.

Emily Mannix and Sharni Layton are two of the most beloved goal keepers in the game. There's been big changes for the both of them this season, as Em returns to the court for the Melbourne Vixens after giving birth to her daughter Mabel and Sharni leaves Victoria behind to take on a new role as the assistant coach of the West Coast Fever. The double header in Sydney was so successful last weekend offering two Super Netball games for the price of one — attracting a record home and away crowd — we thought why not be a bit cheeky and offer our listeners a two for one deal as well. Hear from Em first, as she details the tough start to life her baby girl faced after she was born with the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. Before Sharni talks us through her decision to join Dan Ryan's coaching staff, as well as her thoughts on the shock news of England Roses head coach Jess Thirlby stepping down just four months out from the Commonwealth Games.

We dive into all of that in this week’s episode and hear from those within the inner sanctum about how lonely it can be to be a woman in such a high-profile position. Plus there’s all our usual game analysis of the Super Netball league after round two. Are the Thunderbirds superhuman? They are sure living up to their favourites tag for 2026. Coming up on this episode of The Netty Life we talk about the shock resignation of England head coach Jess Thirlby four months out from the Commonwealth Games.

Silver Ferns dodge a bullet for the Commonwealth Games

Will it be the most unpredictable season of Super Netball yet? Everyone keeps saying so. Maybe that’s because there have been so many roster changes. 11 brand new players got their first taste of Super Netball in round one. Eight more switched clubs and playing colours. Despite there being so many fresh faces and combinations, it was easy to pick a clear standout. In this episode we fan girl over Adelaide Thunderbirds shooter and South African import Elmeré van der Berg, before we touch on a scoring change and share our detailed game analysis.

A decade of Super Netball

International controversies, a nail-biting Super Netball finale and the Constellation Cup back in the Diamonds’ trophy cabinet. It has been an epic year for the sport as we farewell 2025 and look ahead to what’s to come with a new head coach at the Melbourne Mavericks, possible team expansion and a new direction for Australian netball under the guidance of Liz Ellis.

That’s a wrap

The Diamonds have won back the Constellation Cup but it came at a significant cost, when Australian defender Sunday Aryang ruptured her ACL in the final second of the series. The devastating finish meant the celebrations were quite subdued and felt rather hollow. We discuss the highs and lows of the four games, the players that wowed us from both teams and our thoughts on the new format to determine a winner. Noeline Taurua has also been reinstated “effectively immediately” as Silver Ferns head coach but won’t be joining her team for the Northern Tour. So what’s the go with that?

Ecstasy and agony

The Diamonds were back to their sensational best against a South African side that failed to capitalise on their chances against the world number one team. This series against the Proteas saw four Diamonds debut on home soil as head coach, Stacey Marinkovich, leaves no stone unturned on the road to the World Cup in 2027. We also discuss the ongoing feud with Netball New Zealand’s board and their Head Coach, Dame Noeline Taurua, who will not coach the side in the upcoming Constellation Cup against the Diamonds.

The 2025 Super Netball season concluded with one of the most thrilling grand finals in the sport's history, as we watched the Melbourne Vixens narrowly defeat the West Coast Fever by just one goal. In this episode, we chat with Kate Eddy, who is still flying high after her team’s dramatic win, and we catch up with retiring Adelaide Thunderbirds stalwart, Hannah Petty, who is excited for what’s next after netball. We analyse the grand final - how did the Vixens manage to come out on top, and how did the Fever lose the seemingly unlosable game?

Fever demolish Swifts en route to grand final

We don’t know what the future holds for the Giants, but at least we can sleep peacefully at night knowing Jo Harten was sent off in style in her last Super Netball game. The final round of the regular season delivered our first extra-time match for 2025 and determined the four semi-finalists set to battle it out for the trophy: West Coast Fever, NSW Swifts, Adelaide Thunderbirds and Melbourne Vixens.

Harten’s fairytale finish

The West Coast Fever have won the minor premiership for the very first time in the club’s history, and spots two and three on the ladder have been secured by the NSW Swifts and the Melbourne Vixens, leaving the last finals spot up for grabs in Round 14. The Queensland Firebirds lost their 11th straight game and Super Netball recognised NAIDOC Week for the second instalment of First Nations round. But we have major worries about the Giants and their future. As Jo Harten announces her retirement from domestic netball we wonder will the Giants cease to exist in 2026?

English legend and Giants co-captain Jo Harten has joined an elite group of players in the 200 club amid speculation that this could be her last season before retirement. The players’ association has released their inaugural anonymous athlete survey and it seems there’s still a fair bit of work to do to repair the relationship between the playing group and Netball Australia after the 2023 bitter pay dispute. We analyse all the Super Netball Round 12 results with just two weeks of the regular season left to play before finals and catch up with Aussie import Tyler Orr ahead of her Netball Super League Grand Final appearance for the London Pulse.

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.

Watch out universe, Super Netball is coming

Netball New Zealand want World Netball to change their eligibility rules, which prevent players representing two different countries at consecutive World Cups.

The Casey Kopua effect

The Giants may be frontrunners for a consecutive wooden spoon but they are the most interesting team in the Super Netball league right now. Julie Fitzgerald’s team made global headlines twice over the past week when Jamaican import Jodi-Ann Ward was sadly ruled out with an ACL tear and when they signed retired New Zealand legend Casey Kopua as her replacement. Sending us all into a headspin. Our interview this week is with David Capron, who joins us to share their story as a gender diverse athlete amidst the controversial decision by some Victorian grassroots competitions to ban transgender players from participating in their women’s divisions.

The halfway point

But she also delivered a brilliant one liner for a second straight week, which is giving us great inspiration for our episode titles. Will Gretel Bueta make a comeback in 2025?

Maybe we just need to go to the pub?

Super Netball round five brought us plenty of entertaining viewing as several coaches gave their teams a spray in the timeout huddles. The closest game all weekend was decided by eight goals, as mistakes were plenty and the contests became scrappy. Firebirds co-captain Ruby Bakewell-Doran came out publicly to support her friend and ex-teammate Remi Kamo in a brave show of solidarity, as she continues to call out mistreatment and a lack of accountability at her old club. Plus, we discuss the confusion around the New Zealand Silver Ferns eligibility rules. Do you need to be a centurion to play abroad or not? The athletes seem to be on a different page to the national netball board.

Training Season's Over

Well, well, well. Not only has the two-point super shot infiltrated the UK Superleague. It’s now also going to be introduced in the ANZ Premiership in New Zealand. So what does this mean? Are the top three netball leagues in the world becoming too similar? If each competition has the same rules, is there anything left to set them apart? And does this indicate that it’ll only be a matter of time before we see a two-point shot in international netball? Would that be a bad thing? We mull it over, as we discuss the results from the Team Girls Cup in Adelaide and the first two rounds of NSL 2.0 with Birmingham Panthers’ defender Gabby Coffey.&nbsp;

A loved up off-season

The NSW Swifts have given their fans a Christmas gift by announcing the news of Verity Simmons' signing. It was this time last year that the two-time premiership winner announced her retirement from netball after 11 seasons at the top, instead choosing to pursue AFL Women's footy with the West Coast Eagles. Now, the NSW junior will switch back to her first love, filling the spot of pregnant Swifts midcouter Maddy Proud for the 2025 season and feeding New Zealand import Grace Nweke. We caught up with Vez to hear how it all came about on the day of her signing — turns out it all started with some rumours and a Facebook message.
