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?

This week we delight in the glory of our Queen Liz Ellis, who stole the win (and everyone's hearts!) on I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! We hear from former Australian Diamonds head coach, Lisa Alexander, on the recently announced Diamonds squad and she gives us her thoughts the inclusion of Adelaide Thunderbirds defender, Matilda Garrett.

Round seven served up some tight matches where we saw the come-back-queens of 2023, the Swifts come from behind (again!) to steal the Sydney Derby from the Giants. The Firebirds, Lightning and Magpies were again unable to put in a 60-minute performance this week; and we wonder if the bottom four teams on the ladder are even a slight chance of making finals as we reach the halfway point of the season.

The NSW Swifts have won the minor premiership for the first time in 13 years!

Every title they’ve won in the Super Netball era has been from an underdog position in second place, so this is now a very happy and comfortable territory for the team who are on a nine-game winning streak heading into the final round of the regular season.

Helen Housby has been a huge part of their success this year, as has her new shooting partner Romelda Aiken-George. Here, we catch up with the England Roses shooter to hear about what makes the Swifts so great in 2023.

Assistant coach and former Diamond Nat Avellino also shares her secrets about her work with the shooting end.
