Build it and they will come

Super Netball fans have stepped it up a gear this year and they're breaking records all over the place. Crowds, memberships, you name it. The sport is experiencing a huge boom in popularity across the board.  

So why is this happening? Is it the Matildas' effect? We take a deep dive into this topic.  

Before we pick a side and debate whether the league really does need to introduce a third round to extend the length of its season.  

Plus, we analyse each of the Round 14 matches and the Adelaide Thunderbirds minor premiership win. Before hearing from Sunshine Coast Lightning captain Steph Fretwell as her team prepares for the semi-finals.

Giant suspension rocks SSN
Published:

Round six threw up the league's first two-minute suspension of 2024 as Giant Jamie-Lee Price was sent to the sideline. Fever have now shot four points clear to sit at the top of the ladder, while the Lightning brought the Vixens winning streak to an end.

In the lead up to the first of a two-part First Nations Round this season we talk to Sharon Finnan-White – one of only three Indigenous Diamonds to have represented Australia throughout the team’s 85-year history and a proud Dunghutti and Gumbaynggirr woman.

We also take a look at what to expect from some of the teams when it comes to making a genuine connection with our First Nations culture in National Reconciliation Week. 

Two keepers for the price of one
Published:

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.
