Proof how close league truly is; clubs rally against home side : Five things we learned from Super Netball Round 3April 30th, 2024 11:41 amAnd if Round 3 is anything to go by, the competition is tight.
A different story played out between the Queensland Firebirds and NSW Swifts, in a clash that featured the Swifts come from behind to steal the win. Contrary to last week’s suggestion of the importance of a home crowd, it proved the opposite this week with all four winning teams getting wins on the road.
The Thunderbirds went about their business in a similar way, and while the Lightning used the power of their home crowd to get back into the contest, it was not enough in a tight overtime period. Tracey Neville has made some big moves since being named head coach of the Mavericks late last year, but she made more than one big move on the weekend.
Most intriguingly, it’s worth watching what Neville does from here with her 11-player squad. Does Jok stay in the squad as a swing player and replace injury replacement Jessie Grenvold? Only time will tell.Source: Getty ImagesGIANTS head coach Julie Fitzgerald is well known for not making a wealth of changes, but had to pull the pin on her starting seven after a six-goal opening quarter against the Vixens on Sunday.
However, the move did not quite work in the GIANTS’ favour – instead allowing Vixens wing defence Kate Eddy to nullify the sharp shooter outside the circle.Young gun Matisse Letherbarrow more than held her own with 26 goals to her name, including six Suncorp Super Shots, as Jo Harten moved into goal attack – a role she revolutionised at the GIANTS over many years.
