Well... hasn't the last 48 hours been eventful? Who said netball can't be exciting! Who said netball and the powers that be would continue to make minute-to-midnight decisions that change the shape of the sport? The Supe

The LEGEND that is Cath Cox joins us on the show this week to discuss the state of netball in 2022 (it's GOOD!), the nervousness of picking the Diamonds as well as the importance of grassroots netball funding through the

The Diamonds squad has been DROPPED so we react straight after the announcement with a cheeky hot take or two! THEN we drop our ups and downs from the last few SSN rounds. Ain’t that bloody good!

On this week's episode, we are in LOVE with a finely tuned Firebirds side that demolished the Lightning, we're not surprised by the Fever's hot rollin' through the league and we're absolutely enamoured by the youngsters

WARNING: We had major issues with our recording for this one, unfortunately! So you'll be listening to a Zoom call which Nick has tried insanely hard to salvage. BUT on this episode, we discuss all things round 1 of the

The SSN is nearly hereeeee and we are BIG TIME BACK NOW! On this short and sweet number ahead of the first centre pass of the season, all three of us deliver some FIRIN' takes on what to expect from round 1 of the Suncor

Aww YEAH! The Suncorp Super Netball is nearly back and we're here to CHAT and dust off the cobwebs after a few months of being dormant! So we get IN on the upcoming Team Girls Cup and predict who takes the victory and ho

IT'S BEEN A WHILEEEEEEE! But we're BACK for a free agency analysis via ZOOM. You'll hear Abs the clearest she's EVER been! There's all the tea in the world, some cheeky teases and we answer YOUR questions as the free age

WE ARE BACK AGAINNN! Virtually, once more, as Luke got the traffic timing wrong to Nick's new place but that doesn't stop us! We dive RIGHT IN on the Super Netball, what the Swifts did right and where the Giants struggle

WHOA! It's a SURPRISE pre-Grand Final show that we recorded literally TWO HOURS before the game INSIDE Nissan Arena! So naturally, we keep it nice and trim so you can get some discussion going before the game. It's all S

It's an ALL-TIMER from us as Nick and Luke FIGHT over who flops worse (it's Luke) and Abbey has to witness it and deal with it hehe. We also discuss the 2032 Netball bid, the Diamonds selections and the notable omissions

WOW! This episode title makes no sense because Nick absolutely cooked the outro and now we've roasting him forever via the episode title. BUT WE ARE BACK! Fair warning: Luke and Abs are both tuning in via phone as the lo

It is a COLOSSAL episode today where Abs SHOCKS everyone with another swear word WHOA! We dive right into the new South Australian hub and the remarkably quick and transparent job new CEO Kelly Ryan has done in ensuring

A little LESS spice this week as we dive into a round of SURPRISES and UPSETS! WOW. We talk about the Giants slide at the moment, how impressive the Fever and Swifts game was, the choke of all chokes from the Lightning a

BIG TIME LANGUAGE WARNING! There are a lot of swears (from Nick, of course) in this JAM-PACKED episode of netball goodness where we dive into the Fever Vixens drama that unfolded last week and the SSN's lack of response

ROUND SEVENNNN is over and the Lightning played one of their best games in yonks, the Vixens had one of their worst games in yonks and Nick thinks the Swifts were pretty stinky this weekend so please forgive him for bein

Luke is in lockdown, Nick is lonely and ABBEY RETURNS! The Fever are still RED HOT this season, while the Thunderbirds notched their first solid win against a Vixens team that is still struggling to keep their finals hop
