Quick update:

Australia are playing NZ in the final of the 11^th World Netball Championships tomorrow morning in Kingstown, Jamaica (9:30am on the ABC). Guaranteed to be a great game – Australia only won their semi over a strong English team by 9 goals while NZ took down hometown favourites Jamaica by 19 goals (pity it wasn’t broadcasted – would have been a brilliant match). The Aussie girls need to come out strong and play consistently through the match, watch those passes across the circle and get to 80% in the goal. Lets’ hop Jill puts out the strong defensive combination of Harby-Williams and Ellis on the court.  The lack of coverage of NZ matches mean I don’t have much to go on their current form – but they are always going to finish strong in a Trans-Tasman clash, playing for pride and to stop the Australian dominance of the world platform. NZ has always had a strong team and their lethal shooter of Van Dyke will prove a challenge for the Aussie defenders to shut down. Though lets hope the Aussie pull off a 4^th consecutive World title win!
