‘I think I’ve found out my team from all the different stories out there.’
Liz Watson has all-but-confirmed her move to Sunshine Coast Lightning as the deadline looms large in netball’s protracted player pay deal negotiations.
“I’ve definitely made that decision ... I’m just waiting for that contract,” Watson told AAP of her playing plans.“I feel very supported, even from the Vixens family - they’ve been incredible and they’ll always be my family.” Having won the World Cup last month, Watson and her Diamonds teammates are now preparing for October’s Constellation Cup in Australia followed by the visit of South Africa.
One sign of progress is confirmation this week of details around the new Super Netball team, with the Melbourne Mavericks replacing the ill-fated Collingwood Magpies.
