Netball NZ has had a turbulent time of late, with leadership failures resulting in CEO Jennie Wyllie and a number of board members leaving their roles. As the fallout settles, the question is now being asked what damage this has done to netball in the wider New Zealand sporting landscape – especially now that there's other options for young girls looking to enter sport. Women in Sport Aotearoa CEO Susan Sawbridge told Piney that despite the turbulence, she doesn't think netball's importance, especially at a grassroots level, is diminishing to a point of concern. She says it continues to be one of the most accessible sports for girls and young women across the country, and there's a huge strength in the sport.

Dame Noeline Taurua gives her first interview since the saga began Dame Noeline Taurua has broken her silence, following her suspension and reinstatement as Silver Ferns coach. The 57-year-old and her coaching team were stood down in September after player concerns emerged from a Sydney training camp. Interim coach Yvette McCausland-Durie is leading the team on next week's Northern Tour. Speaking to Newstalk ZB's Mike Hosking in her first interview since the saga, Taurua says the suspension was horrific, and she feels partly vindicated, but not fully back in the job. She says her happy place is on court, training with the players, so there's still a bit to go until she's really back.

At this time of the year it's nice to reflect on some of the good things that happened throughout the year, and just days ago the nominees for the 63rd Halberg Awards were announced. There have been some huge moments in sport this year - from world championships to domestic and international recognition, and the annual Halberg Awards nominations provide a snapshot of the breadth of Kiwi achievement. What's really cool to see is how track and field athletics, snow sports and a wonderfully mixed collection of other sports dominate the list of contenders for top honours. It's been a year where individuals have excelled and teams have done pretty well, but suffered from inconsistency. I'd like to thank Geordie Beamish, nominated for Sportsman of the Year, for providing us all with the best feel good moments of the year. At the World Athletic Championships in Tokyo he survived a fall in the 3000m steeplechase semi-final, during which a rival stood on his face, and still managed to come in second. I thought that was going to be my most viewed sports video of 2025 – but it was surpassed days later by watching Beamish in the final become the first New Zealander to ever win track gold at a world athletics championships. It still makes me smile just thinking about the end of that race. His ‘late kick' is a life lesson on finishing well. Along with the extraordinary talented Hamish Kerr, who had another stellar year, and the success of emerging superstar Sam Ruthe, we've seen a genuine resurgence in New Zealand athletics. Alpine and snowboarders are well represented among the finalists, thanks to elite performances on international circuits. Alpine ski racer Alice Robinson is on fire at present, and I'm told by those in the know that freeskiers Luca Harrington, nominated in the Sportsman of the Year category, and Finley Melville Ives, nominated in the Emerging category, are very much medal contenders heading into the Winter Olympics next year. But amongst all the highlights there's also some soul searching – or maybe CEO searching - that needs to be done in 2026. The resignations of three high-profile CEOs in major sports — New Zealand Rugby's Mark Robinson, Netball New Zealand's Jennie Wyllie, and New Zealand Cricket's Scott Weenink, mark a significant shake-up in national sporting leadership in 2025. Robinson's departure from NZ Rugby follows years of navigating commercial and structural change within the sport. In one of the biggest and messiest stories of the year, Wyllie's exit from Netball NZ has prompted calls for greater transparency, and reflection of both governance and performance, particularly in light of contentious decisions about coaching roles. And in Cricket, Weenink stepped down after public disputes over the sport's direction, especially regarding the future of domestic T20 formats - suggesting there are deep strategic disagreements about how the game should evolve in New Zealand. Clearly there's some uncertainty ahead for three of our biggest sporting codes, but these changes also bring opportunities, a chance for fresh vision and leadership and, hopefully, better entertainment and performances for fans. In the meantime, congratulations to all the Halberg nominees. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two high profile resignations in two days hit the world of sport this week. 

New Zealand Netball's nightmare year continues. After the highly publicised standing down and reinstatement of Silver Ferns coach Dame Noeline Taurua, CEO Jennie Wyllie has now resigned. Sports reporter Jonty Dine spoke to Lisa Owen.

The resignation of Netball New Zealand CEO Jennie Wyllie had to happen. That's the view of former New Zealand men's netball skipper and commentator Kruze Tangira. Tangira told Heather du Plessis-Allan he believes the drama around the standing down then reinstatement of head coach Dame Noeline Taurua has plagued the year. He says it started all the way back in January at the Sydney training camp, and it's taken until December for there to be a real resolution. It was unfortunate that Taurua had to lose her job and have her name tarnished in the process, Tangira told du Plessis-Allan, but change needed to happen in order to rebuild the reputation of netball within New Zealand.

New Zealand's most scrutinised sports administrator of 2025 has resigned with immediate effect. Netball New Zealand chief executive Jennie Wyllie has been in the spotlight over the drawn-out Dame Noeline Taurua saga - where the Silver Ferns coach was temporarily suspended for high performance environment issues. Former Silver Fern Marg Foster says this is an opportune time for the sporting body to have a proper reset. "Over in Australia, with what they did with Netball Australia - they went through this situation and they've got the most amazing Liz Ellis running the show with her board and they're just flying. They are accelerating at huge rates, which is incredible." LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A quick Christmas message to all the PR people advising sports people and sporting organisations - could you please start talking? The less you talk, the dodgier you look. Stop hiding your CEOS and board chairs under bushes in the hope scandals and poor decisions will be overlooked and forgotten and swept under the carpet. Because if 2025 has taught us anything, it's that they won't and they don't. Jennie Wyllie is gone from Netball NZ. No surprises there. There'll be no surprises either when half the board follows her out the door. They'll be lining that up as we speak with announcements to come soon, I would've thought. But, like cricket, we've got the top dog at a top sporting body disappearing before Christmas without a once-over in the press from their higher-ups. Because Matt Whineray is not fronting this. He's clearly on holiday somewhere. In the world of American football right now, much is being made of Travis Kelce's media management. He refused to do interviews post-match because they lost. Yes that's TayTay's boyfriend, and yes that's the Kansas City Chiefs. They've won a couple of Super Bowls recently. Now they're not even going to make the playoffs. So he's upset, obviously, and doesn't wanna talk to pesky journos. And I get that. I understand that. They're athletes, they're emotional, they're up and down like a yo-yo. But when something goes down in the business of sport, in my view - you should front it in the same way as a regular company CEO or a politician would. The fans are the voters, the shareholders. And they deserve some respect. Respect is shown through communication and right now, they're getting the corporate equivalent of the middle finger. And all of this is made worse by the fact that this is what got them into this mess to begin with with Dame Noels. They didn't front. When they did, they didn't say anything. And then the mood reached fever pitch, almost every single Silver Fern who'd ever donned a bib came out and had their say, even the Government stepped in. Then, finally, things changed. One of the reasons I love netball as a sport is because of the straight-up, hard-as-nails personalities that tend to dominate it. They're no nonsense and they're straight up the guts. Management ought to take a leaf out of their book. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a week of meetings to try and break the deadlock, the fate of coach Dame Noeline Taurua is still up in the air. 

Dame Noeline Taurua has been in negotiations with Netball New Zealand today to see whether she'll be able to coach the Silver Ferns again. Taurua and her coaching team were stood down ahead of the Taini Jamison series earlier this month, in what was a bombshell announcement from Netball New Zealand. With the Silver Ferns heading into their next camp on October 6, the clock is ticking to try and find a resolution and break what appears to be a deadlock between Taurua, the Players' Association and Netball New Zealand.
