Chatting to Declan Byrne on 'The Saturday Sledge' Turner reveals the Penrith Panthers connection that has helped turn around the Swifts form, why the derby versus the Giants are always extra spicy and what policies, including pregnancy, still need work going forward in Australian netball.

The NSW Swifts have given their fans a Christmas gift by announcing the news of Verity Simmons' signing.It was this time last year that the two-time premiership winner announced her retirement from netball after 11 seasons at the top, instead choosing to pursue AFL Women's footy with the West Coast Eagles.Now, the NSW junior will switch back to her first love, filling the spot of pregnant Swifts midcouter Maddy Proud for the 2025 season and feeding New Zealand import Grace Nweke.We caught up with Vez to hear how it all came about on the day of her signing — turns out it all started with some rumours and a Facebook message.

A dominant display by the Silver Ferns dismantled Australia in the Constellation Cup 3-1, as New Zealand claimed the trophy for just the third time in 14 series. We discuss the Diamonds challenges throughout the four-game contest, such as fatigue and their struggle to get directly to post. Before we talk with Radio New Zealand sports journalist Bridget Tunnicliffe about how the victory has been received across the ditch. And how the Silver Ferns will do next year without Grace Nweke, as the goal shooter joins Super Netball to play for the NSW Swifts.

The Silver Ferns will be missing Grace Nweke next season as the shooter will be making a shift over to Australia.  The 22-year-old has signed on with the New South Wales Swifts in Australia's Super Netball competition, leaving her ineligible for the Silver Ferns.  Nweke joined Jason Pine for a chat about her decision, and what went into making it.  “I was definitely feeling like I needed a change up just in, both lifestyle, and in my netball, and I guess that life experience with a big move.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Towering shooter Grace Nweke won't play for New Zealand next year as she signs with the New South Wales Swifts in Australia's Super Netball competition for the 2025 season.  The 22-year-old – who has played for the Northern Mystics since debuting in the ANZ Premiership in 2019 – was announced today by the Swifts via a statement on their website.  Grace Nweke told NZME she was keen to move across the ditch because she wasn't challenged enough in Aotearoa.  “I didn't see any other club in New Zealand being able to tick those boxes for me in terms of growing my game and developing there so an opportunity to play for the Swifts came across to me and I really had to sit on it - but do feel right now that this move will be massive for growing my netball.”  Matt Whineray, chair of the Netball New Zealand board, joins Piney to discuss what this means for NZ Netball.  “This is an opportunity for Grace – there's a real commitment from Grace to the black dress and the Silver Ferns in the long term.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
