What about the Silver Ferns? Another year of uncertainty for our own league while they chase Aussie dollars. Typical.
ffs can't even get a TV deal sorted and now the Mystics wanna bail. Netball NZ is a shambles.
Honestly if the Mystics go it's not the end of the world. Super Netball is way more competitive. Need to follow the money
Aww shame, the Mystics have a good thing going in Auckland. Hope they stay in the ANZ Premiership somehow.
So sick of these teams chasing cash instead of building the grassroots here. Greedy and short-sighted.
nah, grassroots already struggling. This just makes it worse.

If they can't secure a broadcast deal by now, maybe the league deserves to die. Sorry not sorry.
Exactly. The TVNZ deal was a joke from day one. Need to invest in streaming.
is netball even that big anymore? feels like everyone i know watches league or footy now
so true. league is where the real athletes go now.
the international game is slipping. But netball has a loyal fanbase here.
Worked in netball media back in the day. This has been brewing for years. NZ just can't compete with Aussie cash.
get stuffed. If they can't lead the ANZ, they'll get exposed in Super Netball.
Would the Mystics even be competitive in Super Netball? They get smashed in the ANZ Premiership half the time lol
lol cope. They'd smash most of those Aussie teams with their current lineup.
Watch them fail over there and come crawling back. Then what? Empty stadiums like every other sport.
whatabout the state of our stadiums though. can't even host a proper game.
