WTF? They won only one game last year and yet they win the team of the year competition? Are we to accept celebrating mediocore in this country? The Silver Ferns bet the world champions in Netball, The All Blacks bet the world champions in Rugby and the Kiwis are the current world champions in League and also bet the Kangaroos. Why are those achievements not considered to be better than a team that only won one game?

WTF indeed!

I think the All Whites captured the heart of the Nation by getting as far as they did in the World Cup, however (and it is a big however) it was more about them not losing than actually winning.

IM(not so)HO - the Silver Ferns, the All Blacks and the Kiwis were much more deserving - after all, they all won and consistently won game after game after game.

As for the Coach of the Year - where the hell was Ruth Aitken? Why was she not on the list? She has been one of the most successful Netball Coaches this country has ever had.
