Robinhood Stars Defeated Te Wānanga O Raukawa Pulse 57-53 In Palmerston North

18 April, 2021 The Robinhood Stars cemented their status as a team to watch this season with a maiden ANZ Premiership win over Te Wānanga o Raukawa Pulse to open their 2021 campaign. A 57-53 victory at Fly Palmy Arena in Palmerston North marked the Stars first ever win over the two-time champions with their new-look side leading from start to finish and showing patience to shake off a determined Pulse. But the Pulse, without Silver Fern Ameliaranne Ekenasio and introducing a number of new combinations, showed they are not about to relinquish their title without a fight pushing hard until the final

Photo: PHOTOSPORT The team has a new coach, four new players and will be without their star goal attack, Silver Ferns captain Ameliaranne Ekenasio for the foreseable future as she takes time away from the game due to exhaustion. Ekenasio missed last month s pre-season tournament and had not been training with the Pulse ahead of the season opener. Pulse CEO Fran Scholey said the past 18 months had taken a toll on Ekenasio. After a distrupted 2020 premiership season predominantly based out of Auckland, Pulse captain Claire Kersten has learned not to look too far ahead. While we look like we ve got a really normal season at this stage, that s not necessairly guarunteed 17 weeks is a long time, Kersten said.

ANZ Premiership: Spotlight shines brightly on Australian netball legend Caitlin Bassett with Magic

Australian shooting great Caitlin Bassett brings star-power to the ANZ Premiership with the Waikato-Bay of Plenty Magic. The fifth edition of the ANZ Premiership begins next Sunday with the two-time defending champion Pulse getting the competition started against the new look Northern Stars, who have recruited strongly. BRENDON EGAN looks at five players, who will be under the spotlight this season and must shine for their teams.

If Bassett wants to feature for Australia at next year’s Commonwealth Games, she’ll need to regain top form for the Magic. Bassett lost her Australian starting goal shoot role to Cara Koenen in Ma
