    Diamonds netball coach Stacey Marinkovich believes the player pipeline to her world champion side is being held up by the influx of internationals playing Super Netball in Australia

    Diamonds netball coach Stacey Marinkovich believes the player pipeline to her world champion side is being held up by the influx of internationals playing Super Netball in Australia


    Speaking after losing the Constellation Cup to New Zealand, Marinkovich says contenders for the Diamonds aren't getting enough experience because almost twenty per cent of the competition's players are overseas imports, the latest being Silver Ferns star Grace Nweke .

    Of the sixteen spots available in the goal circle across the eight teams, ten are taken up by internationals.

    Marinkovich is bemoaning the lack of experience and the fact every tall shooter is from another country.
