In summary

So, that wasn’t half bad was it? The Super Netball season came to a climax, satisfyingly so, despite something of a boilover in the grand final that robbed the more optimistic neutrals of possible extra-time (maybe even two) and the kind of excitement to rival last year’s epic.

There was the small matter of some tarten-clad foreign raiders ransacking the joint in Sydney with a gutsy performance tinged with revenge.

We saw an incredible AFL comeback to keep alive a team’s season and, oh yes, we had an NRL thriller won by a golden point kick from an unlikely source.

Not at all bad in my humble opinion. That’s all folks. Don’t forget we’ll be back tomorrow for what will be a lighter day of sport – Adam Collins is your man then – but from me, until next time, it’s been a pleasure.
