After two months of silence and speculation, Dame Noeline Taurua has finally spoken out.
In a raw and revealing interview with Sport Nation's Millsy & Guy, the newly reinstated Silver Ferns coach opened up about why she was stood down, the mystery surrounding the players’ complaints and the unknown of returning to camp.
“I’m actually quite confident that the majority of players are supportive of me,” she says.
“But if I get in there and I find it’s different, and I don’t have the majority, I will walk.”
“My role is bigger than me and I will walk gladly and put my hand up.”
From Grace Nweke’s emotional plea for her return, to Taurua’s honest take on “old school approaches” and anonymous allegations, this is a must-listen for every netball fan.
