With just two weeks left to play in Super Netball's regular season, the sport has reportedly sold the grand final hosting rights to Perth Arena, despite the Melbourne Vixens likely to secure the minor premiership.
With just two weeks left to play in Super Netball's home and away season, the competition has reportedly sold the rights for its 2022 Grand Final to Perth Arena.
It is a move that demonstrates the desperate position the sport must find itself in after facing financial hardship during the pandemic, and will no doubt enrage netball fans, who were promised a new era of open and clear communication from Ryan when she took on the role last June.
Currently, the Melbourne Vixens are eight points clear of the West Coast Fever at the top of the ladder, only needing to win their match against the Adelaide Thunderbirds on Saturday to cement the minor premiership. They beat the Fever at the Queensland State Netball Centre with jubilation, but told the media it would have felt extra special to have done it in front of a packed stadium at John Cain Arena.
