    Netball in New Zealand is reeling, with news long-serving New Zealand coach Dame Noeline Taurua has been stood down after an apparent player revolt...and WON'T coach the Silver Ferns against South Africa in the Taini Jamison Series later this month

    Netball in New Zealand is reeling, with news long-serving New Zealand coach Dame Noeline Taurua has been stood down after an apparent player revolt...and WON'T coach the Silver Ferns against South Africa in the Taini Jamison Series later this month


    Yvette McCausland-Durie has been brought in to coach with Liana Leota as assistant, meaning current Ferns assistant Deb Fuller is also on the outer.

    NNZ board chair Matt Whineray denies reports there's been a player boycott of Taurua.



    Whineray wouldn't confirm when or if Taurua will return and says all players are on board for the South African series starting on Sunday-week.
