    Stars and Silver Ferns shooter Monica Falkner will miss Sunday's ANZ Premiership netball match against the Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic due to a knee injury

    Stars and Silver Ferns shooter Monica Falkner will miss Sunday's ANZ Premiership netball match against the Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic due to a knee injury


    Falkner injured her left knee during the Stars' round one win over the Central Pulse and missed last weekend's game against the Mainland Tactix.

    The injury is to the same knee Falkner suffered a ruptured ACL to in 2019, therefore extra caution is being taken around allowing her sufficient recovery time.
