    Maria Folau's future with Silver Ferns is becoming increasingly unclear

    Maria Folau's future with Silver Ferns is becoming increasingly unclear


    The shooter has rejected an offer from the Adelaide Thunderbirds for the 2020 Australian Super Netball competition - leaving her without a club on either side of the Tasman.

    Silver Ferns coach Noelene Taurua is unsure if Netball New Zealand policy allows for a player to represent their country in that situation.

    She says she still has no indication as to what Folau will do.



    The Silver Ferns play Australia in Auckland tomorrow.
