    The Silver Ferns have been dealt an eleventh hour blow ahead of tonight's second Constellation Cup test with Australia in Auckland

    The Silver Ferns have been dealt an eleventh hour blow ahead of tonight's second Constellation Cup test with Australia in Auckland


    Defender Phoenix Karaka's been ruled out with concussion, however midcourter Gina Crampton's been cleared to return from a knee injury.

    Centre pass is at 7:30pm.

    Meanwhile, A riled up Australian coach's done little to douse Kayla Cullen's delight around her newest netball contract.

    The injured Silver Ferns defender has signed with the Swifts for next year's Australian Super Netball competition and will need special dispensation to play for New Zealand.

    Diamonds coach Lisa Alexander's expressed dismay at the move because it comes at the expense of a young Australian.

    Cullen can see where Alexander's coming from.
