    Netball New Zealand's picking up what Lisa Alexander's putting down

    Netball New Zealand's picking up what Lisa Alexander's putting down


    The Australian netball coach wants the trans-Tasman Constellation Cup to return to the five-match structure last played in 2013, rather than the current four tests, which is decided by points differential.

    That was the case this year, with the Diamonds winning.

    Netball New Zealand's Head of Events and International Kate Agnew says they haven't spoken to Alexander, but understands the reasoning.
