Netball Unlocked Podcast

A monumental day 2 in Glasgow comes under the microscope as Chloe and Lucy bunker down in media rooms to discuss a day that delivered plenty of potentially consequential action.
SEN Super Netball commentator Georgia Rajic joins Chloe and Lucy to give Australia’s dominant victory over England the full treatment.
How good are the Diamonds? Where do the Roses go now, with no margin for error in Pool A? A thrilling Jamaica vs New Zealand contest has Chloe wanting another hour of it, while Scotland vs Wales says everything about a Thistles team that are going places.
We also debate South Africa’s tactical diversity as they make it two wins from two and flex the full extent of their squad.
Wins for Malawi and Uganda round off the day, and for the She Cranes it means they lead the way early in Pool B.
Monday brings the first rest day, but not for us as we’ll be on the ground in Glasgow for all the latest.
So stay across our social channels for instant reaction throughout the tournament, and they’ll be a review in your feeds every day throughout the tournament.

It’s Day 1 in Glasgow and Paul and Chloe have Lucy Goodman for company for the duration of the Commonwealth Games.
The first day of competition brought wins for all the big hitters, but what did we learn from wins for England, NZ and the defending champions Australia?
A near-flawless display from the Diamonds is scrutinised, while both New Zealand and Scotland will take plenty from their game that kicked off the tournament.
We dive into a win for the Roses that brought all 12 players on court, but did it pose more questions than answers ahead of their Super Sunday showdown with Australia?
Game of the Day goes to Wales against Uganda, but it’s a sign of the Feathers ambitious that they’ll be disappointed to have suffered defeat against the world-ranked 6th She Cranes.
We’ll take a quick look ahead to Sunday's action too, as well as England v Australia, games between Wales and Scotland, and New Zealand and Jamaica could shape the rest of the group stage.
A reminder to follow us on our socials for updates through the day. Stacy Marinkovich, Noeline Taurua, Eleanor Cardwell and Uneeq Palavi are just a few of the names who spoke to us in Glasgow.

In a Commonwealth Games audio-only bonus treat, Chloe sits down with Jamaican superstar Latanya Wilson in person for an extended conversation.
The talk begins with reflecting on Latanya’s electric season with the Adelaide Thunderbirds before pivoting to how it all started.
A recommendation from fellow Jamaican Stacian Facey opened the door to netball overseas, and Latanya never looked back. But it wasn’t all smooth sailing in the beginning, with a crunch end-of-season conversation proving to be a critical turning point. 
Latanya opens up about her upbringing, its challenges and why it drives her every day to be the best that she can be both on and off the court.
And with Jamaica in action in Glasgow, Latanya re-lives some of their recent highs and lows, and why they should not be underestimated.

In our final Big Interview special ahead of the Commonwealth Games, Chloe is joined by Scotland Head Coach and Director of Performance, Kath Tetley.
In this wide-ranging conversation, Kath begins by charting her coaching origin story.
Having always had one foot in the netball operations space, Tetley found herself brushing up with some of the greats of the game, not knowing, years later, she would be tapping them for coaching advice.
After manifesting the Thistles role in 2024, Tetley saw the job opening - and with some encouragement - upped sticks from Australia to Scotland to get stuck in.
Tetley shares some unique insights into her coaching style, as well as some of the terminology that has caught her out.
She also reveals some of Scotland’s ambitions and where they hope to finish at Glasgow 2026.

It’s a high-alert podcast special following the news that Nat Metcalf is out of England’s Commonwealth Games squad after sustaining a calf injury in training.
Head Coach Anna Stembridge joins us to discuss Metcalf’s departure, the decision to select Ella Clark as her replacement, and where that now leaves England. 
Chloe is then joined by Lucy to give immediate reaction and thoughts before they head up to Glasgow to enter the fray. 
Enjoy.
