A stunning comeback from West Coast Fever star Jhaniele Fowler-Nembhard trumped her fellow Jamaican Shimona Jok to snare the goal shooter’s spot in a superstar collection of goalers in Code Netball’s team of the week.
Fowler-Nembhard led Fever to their first victory of the year as she claimed MVP honours in her first game of the season after personal heartache.
The five-time Super Netball player of the year finished her return match with 59 goals from 60 attempts.
Jok went close after an MVP showing herself in her 100th national league match in the first half of the split round on Easter Sunday, while Swifts superstar Grace Nweke notched 48 goals, to give her a three-match average of just under 50.
Diamonds shooter Cara Koenen had her best game of the season to help Sunshine Coast Lightning snap the Queensland Firebirds’ unbeaten start to the year in a stellar celebration of her 100th game.
Koenen snared MVP honours in the Queensland derby on Saturday, finishing with 41 points from 39-of-44 shooting, including two successful super shots that swished through the net to the roar of the crowd.
After making just one super shot attempt last year, Koenen finished with two-from-two from long range.
