Guys
If you want to see some sport that isn't predicatable, boring or full of sissies, watch the ANZ Championship netball Grand Final next Sunday at 2:30pm. Adelaide Thunderbirds vs Melbourne Phoenix.
Netball is supposed to be a non-contact sport, but "striving" is allowed and boy is it competitive.
Plus players that look like they belong on a catwalk wearing skirts that don't even cover their butts doesn't hurt. Players like Geva Mentor the Adelaide GK and English international that has been a model at times (I think it was for Victoria's Secret), Emily Beaton the Adelaide WA (absolute stunner), Natalie Medhurst (stunner - looks like Uma Thurman), Nat von Bertouch (Adelaide captain and gorgeous), Julie Corletto (Melbourne GD stunner). Throw in other beauties like Monia Gerrard (sister of Aussie rugby player), Jo Sutton (sister of South Sydney's John Sutton), both rough and aggressive players and the brilliant talent of the Aussie Captain Sharelle McMahon (Melbourne GA) and watching a game is a pleasure.
I might sound biased, but watch the game and you'll see. I've followed League, Basketball and Netball all my life, and Netball is the only game that has improved all the way. Others have got boring.

Must agree - Beach Volleyball is nice to watch.
I'll 'fess up too - I played mixed Netball for 20 years. Started at about 18 years old as basketball training (netball teaches you about passing into space/gap). Ended up winning a State title one year and |

A better way to meet girls is to talk with a lisp and become a hair dresser....To use the excuse that its a great sport to meet girls is just covering up the fact that you like hair straightners and trying on skinny leg girl jeans!

I played a lot of netball in highschool and I gotta agree with Byron. If you walked up to a chick and planted your face in her boobs you'd get expelled but you play netball and it's like they're trying to whack you around the face with them. Plus it's a f
