Another blow for Netball New Zealand in the wake of their unresolved coaching saga with Dame Noeline Taurua.
Silver Ferns selector Gail Parata has resigned after becoming frustrated at the way the governing body has treated the World Cup-winning mentor - and claimed Taurua hadn't been properly protected.
Parata said that many in the coaching community beyond netball have been left disheartened and disillusioned.
Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explained further.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Darcy Watergrave sports talk hoosters with me, Hello, Dust.
Speaker 3 (00:08):
It sounds like the plot's thittening more there than it
is of Netball New Zealand. Or they'll be going neck
and neck right now, wouldn't they. Jeez.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
One is a lot of facts coming out and the
other one is no facts at all. But now Gail
Parazza has resigned.
Speaker 3 (00:20):
Yes, selectors just going I can't do this. If you
jump on a Facebook page and take away look at
what she's written around the way, it's all falling apart,
and then she's thought that the coaches in New Zealand.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
Should be freaked out.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
This is not the way to run a netball We
all know that it's pretty obvious, even though we don't
know the final detail. I think we can all say,
hand on heart, this has been managed so poorly by
Netball New Zealand and now girl's going I don't want
to be involved in this. I've been left in a
really difficult situation. I don't need to be here.
Speaker 5 (00:51):
This is manifestly unfair.
Speaker 3 (00:52):
I am going Mark Foster, former a Z Championship coach,
he's going to join me on the program. Are this
evening up after seven o'clock? She's not going to toss
the coin now at the start of the Constellation Cup
as a way of saying, I'm with you, Gail Prata,
I think this is insane and slowly but surely everything's
piling up against Netball New Zealand and from what I
(01:15):
can gather, see again, I can't say any of this
on air officially because I don't.
Speaker 5 (01:19):
Know it's heir say, but the situation that what.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Started was basically a tiny spark, It's all it was,
and it could have been extinguished reasonably fast, but.
Speaker 5 (01:29):
It's just accelerated.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
She says. Who would step into a role now knowing
that one complaint, one misrepresentation, or one moment taken out
of context could end their career. Is that basically what
you're hearing?
Speaker 3 (01:41):
Yeah, this is it and it could have been dealt
with easily with two mature people sitting there having conversation.
Maybe you misconstrued that, maybe I didn't understand. You know,
when you're talking to people sometimes they go why did
you say that?
Speaker 5 (01:53):
And you go say, what, Oh wow.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
I know what that's about.
Speaker 6 (01:56):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I didn't, And isn't that every relationship serious?
Speaker 3 (02:00):
And then unfortunately that spark, it's got a bit more,
it's got a bit of it's gone further, and now
there's a full fledged forest fire, and yeah, it's getting worse.
So we'll talk to Maggie about that later on in
the piece, they're all sighting on with No, there's no
surprise there because I.
Speaker 6 (02:17):
Think we could.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
We can all see what's happened. Yeah, yeah, sucks to
be those players at some staff. Now, what's your watcher
beef with Mike Costing?
Speaker 5 (02:27):
Well, I don't have a beef with Mike Hosking at all.
I was listening to me.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
I was listening to Mike Hosking, and the great Mike Hosking.
Without him, we're all toasted. And he was talking with
Jason Pine Andrew Saville about the bad first time over
the weekend, and I heard them say this.
Speaker 6 (02:44):
There is no way you could tell me that Payne
was going to win that before the race started. You
could say is he in with the chance, yes, is
he a good driver yes? Has he got some form yes?
But given what happens on a rainy day, you could
not possibly have known wow.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
Oh yeah, but you can.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Look at the quality of the drivers and what happens
the understand how good Pain and Tander are because they've
been there, done that. That's a sixth one Tander. I'm
just going to take it back to your program, which
I appeared on last Thursday.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
Take a listen. I like this option. It's seven dollars.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
It's Matt Pain, who's been tremendous all throughout the year,
with Garth Tander, who's got a great record there, and that's.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
His co driver. So it's seven dollars. I think that
represents reasonably good coin.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Oh look, absolutely does it. Apology?
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Am I going to lose my job over this? I
know you can't mess with the hosk, right, and you
know you need to think? Well, I mean I am
essentially to everybody's consent. He said nobody could predict that,
So maybe he's just calling me nobody.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Though hard to know whether you were, whether you genuinely
thought Matt Pain was going to win, or we're just
enticed by the odds.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Raten Bet responsibly like that. I said, look at all
these other favorites. This here is fantastic.
Speaker 5 (04:03):
These guys against you put your money where you make
there's a.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Chance exactly what my daughter said to me when I
heard that in the car on Monday, and I mean,
I haven't got any money.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
She goes, what's the point? Be quiet? Be quiet? I
think my daughter's siding with the HOSK.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
I step back.
Speaker 6 (04:17):
I lose.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
I'm particularly sorry.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
I just had to get in there and say we.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
Well, actually, am I sounding peasy or what not?
Speaker 6 (04:25):
At all?
Speaker 4 (04:25):
No, Darcy, it's good to talk to you, Okay, looking
forward to your show, Darcy water Grave Sports Talalk Hoast.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
