'One for the ages': 2023 Super Netball grand final

"My goodness, that must sting"; Swifts into decider
Aaron and Erin try to work out how the Swifts got over the top of the Fever in the Super Netball preliminary final, do a deep dive into how big of an influence the super shot is actually having on results and select some of the best grand final performances of all-time.
“Keeper rewards & big-game players”: Super Netball finals
Aaron and Erin look at perfect power 5 shooting, analyse Courtney Bruce’s last-quarter “keeper rewards” against the Vixens and name the best finals performers over time. And Aaron gives us all the stats that matter ahead of the preliminary final between the Swifts and Fever.
“Wilson worship and dead rubbers”: Rd14 of Super Netball
Aaron confirms Erin’s “feel” that Thunderbird Latanya Wilson had her best game of Super Netball ever, we explore the “dead rubber” effect and analyse the statistical anomaly that helped the Giants beat the finals-bound Vixens.
“Manna from defensive heaven”: Rd13 of Super Netball
After Courtney Bruce and Sunday Aryang’s stunning effort against the Giants, Erin & Aaron dig into the best joint defensive efforts of all-time. We also look at Helen Housby’s career-best form and Aaron delivers a mega Shot in the Dark for the last home and away round.
“Distance darlings & scoring variability”: Rd12 of Super Netball
Erin & Aaron take a look at obstruction penalties, calculate teams’ round-to-round scoring variability and explain how Donnell Wallam has overtaken Jhaniele Fowler. And Aaron gets a Shot in the Dark correct … at last!
"Deadly Donnell & Fever’s one-goal demon”: Rd11 of Super Netball
Erin & Aaron dig into Fever’s one-goal problem, check where Donnell Wallam’s 24-goal quarter ranks & take a look at the most penalised teams.
“From elite to awful”; Super Netball's record Rd10
Erin & Aaron put alllll of Rd10's records into context, explain Amy Parmenter’s statistical edge over Ash Brazill and assess “amazing Mannix”. And Aaron looks at the correlation between midcourt turnovers and winning games.
“When is a miss not a miss?”; New Super Netball shooting metric
With Rd9 run and won, Erin & Aaron look at perfect feeding, scoring highs and lows, the closeness of the season and the “Maddy effect”. Aaron also devises a new shooting metric for Super Netball, dubbed “effective shooting percentage”.
"Hard yakka & the power of possession"; Rd8 of Super Netball
Erin & Aaron dig into the ‘spooky’ possession & gain stats in that Vixens/Fever clash, rate Kiera Austin’s game & look at how often the more-penalised side wins. And Aaron uses the “Monte Carlo” method to work out the bottom four sides’ chances of playing finals.
