Their rousing preliminary final victory means the Suncorp Super Netball decider will be an all-NSW climax with the Sydney Swifts this Saturday, August 28, from 2.30pm at Nissan Arena.
Despite a last quarter fightback, the Fever were unable to secure a grand final berth.
Giant Sam Poolman silenced the world’s best shooter Jhaniele Fowler and midcourters Maddie Hay, Jamie-Lee Price and Amy Parmenter soared over their opponents.
The left-handed shooting combination of Jo Harten (37 goals) and 19-year-old Sophie Dwyer (24 goals) shared the scoring load but more importantly showed amazing composure.
“It’s been a really tough season and to have an all-NSW grand final after what our state’s been through is incredible,” Poolman said.
