Maria Folau to start at goal shoot as Silver Ferns chase 14-goal win to clinch Cup

Silver Ferns Maria Folau

Silver Ferns Head Coach, Noeline Taurua will keep Maria Folau at goal shoot as the Silver Ferns chase what once seemed like an impossible Constellation Cup win in the fourth test against the Diamonds in Wellington tomorrow night.

The Ferns’ drought‑busting 55‑44 win in Hamilton means the New Zealanders need to beat Australia by 14 goals or more to win the Constellation Cup for the first time since 2012.

Folau starred in the win, shooting at 98 per cent at goal shoot, and Taurua said she would stay at the position in Wellington.

The Silver Ferns take on the Australia Diamonds at 4pm tomorrow in Wellington in their final Constellation Cup test.
