2023 ANZ Premiership: Team of the Week – Round 9
A HOST of in-form ANZ Premiership players form Round 9’s ANZ Premiership Team of the Week, giving a sign into what might be to come for the Silver Ferns at the World Cup later this year.
There is also a Tactical feel to this week’s team, with about a third of the squad coming from the Tactix. It must also be noted that in a tweak to the format this week, only the games that were the reason the player got into the Team of the Week will be highlighted. So although the player may have played multiple games over a weekend, if they were not all Team of the Week worthy performances, they will not all get a mention.
