WITH the Australia Development Squad set to fly out to New Zealand for a round robin competition from October 5-9, we take a look at a possible line-up for the clashes. Coached by Julie Fitzgerald the side will take on New Zealand and England with the program aimed at developing the next generation of players.

GS: Cara Koenen

The Sunshine Coast goal shooter has had a breakout season with her accuracy and dominance under the post highly impressive. Koenen worked her way into the season and made her presence felt with her silky movement and ability to shake up her play from strong baseline drives to holds in the circle. She can shoot from range and is often unfazed by the physical one on one marking in the goal circle.

GA: Kiera Austin

Although she did not get a wealth of game time throughout the Suncorp Super Netball season with the GIANTS, Austin proved her worth making an immediate impact when injected. She is a smooth mover across the court, able to work the angles and feed the ball into the circle with ease while also not afraid to back herself from distance. The goal attack is composed under pressure and is relatively clean with ball in hand, able to release a pass into space and provide a constant option in attack. She has a big bag of tricks with her cuts and drives a real feature of her game play.

WA: Jemma Mi Mi

The Queensland speedster could help to spark the attacking end with her dynamic movement, vision into the circle and netball nous to release well weighted passes. Mi Mi knows when to go and when to hold back while her work at the centre pass is imperative in bringing the ball down the court.

C: Kate Moloney

The Melbourne Vixens captain is all heart and will provide plenty of encouragement for the young side while also filled with plenty of skill. Moloney can run all day credit to her high endurance and desperation to fulfil her role to the best of her ability. She can have an impact anywhere on the court but it is her placement in the attacking third that is hard to stop with her vision and ball placement often on song. Her defensive pressure is equally as impressive able to pick up loose balls in the middle third while also covering the drive of her opponent to force turnovers.

WD: Gabi Simpson

Simpson is no stranger to the big stage and will provide plenty of experience down in the defensive end given her time both on the international and national stage. The wing defence oozes class and composure able to think her way through pressure and deliver bullet like passes to players across the court. Her work through transition is second to none often re-offering on the transverse line and resetting play to allow the attacks to reposition. She has an uncanny ability to sense the moment and do the unthinkable to take a game changing intercept or timely deflection when needed.

GD: Kim Jenner

In a trying season for the Queensland Firebirds, Jenner has stood tall and backed herself, hunting down the cross court balls and using her speed to create a contest. The 21-year-old defender has plenty of x-factor able to sight and read the ball coming down the court while her hands over pressure has been proven to cause headaches. She has athleticism to boot and has the skill to shut down a player with her smothering pressure.

GK: Emily Mannix

Unlucky to have missed out on Diamonds selection, Mannix is all class able to win games off her own back with her timing and vision to take big intercepts. She is renowned for her defensive pressure able to nullify any easy passes down the court and create doubt in the feeders minds with her towering presence. She is deceptively quick given her height while her strength enables her to gobble up any missed shots.
