Silver Ferns restore pride

11:37 pm on 29 August 2009

The New Zealand netballers knocked out some of the dents in their pride with a 46-41 win in an entertaining and tightly contested third test in Auckland after losing to the World Seven in Wellington and Rotorua .

The World Seven led 5-1 early in the first quarter before the Silver Ferns began putting together some smart attacking moves to lead 14-11 going into the second quarter.

Although the Ferns trailed by up to five through the middle stages they produced some spectacular attacking play and coach Ruth Aitken wants more.
