Full time: AUS 65-42
The Diamonds run out comfortable winners on a day where we saw 3 debutantes for Australia and 1 for South Africa. Jamie-Lee Price and Alice Teague-Neeld were outstanding today. Once again, there were promising signs for SA but just too many errors.
#AUSvRSA
3/4 time: AUS 49-32
Austin 8/10 (80%)
Koenen 2/4 (50%)
Streutker 10/14 (71%)
Ngubane 3/4 (75%)
That is the first quarter that South Africa has won in this series. They were much tidier in attack. Not so Cara Koenen for the Diamonds, unfortunately with 3 turnovers.
#AUSvRSA
It's a test debut for Lucy Austin and Ash Ervin!!!
#AUSvRSA
1/2 time: AUS 39-20
Garbin 29/31 (94%)
Horjus 10/11 (91%)
van der Berg 15/17 (88%)
Ngubane 1/2 (50%)
A relentless Diamonds pushed out the margin in Q2. Alice Teague-Neeld had 16 assists in 25 minutes before making way for Mundy. SA just 53% goals from centre passes!
#AUSvRSA
Juanita van Tonder came on for her test debut for South Africa, then just 30 seconds later, Hannah Mundy made her debut for the Diamonds! AUS 35-20
#AUSvRSA
Georgie Horjus has recorded her first miss in international netball after 23 straight goals. Nevertheless, the Diamonds power on. AUS 26-13
#AUSvRSA
Teams are in for the final test of the series in Adelaide. Some potential debuts in this game, and for Australia, a very new-looking starting lineup.
Will the Diamonds wrap up a 3-0 series victory, or can the Proteas record their first-ever win over Australia?
The third #AUSvRSA test in Adelaide will be a full circle moment for Michelle den Dekker. 30 years after Australia’s most successful netball captain led her side to the 1995 World Cup victory, celebrating that success in her hometown feels pretty special.

Apologies. There was an error in the South African shooting stats we posted last night. So here is the correct version...
#AUSvRSA
💎 Dominant Diamonds! Australia had a 67–40 win over the South African Proteas in Wollongong, to seal the series victory with one game to spare. This was South Africa's lowest score vs Australia since 2018.

#AUSvRSA
Full time: AUS 67-40
A comprehensive win for Australia on a night when just nothing went right for South Africa. For the Diamonds, Jo Weston was POTM with 4 gains and 4 pickups, while Georgie Horjus impressed in the second half. Horjus and Garbin shot 35/35!
#AUSvRSA
3/4 time: AUS 50-30
Garbin 13/13 (100%)
Horjus 5/5 (100%)
Streutker 7/8 (88%)
Ngubane 1/1 (100%)
Several changes made at 1/2 time. The combination of Georgie Horjus and Sophie Garbin provided a spark for Australia as they dominated the quarter. SA with 28 turnovers!
#AUSvRSA
1/2 time: AUS 32-22
A bit of a frustrating game to watch. There's no flow as both sides continue to make errors. The Diamonds won the second quarter 14-11 to extend their lead, but they still probably wouldn't be overly pleased with their performance.
#AUSvRSA
1/4 time: AUS 18-11
Koenen 9/12 (75%)
Austin 9/12 (75%)
van der Berg 10/11 (91%)
Breedt 1/3 (33%)
Diamonds on top after a rather frantic opening quarter with lots of errors. Shooting accuracy a problem for Australia, while South Africa has given up 10 turnovers!
#AUSvRSA
Here are the line-ups for Test 2 of the series in Wollongong. What do you think of these starting 7s?
#AUSvRSA
Test 1 done and dusted! The Diamonds and Proteas lit up Bendigo in a cracking opener to the series. Go to our Facebook page to see some more great images.

SA within touching distance of a single figure loss to Aussies. Maybe it can get closer in the next two tests. Nicola Smith had an awesome first half on Garbin, think SA had tired legs by the end and couldn't keep up their intensity. Good to see Watson get a rest for once 😅 #Netball #AUSvRSA
#AUSvRSA
Stats from tonight's first test in Bendigo which saw the Diamonds take a 1-0 lead in the series. The first, third, and fourth quarters were all very competitive, but the damage was done in a 20-12 second quarter.
#AUSvRSA
The Australian Diamonds come away with an 11-goal win over a gallant South African Proteas in the first test in Bendigo.

Australia comes away with an comfortable 11-goal win, with POTM Courtney Bruce having 8 gains. But there was plenty to like about South Africa's performance. This was the closest margin between the two teams since the 2019 World Cup semi final.
#AUSvRSA
Courtney Bruce has starred in defence for Australia with 7 gains already. The biggest roar was reserved for Alice Teague-Neeld who came on late in the 2nd quarter to make her international debut. A few too many errors creeping into SA's game in that 2nd Q.
#AUSvRSA
1/2 time: AUS 34-26
Garbin 22/26 (85%)
Austin 12/14 (86%)
van der Berg 16/19 (84%)
Maseko 10/14 (71%)
A great first quarter (14-14) for South Africa as they took it right up to Australia. But the Diamonds started to assert some authority in the second quarter (20-12)
#AUSvRSA
Teams are in for the first test of the series in Bendigo. It's 11 months since the Diamonds last played a test, but it's just 6 days since the Proteas went down to New Zealand by just one goal in a thriller.
Here is our preview of the #AUSvRSA Test Series that begins in Bendigo tomorrow. It's the Diamonds' first international netball of the year, while the Proteas have already had a busy 2025.
