After 10 days and eight full matches, the Australian Diamonds have reclaimed the World Cup for this proud country. The sisters-in-arms have lived their culture for months in preparation for what they are going to bring home to this country when they get on the planes from Cape Town. I'm incredibly proud. Like netball tragics around the country, I was up at 2 am to watch them defeat the old enemy, England, and didn't they do a good job! It would be remiss of me not to mention a three-goal win against the Sunshine Girls, Jamaica. It was an incredible game of netball. They are incredible sportspeople, and it's an incredible sport. I'm so, so proud. Their business is finished. Matildas, we're with you till it's done. Good luck tonight!
