In netball – does the name, Donnell Wallam ring a bell?
She made an immediate impact for the Australian Diamonds, scoring a game-winning goal in a fairytale debut against England, after refusing to wear a mining sponsor’s logo?
Well the star goal shooter wasn’t picked in the Diamonds for the Quad Series starting in South Africa this weekend, raising eyebrows in some quarters.
“I’m surprised at Wallam being left out,” former Australian goal shooter Caitlin Bassett said on Fox. “I think she’s the X-factor.”
Ummm we’ll keep you posted.
