Magpies head west for first Monday night fixture in SSN history to take on the West Coast Fever.

Round 12 is do or die for the Magpies as we’re chasing a big win to secure our finals hopes for 2019. Last week saw a shocking draw against the Adelaide Thunderbirds at Priceline Stadium, which sees us remain only four points outside the top four.
Nat Medhurst will return to Perth and play at RAC Arena for the first time since moving to the Magpies at the conclusion of the 2018 SSN season, and when she steps out on court she will match current record holder Susan Petitt for national league games, receiving her 232nd cap.
Last time we met the Fever in round 5 at Bendigo Stadium, we suffered a two point loss, so the team are looking to turn the tables around on the Fever home ground and secure the win, and all four bonus points.
Key Match Ups
The game will be the league’s first Monday night fixture as they trial a series of different fixtures. So strap yourselves on for one major battle! Catch the action live on Telstra TV or via the Netball Live App.
