Karin Burger on what it's like playing for Dame Noeline Taurua.
Karin is a New Zealand netball legend - since making her Silver Ferns debut in 2018 she has played over 70 tests in the black dress, and is the captain of the team at the Commonwealth Games!
Making this moment extra special for Karin is the heartbreak of 4 years ago where she was forced to miss the Comm Games due to injury.
This episode originally came out in 2023, but so much has changed, I thought it's time to re-share it with the world!
