Manchester Thunder boss Karen Greig on why her Vitality Netball Superleague champions are the best squad she's ever had

Manchester Thunder boss Karen Greig lauded a near-perfect season as her side went unbeaten to win their first Vitality Netball Superleague title since 2019. Thunder made it 22 wins on the trot with 60-53 win over Loughborough Lightning in the Grand Final to lift the trophy in a dominant performance at London’s Copper Box Arena.

It capped a season that will live long in the memory for Greig and her players as they neared netball perfection. “I don’t think you can get any closer than that,” said Greig. “A lot of our girls will probably turn around and say this is the best squad we’ve ever had.

“The unitedness of the team has been phenomenal, the girls have got each other’s backs. They get on, on and off the court, which for me is a culture thing and you see transfer from off to on: you couldn’t ask for more.”
