Comments: With her unconventional playing style on court and her gregarious personality off it, the Mo’onia Gerrard flair has made an instant impact on the international netball scene. Known for her great agility, speed, strength and elevation and outstanding one-on-one defence, at only 180cm Gerrard can challenge the tallest of shooters. After leading the Adelaide Thunderbirds to premiership glory in 2010, Gerrard backed up her form on the international stage and continues to present as a formidable opponent who always provides a spark in defence for the Diamonds. |
