Bec Bulley and Firebirds part ways after player revolt

Must read

Queensland Firebirds and their head coach Bec Bulley have agreed to part ways, effective immediately, less than halfway into her four-year contract.

ABC Sport can exclusively reveal that Bulley’s axing is the result of mutiny within the Firebirds playing group, after the athletes approached the Australian Netball Players’ Association (ANPA) with concerns about the team’s direction.

The three-time premiers are projected to miss finals for a sixth season running and are in wooden spoon contention for a second year in a row.
