Perfect Fowler-Nembhard inspires Fever in Super Netball

A Jhaniele Fowler-Nembhard-led West Coast Fever have run riot in an 82-65 smashing of the Queensland Firebirds at RAC Arena.

The Fever started hot and extended their lead at every break as the struggling visitors proved no match in the round eight match on Sunday.

Jamaican superstar Fowler-Nembhard was a flawless powerhouse, shooting 68 goals without missing.

“I have to give it first to the girls, they fed well today and we stuck to the process, even though we had some lows,” Fowler-Nembhar told Fox Sports.

“But other than that it was a good performance.

“It was not good enough (early in the second quarter) because we had a good lead, and we allowed them to come back.

“I cannot always stand under the post, the girls need a little bit of help sometimes.”

Fowler-Nembhard has made a seamless transition back into the Fever set-up amid grief.

The 35-year-old was originally due to miss the entire season through pregnancy, announced in December, but suffered a miscarriage in January.

Fever move to 6-2 this season, sitting only behind the undefeated NSW Swifts.

It sets up a blockbuster showdown with the Swifts in Sydney next Saturday night.

The Swifts thrashed West Coast 67-49 in round one, but the Fever were without Fowler-Nembhard in that match.

The Firebirds’ season looks shot after slumping to 2-6, sitting only above the 1-7 Giants.
