show notes
It’s Day 1 in Glasgow and Paul and Chloe have Lucy Goodman for company for the duration of the Commonwealth Games.
The first day of competition brought wins for all the big hitters, but what did we learn from wins for England, NZ and the defending champions Australia?
A near-flawless display from the Diamonds is scrutinised, while both New Zealand and Scotland will take plenty from their game that kicked off the tournament.
We dive into a win for the Roses that brought all 12 players on court, but did it pose more questions than answers ahead of their Super Sunday showdown with Australia?
Game of the Day goes to Wales against Uganda, but it’s a sign of the Feathers ambitious that they’ll be disappointed to have suffered defeat against the world-ranked 6th She Cranes.
We’ll take a quick look ahead to Sunday's action too, as well as England v Australia, games between Wales and Scotland, and New Zealand and Jamaica could shape the rest of the group stage.
A reminder to follow us on our socials for updates through the day. Stacy Marinkovich, Noeline Taurua, Eleanor Cardwell and Uneeq Palavi are just a few of the names who spoke to us in Glasgow.
