Patience isnotavirtue readily associated with the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Magic, but one which has a growing significance in the run to the ANZ Cham- pionship netball play-offs. The old Magic dynamism has been seen sparingly in recent outings but coach Noeline Taurua believes a change in style was necessary for the team to be serious contenders at the business end of the season. While not as pleasing on the eye and with the sceptics pouring cold water on Colourplus Magic’s recent form, patience and ball retention have now become the point of focus. ‘‘We are playing a totally different type of game from what we are used to and what we are now trying to introduce is taking time,’’ Taurua says. ‘‘It is also giving us a different look which people FINAL NOTICE are probably viewing as a bit of a negative and wondering what is happening. But there are positives coming out of this and we are making strides in the new game plan.’’ FINAL INSPECTION There was little to enthuse over in a messy and bruising clash with the Northern Mystics last week, Tuesday 26th May but Taurua is quick to point out the end result was a 3.00 - 4.00pm 15-goal win and not all matches are going to be classic spectacles.
