The LexisNexis Dragons are heating up this season, securing their third win with a nail-biting 65-64 victory over Nottingham Forest in the Netball Super League. It was a game that had fans on the edge of their seats, showcasing the fierce rivalry between these two teams. Georgia Rowe led the charge for the Dragons, sinking an impressive 35 goals and helping her side complete a season double over Forest—following their earlier away win in round six. On the other side, Rolene Streutker put up a valiant effort with 31 goals for Forest, but it wasn't enough to stop the fourth-placed team from slipping to defeat.

The action didn't stop there. London Mavericks, sitting just behind in fifth place, closed the gap on Forest to six points with a solid 63-60 win over Leeds Rhinos. George Inger and Emily Andrew were the stars for the Mavericks, scoring 27 and 22 goals respectively, bouncing back from last week's loss to Manchester Thunder. Paige Reed topped the charts for Rhinos with 20 goals, but her side remains stuck in seventh place with just one win all season.

Looking ahead, the league is buzzing with anticipation. Second-placed London Pulse will take on leaders Loughborough Lightning on Sunday, while Manchester Thunder faces bottom-dwelling Birmingham Panthers on Monday—both matches tipping off at 18:00 BST.
