Welcome
Fraser Williams and Jake Santa Maria are reporting live.
Backstroke pair move on
Henry Allan and Se-Bom Lee have both qualified in the men’s 200m backstroke, each finishing second in their respective heat.
Garbin outscores England at the half
WA’s Sophie Garbin looks unstoppable, outscoring England by herself as the Diamonds lead 35-24 at half time.
England came out the gates hot, but Australia punished costly mistakes and are making little of their own.
Garbin has been automatic in front of the net, scoring 25 goals off 26 attempts at 96 per cent efficiency. Her direct opponent looked lost at time, having no answer for the lob with Garbin extending and winning the matchup comfortably in the first half.
Kiera Austin has been flying around the court, getting the defensive tip in the centre and hustling back to reap the benefits with a score.
Goalkeeper Courtney Bruce showed frustration with early calls but finally had one go her way in the dying minutes of the second quarter, and let her opponent know.
The experienced Jamie-Lee Price was classy as always, helping facilitate transition alongside Kate Moloney.
Suraci loses on points
Inside the ropes, Canberra boxer Monique Suraci lost her bout via decision against Engalnd’s Lauren Mackie.
The women’s 54kg content was closely judged, but Mackie had the slight edge winning the favour of 2-3 from the judges.
Diamonds up at QT
The Diamonds lead England 18-11 at the first break, Sophie Garbin has shot a game high 11 goals.
Williamson rides his gold medal high
They saved the best to last after the dolphins had to wait until the last heat in the 50m men’s breastroke.
Riding the high of his gold medal win from this morning, Sam Williamson delivered a powerful performance to win the heat with a qualifying high of 26.75.
While Bailey Lello came in at sixth for the heat, but his 28.06 was just enough qualify for the semi finals.
Aussies land the early punch
WA pair Courtney Price and Sohpie Garbin have helped land early blows.
Price is all over England’s attack, limiting them to four goals early while Commonwealth Games greeny Garbin sunk seven goals in the opening minutes.
Hayman and Cottrell wrap up big bowls win
They win the second set 16-0 to move temporarily to the top of their group with four wins and one loss.
Second-placed Northern Ireland will take on third-placed Guernsey, which will have big ramifications for the group.
Gold medal match preview?
The highly anticipated bout between the Diamonds and the England netball side is underway.
Australia are the defending champions from Birmingham in 2022, while England won gold in 2018.
They are the two clear favourites which has built this to be a must watch bout.
‘Whoopsies’ says Jack after slow qualifying
Jack ended up as the ninth fastest qualifier after taking second in her heat.
“It was a bit more 200-style pacing, so I might have taken it a bit too easy,” she tells 7.
“I definitely have lived more in the moment here than I probably have ever in a competition, so I can actually feel it right now.
“This morning I woke up and thought I need a lot more caffeine, but I didn’t take it so I can get a good rest between now and the semi.”

O’Callaghan makes it three from three
Much like Harris, Mollie made that looked effortless, taking the second-fastest time of 54.37.
It’s one and two for the Aussies heading into the semis, while Jack also safely made it through despite a below-par swim.
Australia locked out the podium in the men’s 400m; could the women repeat that feat on Tuesday morning?
