Former Silver Fern Laura Langman has expressed shock and disappointment over the shock decision to stand down coach Dame Noeline Taurua.

Netball New Zealand yesterday announced that Taurua was being stood down for the series against South Africa, starting in 10 days.

Langman doesn't approve of this move - and says this isn't a direction we should want sport to be going.

"Netball used to be a household-celebrated sport - and at the moment, we're just not doing ourselves any favours at all."
