Australia's top netball stars who have gone some two months without pay are currently in a meeting to discuss a fresh proposal from the sport's governing body.<\/p>\n
Netball Australia has proposed an 11 per cent pay rise, as well as back pay from October 1 \u2013 the day after the previous collective player agreement expired on September 30.<\/p>\n
The expiry of the agreement has meant players are out of contract, have little job security and have not been paid in the eight weeks since.<\/p>\n
The Australian Netball Players Association and players are currently meeting to discuss the proposal.<\/p>\n
"This offer we have put forward would allow them to be paid immediately, while we continue negotiations with ANPA on building a financial model for the league," NA boss Kelly Ryan said.<\/p>\n
