    Uneeq Palavi, also known as 'Pav' to fans, stole the headlines and hearts whilst playing her first full-time contract at Melbourne Mavericks.

    At the end of the season the club announced she was leaving.

    The Tongan goal-shooter has not yet officially announced her next club but there are rumours she could be on the way to the Netball Super League to secure more court time.

    Netball - England 68-25 Tonga

    Another strong 15 minutes from England, 15 more to go.

    It finishes 24-11 for the quarter, Tonga's best of the game so far.

    The Roses need another 22 goals for their highest total at the Commonwealth Games.

    Close call for a courtside photographer as a Tonga player chases a loose ball as it bounces off court and clatters into one of the hoardings.

    It tips but just about rights itself rather than falling on the photographer behind.

    Some lovely finishing from Tonga's Uneeq Palavi. She's a class act.

    Tonga have already beaten their goals tally from the second quarter but England aren't slowing down either.

    Ella Clark is on at goal-attack and Eleanor Cardwell is back on at goal-shooter after being given the second quarter off.

    Scotland win their first medal of the day, edging out New Zealand 18-16 in an angst-ridden bronze-medal match at the SEC. Safe to say the crowd in here enjoyed that one…

    And it will be followed by - at worst - silver in the women’s wheelchair event later on Wednesday. Praise be.

    Netball - England 51-15 Tonga

    A reminder that an England win today - as looks highly likely at this stage - would put them level on points with South Africa and Australia at the top of Pool A.

    It will be between those three for the semi-finals spots and the Roses could do with Australia beating South Africa tonight.

    That would make it a straight shootout tomorrow evening, whereas a South Africa win would bring points average into play.

    Third quarter under way and England start the second half very quickly.

    Three goals in the first 45 seconds.

    No doubt that was an impressive half from England... but if we're being nit-picky, which you need to be to win gold medals, they'll definitely be looking to increase their goal percentage of 85% in the second half.

    For reference, Australia achieved 95% when they played Tonga in their opening match.

    Out the back of the media centre at the Hydro, the Scotland players are mingling with their friends and family after running Jamaica oh so close earlier. There are kids running around and people taking photos. It's a lovely sight.

    The first half comes to an end and victory is all but assured for the Roses.

    Sasha Glasgow scored 18 goals, Eleanor Cardwell had 17 and Liv Tchine has scored 10 off the bench.

    It's now a question of finding a balance between trying to push the score up to boost the point average and making sure everyone is well rested for a crucial match against South Africa tomorrow.

    It's been a better couple of minutes from Tonga and their fans at the Hydro are making themselves heard.

    England's intensity has dropped a little with the half-time break just a few seconds away.

    England's record for most goals in a single game at the Commonwealth Games is 89.

    They're almost halfway to that total with a little under five minutes of the first half remaining.

    Changes made but the intent and defensive intensity from England has stayed the same.

    This is a ruthless display from the Roses.

    England have made a few changes for the second quarter with Olivia Tchine among those introduced.

    The goal-shooter missed with a tentative first shot but has found her rhythm since, scoring with her next three.

    Netball - England 27-8 Tonga

    Dominant stuff from England and Sasha Glasgow adds one at the buzzer to make it a 19-goal lead.

    The world number three side were expected to win well today but, as I've mentioned, the need to boost their point average means England will be going all out from beginning to end here.

    Scotland's Tom Wright crashed out of the competition when failing to complete a lift in the clean and jerk.

    He has been talking to TNT Sports: "I let it get to my head on the first attempt where I thought I stabilised and got the green signal but they overturned it.

    "I should have stuck with it a bit more, have a bit more self belief which will come with time.

    "I've been in the sport for under two years, I'm happy where I'm at and there's a lot more to do, definitely."
