150 not out: Peta Toeava set to hit a massive milestone ahead of round four

Round four of the ANZ Netball Premiership is shaping up to be a weekend of massive milestones and even bigger stakes.

All eyes are on Trusts Arena this Saturday at 4pm where the Gosweetspot Mystics host the VIP Frames & Trusses Tactix.

It is a "homecoming" match with a special edge. Mystics stalwart and fan favourite Peta Toeava is set to make her 150th appearance.

Known for her "no-look" passes and incredible speed, Toeava remains the engine room of the Mystics' attack, already racking up 119 feeds this season.

The Tactix arrive in Auckland as the team to beat.

They are the only unbeaten side left in the competition, built on a rock-solid defence that has frustrated every opponent so far.

But the Mystics are still yet to find their rhythm.

Midcourt stars Tayla Earle and Katie Teao are back from injury, giving head coach Tia Winikeri the stability she needs to challenge the league leaders.

While the Mystics sit lower on the ladder than they’d like, their form in recent years prove they are a much more dangerous threat than the points suggest.

Steel vs Pulse

Later on Saturday at 7pm, the Southern Steel return home to Invercargill to face Te Wānanga o Raukawa Pulse.

The Steel are riding high after a massive upset win over the Mystics last week and will be looking to repeat their 54-53 thriller against the Pulse from earlier this season.

The Pulse are desperate for a win after a string of heartbreakingly close games.

Defenders Parris Mason and Australian import Holly Comyns have a big job ahead of them: stopping the Steel’s super shot threats, Georgia Heffernan and Aaliyah Dunn.

Stars vs Magic

On Sunday at 4pm, the Northern Stars host the Avis Magic at Pulman Arena.

It is a big day for Silver Ferns shooter Amelia Walmsley, who will play her 50th ANZ Premiership match in front of her home fans.

The Stars are chasing back-to-back wins for the first time this year, while the winless Magic are still searching for their first points.

Magic shooter Kate Taylor, currently sitting at 81 per cent accuracy, will need to be near-perfect to keep her side in the hunt.
