Kilistina Moata'aneOtago midfielder Kilistina Moata'ane has retained her spot among the country's elite. The 21-year-old was named in the Black Ferns 29-player contracted squad yesterday. Also in the squad are four newly contracted players in Bay of Plenty's Luka Connor and Karli Faneva, Counties Manukau's Arihiana Marino-Tauhinu and Auckland's Natahlia Moors. He said the newly contracted players had impressed in the Farah Palmer Cup last year, as well as in their determination to keep improving. Being a contracted player did not guarantee a spot in the Black Ferns squad.
