ADELAIDE July 14 AAP - Goal attack Erin Bell set a record when she claimed a third trans-Tasman netball league title on Sunday but she says this one is a little more precious

The 26-year-old goal attack was named Most Valuable Player after sparking the Adelaide Thunderbirds to their 50-48 victory over the Queensland Firebirds in the grand final

Bell previously won championship medals with the NSW Swifts in 2008 and the Thunderbirds in 2010 but treasured this one even more because of the team's special bond

"I have enjoyed my time here in Adelaide and this culture is something I want to stay in," said Bell.
"This one is really special because we've been building these values and I haven't felt that unity and bond in a team before, so it's nice to go all the way."
Bell was the Thunderbirds' go-to-girl in the circle, as goal shooter Carla Borrego was tightly held by Queensland captain Laura Geitz.
With nine seconds to go and after missing a crucial goal underneath the ring, she managed to shoot from long range to give the Thunderbirds a two-goal buffer and secure the win for the home side.
"When you're a little kid you always think about having the final shot in a grand final, but I'm just so glad it wasn't a draw and that was the goal the game was hanging on and I'm just glad it went in," Bell said.
"I didn't think we had it until that very last second and I'm shocked to get an MVP because there were seven great players out there and we got the victory because of all seven standing up."
