Vice Captain of the Melbourne Vixens, Em Mannix has become one of the leagues most feared defenders.
Emily Mannix, a St Leondard's local, made her Vixens debut in 2015, and impressed despite having limited opportunities.
Mannix and her Vixens partner in defence, Jo Weston, are no strangers, playing much of their state underage netball together. In a demonstration of the pair's connection on court, the two also performed like a well oiled machine in the defensive circle for Australia in the international test series.
