But with no Ovens and Murray season at the moment due to COVID-19 the Myrtleford shooter has found herself spending much more time in the city.

Broz has spent the last few seasons commuting from Melbourne with partner and Saints footballer Brody Riccardi each weekend.

While she admits the travel can be tiring at times, she wouldn't have it any other way.

"You never dread the drive, it's always worth it," Broz said.

"There's no league like the Ovens and Murray down in Melbourne.

"We never have to do the trip on our own, there's quite a few that travel for football, so it's always very social.

"The club is definitely one of a kind."

Broz, who was born and bred in Myrtleford, said not being able to travel home to see family and friends at this time has been hard.

Last year the gun shooter had the opportunity to work alongside younger sister Eden in the Saints' goals, with the pair racking up over 630 goals between them.

"We really enjoyed it," Broz said.

"It's nice to be able to play with a family member.

"You can talk to them a bit differently and not take it to heart."

The Saints had been gearing up to take to the court under new coach Tina Way for the first time.

With a fresh netball approach and coming off the back of success on the football field in 2019, Broz said it was shaping up to be an exciting season for the club.

"Last year was very exciting for us and I think that's why everyone's a bit disappointed not playing this year because we were on such a roll," she said.

"The hype around the club is really good at the moment, both for netball and football.

"It's very exciting to have Tina, she has a lot of experience and she's been great so far with the pre-season.

"We've started fresh, which I think is what we needed.

"We were all so keen to get into season 2020."

Broz is responsible for conducting her own fitness training and plays in a Thursday night netball competition in Melbourne during the season.

Despite netball taking a hit due to the pandemic, Broz said she's been lucky enough to continue working as a health information manager at St Vincent's Private Hospital.

She hopes to be able to visit her family and get back out on the netball court as soon as possible.

"I'm missing all of my friends and family up in Myrtleford," she said.

"It has been nice just to stop I think for everyone.

"At the same time, we're all missing it very much and missing seeing everybody."
