The Melissa Walker/Netball Fiji saga has taken another twist with Netball Fiji today saying that they will decide at the Council Meeting on Saturday, whether to pay Walker or not.
It has been revealed by Netball Fiji Secretary Patricia Rokoua, that money owed to Walker, is not the $40,000 that she's claiming but money owed before she was terminated after the South Africa Tour in July.
Rokoua adds this will all be discussed in their next Council meeting on Saturday.
Rokoua adds that the public should understand that Netball Fiji terminated Walker's contract straight after the South Africa Tour and they had nothing to do with her or her pay after this.
Meanwhile, Government intervened and re-instated Walker.
Netball Fiji then agreed to have her coach the team to the Pacific Mini Games in the Cook Islands, but then decided she was not allowed to travel at the 11th hour as she was pregnant and so feared for her safety.
However, Walker said she has no knowledge of the Council meeting this weekend, as there has been no correspondence with the Netball Fiji Executives, adding there is no need for the Council to decide on the money that should be paid to her.
