Replacing club stalwart Jacqui Delaney, Medhurst put many of the world's best defenders to task with her accuracy, speed, and elusive nature.

In 2017 the new Super Netball league was formed and Medhurst signed a three-year deal with the Fever that was supposed to have resulted in her staying at the club until the end of the 2019 season.

[9] Medhurst went on to represent Australia at the 2005 World Youth Championships, in Fort Lauderdale Florida, where they finished in third place.

She continued to develop as a player at open level, and in 2007 she finally made her debut with the Australia national netball team against Jamaica on 8 July 2007.

She calmly converted all three of her attempts at goal, with Australia winning the final 42–38, making Medhurst a world champion.

She cemented her position in the Australian line-up over time, and was named in the national team's 2014 Commonwealth Games side where she gold.
