Fri: PER v SEQ;
Sat: DAN v UCC; BEN v MEL;
Sun: SYD v TSV; MEL v UCC; ADE v SEQ.
The Stars have the classic western road double. Caps also on the road for back-to-back games in Victoria. Melbourne visit Bendigo and return home to host UCC.

Laney was pretty good, 17pts 9 rebounds and 7 assists
Hammertime = having 2 opals and putting them in a time share situation for court time.
Also recruiting another wing shooter as a import replacement that he thought was an inside player.

That's what you get when you hire a men's coach who is out of touch with the women's game.
His mate is also the Opals coach so he can bring his daughter through into Opals contention over the next few years.

Wasn't able to make it to the Lynx game, but it sounds like the solid win I was hoping for. We're doing a great job this season of winning the games we "should" win, and it has been the difference between us being in the pack and being at the top.
Pretty cool to see 3 players from the same team all flirting with triple-doubles.
Laney 17, 9 & 7
Lavey 10, 8 & 8
Louella 8 & 9 with 7 blocks
Mijovic again big off the bench with 17 points & 5 boards in 18 minutes.
Sami another typical Sami games. 24 points & 4 steals.
I see that Bec Allen has lost her starting spot, which is not a bad thing. Really tough to come back after a serious injury like that. She'll find her touch again but until she does it probably takes the pressure off to come off the bench.

Mijovic will be starting in front of Burton soon, the way she's playing.
I look forward to someone asking @ShaneHeal the same question he asked Jordair Jett, "Many people including myself wonder whether [they] sacked the right import."

Melbourne winning over Bendigo without Tess. Would have to be a bit of an upset win.
Little known secret. Melbourne play better without Madgen.
Maddie Garrick was outstanding. 7 x 3's great for the kid

Correction Melbourne play better without Tess at the point. She is a 2 and the team would be 10 times better if she played there
Is Bec Cole expected back? Does she still play for the Boomers?

Given the timing of her injury I wasn't expecting her back this season.
Was at the Mel v Cam game today. Bec Cole was on the team bench. Think she is about 6 months into rehab for her knee operation. Brittany Smart played the Pt today.

Great weekend for the Boomers, winning both to stay in touch with the main bunch. Smart just 1 assist off a triple double for them today. Way to step up when given a starting spot!
Caps came close in both games. Just a matter of time for them. Hopefully Perth aren't the team they break the duck against when the Caps come over here on Friday.
Boxscore looks ugly for the Lightning today. SEQ were vulnerable coming off the Perth loss and losing Jarry, but they must have showed some much needed fight to get this one. Jordan Hooper hasn't wasted time in making an impact.
