Lynx couldn't guard a concrete gnome at present! Hoycard should be wearing a Fire singlet as she isn’t helping the Lynx tonight. Maley rushing & forcing terrible shots!

Nice shooting is pointless without defence

Fun game to watch as an independent viewer.

I feel like that was both the best and worst of Perth on show at different stages. Can't see them being consistent enough to challenge for the championship, but a fun (and at times frustrating) team to watch!

Townsville with an impressive start to the season given the lack of continuity from last year's roster. Cox has taken to the league like a duck to water, and Abby Ellis looking like a Steph Reid 2.0 in the making! Not sure what's going on with Cooke- carrying an injury or just not familiar enough with the team concepts yet to be given big minutes?

Cox very impressive, Perth will be kicking themselves with some poor rebounding in the first half and bad free throw shooting. Could tell how much missing Atwell affected their 4th qtr offense, they win that comfortably with her out there for some balance.

Very entertaining game as a neutral but like said above not much defense to report other then small patches. Some very impressive young talent for Tville positive to see for our sports future.

What's going on with Atwell, do we know? I haven't seen anything more specific than "knee injury".

Great game, Perth more talented at every position but the fire still got it done, so credit goes to Seebohm.

Woods gets better n better every year. Froling/Cox also fantastic in this game.
Atwell will give Perth a boost and make them one of the favourites for the title.

The app gives the final score as 80-80 !

entertaining game between Flyers & United (should be Supercats)

Yeh good game. Geelong getting it done by commitee.

yep, would be great to see them get their first win

Have the Flyers recruited Bernie Harrower to help? It's a shame they couldn’t find someone currently coaching to sit on their bench. I’m actually surprised to see such a loaded team under perform twice to start the season too. They have a great roster and some established talent. Wonder why the fumble to start the year off.

Bluey move on you showing your age, Supercats in the past, Geelong United the future.

Yeah I know Movingscreen, but Supercats is better

Tonight's game 9now livestream not working for anyone else?

Yet again this 9Now crap fails.
Worked for about a minute at the start and now just get the silly little wheel.
Checked all of the other channels on 9Now and they work so not my connection.
Just sent a tersely worded email which will fall on deaf ears I expect.

I can't get onto the game on 9Now either. Frustrating!

Eventually worked after several refreshes and then the scoreboard went missing for much of the second quarter. Ammo stuff!!

The silver lining was the Spirit girls with a comprehensive win.
On the road minus Griffin and Wehrung they won 3.5 quarters and all 9 who travelled got on the scoresheet with minutes not overly high for the vets ahead of another game on Sunday.

I'm impressed with how the Lynx have started the season.
Aari McDonald was so integral to everything we did last season, and we were a completely different team during that period she missed with injury.

It's early days obviously and teams will learn ways to slow us down as the season progresses, but so far we've done a solid job of keeping the offence flowing without Aari, and with our #1 weapon still out injured.

Great to see 6ers import Martin & Harrell out watching the Lightning Vs Lynx game last night. Martin was especially accommodating to all requests for autographs & photos but also engaging in small talk with young fans when approached. Unfortunately Harrell was the complete opposite & actually told all young fans that dared to approach him that their engagement 'needed to be quick', he was aloof & looked anything but approachable which was really disappointing & left many young fans shaking their heads after their engagement with Harrell!

What a dick.

I replied to this in another thread about Trez and Jarell.

I was at the game and they were being approached when buying food. That just shows poor judgement from a fans perspective.

When my daughter asked for a picture, they were both polite and friendly enough.

They also posed with a bunch of my daughters' friends too.

And a quick interaction is probably fair enough as they were there to watch a game. They weren’t there in any official capacity.

Trez posted on his insta about it too.

Thanks for clarifying.

Rhino - my Son didn't approach Trez whilst he was getting food, his body language towards young fans was absolutely terrible & screamed I couldn’t give a stuff. I also don’t get why he would be wearing dark sunglasses inside a fully enclosed stadium, that smacks of arrogance & I’m a VIP type personality!

Many people (including adults) seem to think they have some kind of right as fans to engage with players (and whatever other "public figures") in whatever situation they choose.
It's great when the players are accommodating to this, but when they aren't, maybe that's a good lesson about boundaries & respect as well.

If it's an event specifically organised to allow fan-player interaction then I'd expect the players to do the right thing as that is built into their job.
But when they're on their own time then use some judgement and take a hint. Maybe Montrezl needs to wear noise-cancelling headphones as well next time.

SamCro - sorry you had a bad experience. I can only report my experience and that of the people around me at the time.

As for the glasses, as my teen son would say.....that's just his drip.

Got to late in the second quarter of the Bendigo-Geelong game and it's just completely frozen and won't let me play anything. I can still skip forward and get freeze frames from later in the game, it just won't play.

Doesn't seem like I'm missing much though.

And now Kayo is telling me playback is unavailable when I try to watch tonight's game. This is ridiculous.
