WNBL Round 9

Surely this league needs to move away from Basketball Australia.

Yes, Keane suited up for the Boomers today (didn't play on Friday night)
She has 10 points (5/12) & 4 boards in 25 min off the bench.

The main thing that's wrong is that this is a very strong league this season and the Boomers are just a tad lacking in the roster department in the front court.

Seriously, the Sami show is the most entertaining basketball being played in Perth right now, so I too hope some people tune in and give it a chance.
It also helps that the first game is vs Dandenong Rangers. Should be a top notch contest.
(The less said about the 2nd contest the better though ...)

Is there anything Wildcats can't do (except maintain a healthy PG and C)? Super news, let's hope it goes well.

Fantastic news about the Lynx getting games on 7!! Hopefully it will lead to not only more Perth games being show but games across the league played live on 7 as well. Kudos to the Lynx and channel 7!

I wonder the same thing, wayne, because she wasn't playing that badly, and they don't appear to have replaced her with anyone better.
Aside from Adelaide it's a very even comp this season. There's no shame in being 3-7. They came within 3 points of Townsville, Dandenong & Perth - a pretty handy trio of opponents. They're really not that far off the mark IMO, and on paper there's certainly some talent on the roster.

I'm glad they have brought in someone though. Giving up on the season would not have been the right approach IMO.

Scratching my head a bit with that signing, to be honest - she is listed as a forward everywhere that I can find, but at the same time she looks like she has a fairly strong body, so hopefully she can be like Bygate and play as an undersized center. A true center would be nice but I guess at this time of the season you've got to take what's available.

I don't think they could really play their development players to replace Black, most of their development girls are smaller, if I recall correctly. I'd much rather the development girls got to play when the coaches think they're ready to do so as opposed to being thrown in the deep end because there are no other players.

I'm just hoping they can turn their season around, perhaps playoffs may be a stretch this season, but getting some wins would be nice.

you would think if they were going to replace Chante Black they would at least get some height , thats what they lack, she looks to be a similar player to Kelly Bowen.

never heard of this one they have replaced Chante with, shes only 6ft .so not exactly a big , though probably bigger than the rest of the boomers

seems a bit strange for sure

Strange... Bit of a waste I reckon, something off court happen with Chante?

Melbourne Boomers have signed their Chante Black replacement.

"Canadian Kalisha Keane will arrive in Australia in time to play for the Boomers this weekend."

Given that we have a nice guy thread, perhaps a not so nice guy- this isn't a thread to heckle the players' ability or credibility- and we need to understand that if a team has just lost the player may not have been as friendly

add some names..............
