WNBL Round 7

Double dribble I'm ripping mine up too, she's an embarrassment, and I think she's a two year signing as well
Not a club I want to belong too

It certainly should prevent her being eligible for MVP, who wants behaviour like what she exhibits as being acknowledged as MVP material, absolute joke

Canberra imposed the Ardossi suspension not the WNBL to uphold their values and culture of their club!

MVP honours will be interesting, I'd say there's a clear top 4: Batkovic, Cambage, Taylor and Williams. Then next tier is the likes of Bishop, St.Blicavs, Whitcomb.

Watch that become the penalty,

"We didn't include her in the TOTW, are you not entertained?"

WNBL Team of the Week:
Micaela Cocks
Tessa Lavey
Courtney Williams
Asia Taylor
Suzy Batkovic

re: WNBL Round 7
LOL Someone here couldn't get a date with Liz it seems. The move was a punk move but this dude is over the top.

maybe go check out the other Liz thread....seems many didnt get dates
fact is shes an embarrassment

Courtney Williams gets Player of the Week honours

Yeah I think it goes without saying that any predictions are contingent on health.
Fire & Boomers looking very good atm. Damn shame that round 3 was the last time we see the Fire on TV (until the playoffs). Big test for the Boomers this Thursday heading up to Townsville.
I feel like Sydney should be fine too.

Perth have a fairly tough remaining draw, and Adelaide's form is shakey, so yeah the Rangers shouldn't be writing off their playoff hopes just yet. Lavey finally stood up this round. If Mijovic joins in as well then they're still a potent team.

btw how does the ladder on WNBL.com.au manage to be so wrong all the time??

Perth were unconvincing today I thought. A full strength Sydney may well have got it done.
Snelly will hopefully be back for next game. She was a precautionary out, and clearly a very late decision.
Flames had stages of picking us apart nicely, but interrupted with periods of sloppiness that would have been a lot fewer with another vet out there.
Mind you, Perth missed a lot of good looks from outside too. A few more of those drop and it's over earlier. But I remain unconvinced, especially up front.
Happy to scrap a win though. I'll take it!

re: WNBL Round 7
Liz is the best player in the league.

haha.....ok Mum

shes big thats about it, plenty of better players than her with far better attitudes to go with it

Laveys best game since, ever...

Tough for Sydney if Snell is out but Perth definitely passed a test this round having to travel to the other side of the country and back.

What did Cambage do? How come an elite player have these issues?

Well done Dandenong. Looked like an ok match from both sides. Lavey helping out on the scorings. Seems she and Palau are seeing game time next to each other.

Sydney trailing by three to Williams. Gosh she's good.

Snell no minutes v Lynx so far - injured pre-game?

Cambage is an embarrassment. The league
Won’t do anything about controlling her ways
It’s a shame when boomers are all about family
But they won’t discipline her.

"Cambage needs putting on a chain, she's a dam disgrace to the league, but fits right in with Boomers"

They not put your daughter on pay roll or?""

joker in every pack....dont have any daughters retard,just happen to think her behavior and attitude is atrocious, brings nothing to the sport,
that move she did on Bass showed her true character, immature and irresponsible, her jeering at the crowd, directly at the BA officials who were there watching when she didn't like the foul called a couple of weeks ago, absolutely disgraceful.....you dont see others behaving like this , as I said needs to be put on a chain, and a short one at that till she grows up and starts acting like a professional

Agreed Luuc. Perth needs to win a few more away games against strong opponents.

Today will be interesting because they should be more traveled and tired than Sydney, who had no problem winning in Perth in Rd 1.

I'm still waiting for Perth to play some quality teams away before labelling us an indicator of anything significant.
Recent signs have been promising of course, but winning at home, and beating a Griffin-less, Laney-less, Spirit in Bendigo, don't reveal too much.

Today will be a better test. Looking forward to this one.

Cambage needs putting on a chain, she's a dam disgrace to the league, but fits right in with Boomers

Looked bad when I watched it live, looks worse in slow mo.

Not good, Liz. Not good at all.

If the league had any guts it would suspend Cambage. But she's a big name, so they'll do nothing

Ha ha. I'm trying to recall where I heard she's been drafted to AFLW??

That's AFLW's Monique Conti Who Also Plays in the WNBL to you and me.

Hooper's form is coinciding with Caps form.

I'm having a few bucks on Conti for league MVP. She's doing all the interviews and pressers, so I figure she must be the frontrunner. Good to see though.

Townsville v Cambage for the grand final series, Sydney to get close. Adelaide or Perth fighting for the last semi spot.

Kinda sad the season doesn't lend itself to bad teams catching up. It's more than half way over after this round.

A nightmare game from Hooper - 1/12 and 4 turnovers

A lazy 23 and 14 for Batkovic

Wow, Townsville just steamrolling the competition right now. 3 huge wins in a row.

Screen is good but this guy is struggling. My favourite was when he yelled 'Good shot!' for a miss

Someone finally told this guy that there's only one 'b' in Magbegor.

Screen is good value IMO.

Fire applying the blow torch to Adelaide again. Their depth is the difference in this one.

"Shame Foxtel couldn't put a couple of commentators on a plane (if necesary) and TV the Adel v Town game."

Does Jenni Screen live in Adelaide? If so it looks like they've put her on a plane, just so we can get yet another Boomers game.

Yeh Perth could be scary if Whitcomb gets going. I definitely favour them to overtake Adelaide

I don't feel like they're a realistic chance anymore. They were not especially deep anyway, and even less so now, especially in the bigs dept.

Anyone still give Dandy a chance? Or is it a 5 team race already?

Perth Lynx should virtually go undefeated from here on.

A good smashing is just what we needed to allow our starters to rest. Lynx up 29 with one quarter to play.

Yeah Adelaide Townsville is match of the round. Perth Sydney could be close with Sydney being fresh compared to travelling Perth.

Spirit, Capitals winning would be an upset. Though how well Rangers deal with their depth now is a guess

Shame Foxtel couldn't put a couple of commentators on a plane (if necesary) and TV the Adel v Town game. They would already have equipment set up for 36ers v Kings game straight after.

Hey all

Thought we could do with a thread to have some general chit chat, banter and welcome our League 2 players. We can also answer any questions for newcomers as well.

It's going to be interesting to see if our teams with Number 1 draft picks risk going for Mills or Bogut and then possibly losing them before the season even starts.

Feel free to also come up with a 'Team Name' for your squad like my 'Chelsea Daggers'.

Draft kicks off in 10 days from now.
