Southside on the fly as stars sparkle

In: WNBL — Thursday, 29 Feb, 2024

SOUTHSIDE veteran and Australian basketball's G.O.A.T. Lauren Jackson turned back the clock to lead her team to a 1-0 best-of-three WNBL semi final series lead over Melbourne, but unsung import Jasmine Dickey was the X-factor the Boomers did not calculate, scoring 16 points.

WNBL semi, when size really does matter

In: WNBL — Wednesday, 28 Feb, 2024

THERE is a very strong likelihood Melbourne Boomers beating Southside Flyers for the Michele Timms Trophy will be the club's only comfort as the best-of-three WNBL semi final series unfolds from tonight, Penina Davidson (calf injury) a massive out for the Purple.

WNBL TotW15: Missing Lynx late return

In: WNBL — Monday, 26 Feb, 2024

THE Perth Lynx deserve a great deal of credit for bursting back into the WNBL Final Four, right at the season's eleventh hour and in so doing, not only ensured 2023-24 would have the same semi finalists as 2022-23, but they would close the regular season as our final Team of the Week.

WE succeeded! If at first you don't succeed, try, try again ... so goes the old saying, so Brad Rosen and I persisted and yes, we landed a big scoop with Sydney Kings assistant NBL coach and soon-to-be Phoenix Mercury WNBA assistant GM, Fleur McIntyre for this week's Brad&Boti podcast.

WNBL Rankings, Tips Rd15: It's 'all or nothing' time

In: WNBL — Wednesday, 21 Feb, 2024

OMGRarely if ever has a WNBL regular season come down to so many permutations, from which club will finish top, to which of four teams battling for two spots will make it into the post-season, to which player from MVP finalists Sami Whitcomb, Jordin Canada, Lauren Nicholson, Isobel Borlase or Jade Melbourne will claim the coveted award? 


WNBL TotW14: Spirited revival continues unabated

In: WNBL — Tuesday, 20 Feb, 2024

OUR WNBL Team of the Week for Round 14, which some might argue also could easily have been our TotW for Round 13, was the stand-out across a torrid and very meaningful series of matches, where, ultimately, some international preseason Spirit truly paid off as the fight for the Four intensified.

What a finish coming up! WNBL

In: WNBL — Sunday, 18 Feb, 2024

FIRST place is not settled, the Final Four is not settled and only Adelaide Lightning and Canberra Capitals are out of the playoff picture. But both very clearly can influence the final outcome and play spoilers after another torrid round left six teams in the post-season hunt and Kelsey Griffin pacing a surging Bendigo.
