WNBL Rankings, Tips 12: The Spirit is willing
CAN our Team of the Week, Bendigo, make a run at the WNBL playoffs? At 6-8 the Spirit have two games in hand on Sydney (8-8) and if pundits rate the Flames a top-four chance, then why not Bendigo? Southside and Perth are two teams in the hunt so this round is huge for Kennedy Kereama's crew.
WNBL TotW11: A most spirited and overdue debut
THEY did it. Yes, it took until Round 11 of the WNBL season and while they have threatened a couple of times, our Team of the Week makes its first appearance of the 2023-24 season after showing a clean pair of heels to opponents.
WNBL Rd11 Wrap: Lynx suffer, Flames alive
DID you miss our daily WNBL game-by-game summaries during Round 11? Not to worry. You can find them all on the site or just take a look at our WNBL Wrap blog here. Twin road losses by Perth may really sting in the Lynx's run home without star import Aari McDonald while Sydney's 1-1 round keeps it very much in the Final Four hunt.
Perth keen to make a point: WNBL
DO not be surprised if Perth challenges the result against Sydney with the WNBL after a basket ruled as a 3-pointer wrongly was adjusted to a two by scoretable officials, a point mistakenly then added to the Flames' score, with that error fixed later but no additional point added back to the Lynx's score.
Loz winds back clock and Boomers bound: WNBL
VICTORIAN clubs Southside Flyers and Melbourne Boomers have asserted themselves in no uncertain manner over preseason championship favourite Sydney and league-leading Townsville respectively, the "GOAT", Lauren Jackson running into the best shooting form of her WNBL return.
Brad&Boti: Purple rain is falling finely
IT WAS mighty tough for former Sydney Kings captain and my Brad&Boti podcast colleague Brad Rosen last night, watching as 12 parachutists in purple uniforms bailed from the kamikaze plane being piloted in the cockpit by Mahmoud Abdelfattah somewhere over Adelaide.
Caps in hand, find the Lynx kinks: WNBL
UNI of CANBERRA did it again last night, this time collecting Perth's scalp and unsettling the Lynx's hopes of clinging onto a top four spot, Alex Sharp slicing the visitors to ribbons with a monster 25-point, 19-rebound tour de force. How she is absent from the 20-player Opals squad for next month's Olympic qualifiers in Brazil is a mystery.
First quarters fire up spirits: WNBL
HOW important are good starts in the first quarter? Last night's WNBL matches had openers which could not have been of greater contrast yet both determined exactly how those matches would play out. Abbey Wehrung paced Bendigo to a big win over Adelaide and Sami Whitcomb powered Townsville past Melbourne.
WNBL Rankings, Tips 11: Deja vu? Nah. Same old, same old

DON'T be alarmed if you miss Melbourne hosting WNBL leader Townsville tonight to help tip off Round 11. They play again at the same venue on Saturday. Nothing new there. Townsville played Perth on December 31 in Townsville. Then again at the same venue on January 3. Yes, we believe we have located the culprit behind the scheduling.
WNBL TotW10: Flying high and 'flame on'
DEFENDING WNBL champion and league-leading Townsville was on fire in Round 10 as it saw off Perth's challenge at home, then hit the road to stifle the spirit out of Bendigo and stake its claim for our Team of the Week accolade. Sadly, it just wasn't quite enough.
