Enjoying watching Eziyoda Magbedor playing, at the moment.
Pretty to watch at both ends.
Mansfield > heal by a mile.
Should be the opals 2nd or 3rd string pg.
Shyla with 29pts, still not enough to get the win.
Lol, nowhere near it. third pg deep on bench maybe.
The d will go up another level in international play.

Now, I'm watching the Brittney Sykes spectacular.
Sykes is killing it! Kelly Wilson has been great too, how she never made an Opals side is beyond me.
Maley not on the opals list either and leading league in rebounds
Alex Bunton is endorsing something called Boob Armour
Maddie Garrick looks like a very skilful, talented player although she is averaging 24% from the field and 20% from 3 on decent volume and high minutes.
With Lei Mitchell also off to a slow start it must make it difficult to stay in games.
Drop Mitchell to backup pg and start Wilson.
Lavey-Mitchell
Garrick-Mclean-Stratford
Wilson-Goulding-Ananiev
Maley-Skinner
Mckay-Boag-Dunlop
Terrible depth, could make up a better bench from nbl1 players
Williams
Antoniadou
Paalvast
Taia
Hopoate
Or more from Coe like other teams or other 03/04 born talent about
Borlase
Puoch
Sydney have Deeble 03 and Evans 03
Canberra have Melbourne 02, Potter 02 and Swain 03
Melbourne have Dunn 03, Heal 04, Burrows 04
Southside have Loughridge 04, (Puoch 04 - from dandenong...?)
Adelaide have Brazel 04, (Borlase 04 - from Adelaide…?)
Bendigo have Goodchild 03 and Ananiev 04
Perth have Jacobs 04
Townsville have 0

And? this proves the point that the best get poached to Canberra. The others were either going home to their state or making a million phone calls to try and get a DP spot
Poached is a bit silly. They've been elevated. Was Josh Giddey poached?

You are comparing apples and pears....what does that even mean?
You have 12 girls and the best 3 happen to end up at the club that the COE coach is assistant at, clearly you are close to the source.
You can't poach from a lower league is the point. The Capitals use their proximity to the COE to recruit talented players, I’m not sure what your problem is with that? Veal is no longer a Caps AC by the way.
Mansfield definitely played a better overall game than Heal. Heal just scored more so her stats are flattering. I thought her decision making, particularly in the first half, was poor. And defensively she isn't great.
Not sure aus has a better passer in thewomens game than mansfield
Steph Reid showing Flyers why they should've played her 2 seasons ago
Seebohm schooling a team with twice the budget at the moment.
Wallace and Nicholson, not a good day for them.
"Seebohm schooling a team with twice the budget at the moment."
what a massive choke
Ohea looks disinterested alot. Could her time be up with the opals?
Ohea just frustrated with the soft calls I think. The reffing was awful IMO. Nicholson definitely looks out of sorts I agree.
Very clear Shane has no eye for talent, he's now released dungee who replaced odometer and is now bringing in rennia davis. Is he finding a replacement import for watts now that she has torn her acl?
May not be his eye for talent as much as the way he treats players is well known, this makes it hard to recruit
Gave as much time to dungee as chicago gave heal
I'll help heal out...

"So glad to be out of that situation and home. I couldn't be more happy!"
Unrelated but I saw Nakkasoglu got jipped at her Turkish club.
HRd to believe the salaries for a bench player now in the wnbl.

Heck of a backcourt we've got here that's for sure.
Curious to see if there's even a season before handing anyone the trophy though.
