After several weeks of difficulties in getting games played, a busy schedule this week started on Wednesday with Darcee Garbin and Perth firing away in the second half in a 102-73 win over Canberra. On Thursday, Rennia Davis was able to make her professional debut, but Sydney lost to Adelaide 77-52. Southside had to have both of their games postponed. That left one game on Friday with Townsville winning 77-67 at Bendigo. It looked like they were running out of steam early against Cayla George and Melbourne with a quick turnaround on Friday, but Lauren Nicholson helped them win again, this time 68-66. Sunday started with Canberra’s 94-60 win over Bendigo. The last game of the round saw Marina Mabrey catch fire for Perth to fuel a comeback 86-81 win over Sydney, which was got scoring from Lauren Mansfield and Rennia Davis.
