Heroes on the frontline👨🚒
On #InternationalFirefightersDay 🚒 we celebrate and thank the heroes who have served and protected their communities, such as Para athletics thrower @CamCrombie 🇦🇺
@ScottsTakes89 @WNBL@SouthsideFlyers@UCCapitals I get that Perth were on the road for a long time, but Bendigo should be dirty about that. It wasn't their fault they should miss out on a W --> they were ready to play. Precedent needed to be set then and there, then the STH v CAPS ruling is unfortunate, but par for the course.
@MattNew42@mickmcivor@NeedtoKnowASX@WNBL@SouthsideFlyers@UCCapitals So, play and definitely lose on Thursday and tire out the 7 fit players they have, OR give everyone a few days rest and prep, and have a better chance of knocking off Adelaide 2 days later?
A tough season, but why should the team that CAN suit-up get penalised? Bendigo=robbed.
@MattNew42@mickmcivor@NeedtoKnowASX@WNBL@SouthsideFlyers@UCCapitals My understanding is it is between the two teams and the league. Can't speak for Caps' weigh-in, but Southside did play Caps a couple weeks back, depleted, and got spanked. Maybe Southside are conceding defeat without risking injury so they can back up full strength v ADL on Sat?
@WNBL@SouthsideFlyers@UCCapitals Unfortunate for both teams, but I'm looking forward to a full-strength @SouthsideFlyers line-up. Get well girls!
So, are we just gonna let the whole @PerthLynx Vs @BendigoSpirit thing go through to the keeper? It's not too late. I get my partner 'apology flowers' all the time...
#WNBL20 CHAMPIONS.
The UC Capitals have gone back-to-back, winning their ninth WNBL Championship at AIS Arena after defeating the Southside Flyers 71-68.
Thank you, Canberra – we love this city. #GoBIG
@vmainard@Perth_Luuuc@rpjward@WNBL 'Frolling hit her in the face' is quite a long bow to draw. Two people - one person reached out with their open hand & slapped/pushed someone in the face, the other didn't. Cunningham had a choice - she chose to strike Frolling in the face. You tell me who is at fault.. It's over
So thrilled for us, the team, the staff, the club, the supporters. We are in the @WNBL finals! We can't give up. We've got to be determined and focused on our next games. It'll be a hard battle but together we can do wonderful things. Love this team ❤️
@UCCapitals 💙🖤🧢🙏🏾
@TheMoveSport@TheCaseBNE@WNBL This is it. It's not about being a @UCCapitals fan or a @MelbBoomers fan. It's a respect for the @WNBL , the elite players on EVERY team, the coaches, the volunteers & young ones that come along to every game & love these girls! Admit fault & improve next time - too much to ask?
@vmainard@Perth_Luuuc@rpjward@WNBL Everyone makes mistakes, this is nothing new, but would this stand in other professional codes? Repeated below-par behavior getting swept under the rug...
If a @UCCapitals player behaved like this as often as she does, I would gladly cancel my personal sponsorship immediately.
@vmainard@Perth_Luuuc@rpjward A team that winge? All of this isn't personal, but I also think you're confusing 'a team that winge' for fans of women's sport that believe that the @wnbl and the 'independent panel' have failed in their responsibility to 1) protect players; and 2) uphold a standard of behaviour
