"Former Perth captain Tessa Lavey was today ruled out of the match due to concussion. Lavey had been in strong form for the Rangers and coach Larissa Anderson spoke of her importance when discussing the match earlier this week. Lavey played out Saturday’s game against Bendigo but felt ill throughout the week and has been diagnosed with post-concussion syndrome. She will miss tonight’s game and Saturday’s match against Canberra. Lavey had become a key scorer after Sara Blicavs suffered a season ending knee injury. Being without the pair of Australian Opals will leave the team significantly weaker against the rampaging Lynx."

Dandenong odohral posledne 2 zapasy v siedmych hrackach aj s dnes zranenou Lavey (cize pre dnesok 6 hracok, zbytok nestoji za rec.

Riadna sezona konci poslednym decembrovym dnom, cize boje o play off (prva stvorka vrcholia). Dandenong tym ze vyhral posledne dva zapasy tak este nadej ma, ale Perth aj ked je prvy tak istotu tiez nema, kedze hra z poslednych 6 zapasov (okrem dnesneho) az 5x proti teamom prvej 4ky resp. 5ky.

Perth je najofenzivnejsie muzstvo WNBL, hraju up tempo styl, pred sezonou podpisali duo z Melbourne Boomers, kapitanku Kunek a Thompson, atleticke typy, velmi rychle pri svojej vyske. V prvej desiatke top strelkyn sutaze ma Perth hned 3 strelkyne, rozohravacku Courtney Williams, prisla pred sezonou z WNBA kde Connecticut dotiahla ku konecnemu tretiemu miestu. Tuto sezonu priemer 20.5 bodu na zapas. Po anabaze v Seattle Storm (WNBA) sa vratila do Perthu pred sezonou Sami Whitcomb, kapitanka, druha naj strelkyna teamu v prvej desiatke celkove, tretou je spominana Kunek. Pod kosom je skusena Natalie Burton doplnena mladou Kaylou Standish, roster je lepsi ako minulu sezonu ked skoncili na tretom celkovom mieste.

Pre dnesok ziadne hlasene absencie u Perthu oma pustil perie Perth len jedinykrat a to hned v prvom kole proti Sydney, odvtedy maju doma 7 vyhier v rade, z ktorych 5 skoncili pokrytim dnesneho hcp, jedna vyhra bola o 10 a posledny proti silnemu Townsville o 5.

Ako spominal a co je dolezite, riadna cast konci poslednym decembrovym dnom a Perth po tomto domacom zapase, uz len zapasy proti momentalne TOP 5 teamom, z toho vacsinu na superovych ihriskach, cize plejof este musia riadne zabojovat. Po tomto zapase idu do Sydney (piate), potom maju doma Adelaide (stvrte) a nasledne dvojzapas proti Melbourne s Liz Cambage (doma + vonku) a zakoncia to dvojzapasom vonku v Canberre (jediny relativne lahky zostavajuci zapas) + v Townsville (momentalne druhe).

V tohtosezonnych vzajomnych Perth vyhral v oboch, doma v oktobri +10 (to hral Dandenong este aj s Blicavs a Lavey, dohromady dali 20bodov), druhy zapas novembrovy v Dandenongu +12 (bez Blicavs ale Lavey dala 11 bodov, 7 doskokov a 5 asistencii)

myslim ze o tych 13-15 bodov by to Perth mal na domacej palubovke zvladnut, hram -11.5 na unibete
