Everything went according to plan in Wulguru where third ranked Melbourne Tigers (10-6) beat bottom-ranked Townsville Crocodiles (4-9) 95-77 on Friday. The game without a history. Melbourne Tigers led from the first minutes and controlled entire game increasing their lead in each quarter. They made 19-of-25 free shots (76.0 percent) during the game. Melbourne Tigers shot the lights out from three sinking 18 long-distance shots on high 62.1 percentage. They looked well-organized offensively handing out 21 assists. Worth to mention a great performance of the former international guard Chris Goulding (192-88) who helped to win the game recording 26 points and 5 assists and forward Lucas Walker (202-84, college: St.Mary's, CA) who added 18 points and 9 rebounds during the contest. The best for the losing side was the former international forward Jacob Holmes (201-83) with 13 points and 6 rebounds and the former international forward Todd Blanchfield (200-91) scored 10 points and 8 rebounds. Both teams had four players each who scored in double figures. Townsville Crocodiles' coach rotated ten players seeing no chance for a win. Melbourne Tigers have an impressive six-game winning streak. They maintain third position with 10-6 record having just one points less than leader Wildcats. Townsville Crocodiles lost fourth consecutive game. They dropped to the bottom place with nine games lost. Melbourne Tigers will face New Zealand Breakers (#7) in Auckland in the next round.
