Regular Season Round 8: Townsville - Melbourne 73-66

Date: November 23, 2017
An exciting game between Top Four teams was played in Townsville. First ranked Townsville Fire faced second-ranked Boomers. Host Townsville Fire (8-4) defeated guests from Melbourne (8-6) 73-66. Townsville Fire made 25-of-29 charity shots (86.2 percent) during the game. Townsville Fire outrebounded Boomers 47-36 including 18 on the offensive glass. The winners were led by the former international center Suzy Batkovic-Brown (195-80) who had that evening a double-double by scoring 17 points and 16 rebounds and forward Darcee Garbin (187-94) supported her with 18 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists. Even 13 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists by the former international Jenna OHea (185-87) did not help to save the game for Boomers. New Zealand forward Kalani Purcell (188-95, college: BYU) added 5 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists for the guests. Townsville Fire have a solid four-game winning streak. They maintain first position with 8-4 record, which they share with Sydney and Perth. Boomers at the other side dropped to the fourth place with six games lost. Townsville Fire's next round opponent will be league's second-placed Sydney Uni Flames on the road and it will be for sure the game of the week. Boomers will play against Canberra Capitals and hope to win that game.
