Fremantle Sharks 77 defeat Souwest Jets 42
The Sharks newfound form served them well with a 35-goal win over the Jets.
The Sharks mid-court Numi Tupaea, Jessica Reppacholi and Indiana Squiers were a force down the court and provided crucial options around the circle.
Their shooting end were all consistent and high scoring with Sophie Eastaugh (28), Kasey Ridout (26) and Mwai Kumwenda (23).
The Jets had a high rotation of players entering the court, and too many unforced errors to match the Sharks. Young gun Lily Knight was the saving grace for the team taking 28 goals for herself.

Western Roar 83 defeat Rangers 24
After their first loss last week, the Western Roar were back to their sensational selves. Caitlyn Brown’s ability to read the play and anticipate ball made the Ranger shooting end struggle. Roar’s Sophia Lamers shot 45 from 49 for herself.
For the Rangers, Aisha Morcombe (12), Emily Cramond (eight), Abbey Hicks (three) and Olivia Doyle (one) all played their hand in goals, but the side could not keep up with the reigning premiers.
West Coast Warriors 48 defeat Southside Demons 46
The most anticipated game of the round was no let down in a match that stayed close from start to finish.
The Warriors took an initial lead in the first quarter, but were quickly hunted down by the Demons to keep the match goal-for-goal.
The Demons Kelsey McPhee (23), Georgia Ettridge (13), Meg Gallager (seven) and Brooke Marques (three) fought incredibly hard for their side in the circle.
In the end, the Warriors ability to move the ball between the Jauncey sisters, feeding through Honey Harrington and Tierra Miller has becoming the winning play, with Jamaica Jauncey scoring the final two goals to solidify their win.
