While footy is almost back and we do hope WA pummels the Vics on Saturday in a game that surely is going over a couple of hundred points total, this weekend we’re saving our biggest cheers for Perth Lynx. The Anneli Maley- and Amy Atwell-led outfit finished second on the WNBL ladder this season, meaning they get home court advantage against Bendigo Spirit on Saturday afternoon in Game One of the semi-finals.
Go get ‘em tig- errr, Lynx!
