Victoria 76, South Australia 64

• Quarter Scores: Q1 21–23 │ Q2 15–8 │ Q3 16–19 │ Q4 24–14
• Largest Lead: Victoria by 12
• Game Context: Pool play – Day 2

Victoria controlled the contest through balance, defensive activity, and late-game execution after a tight opening half. South Australia edged the first quarter 23–21 behind early interior work, but Victoria responded in the second term, holding South Australia to just eight points while lifting their defensive pressure and rebounding to take a five-point lead into halftime.

The game remained in the balance through the third quarter as South Australia won the period 19–16, trimming the margin with improved shot-making and ball movement. Krystal Thompson provided consistent scoring during this stretch, finishing with 17 points, while Keira Gardiner added presence on the glass with 12 rebounds to keep South Australia within reach.

Victoria broke the game open in the final quarter, outscoring South Australia 24–14 to close the contest. Isobelle Wightman led the way with 18 points on 7-from-13 shooting, repeatedly converting in halfcourt sets and finishing possessions with rebounds. Layla Exton was decisive off the bench, producing 15 points and a game-high 14 rebounds, giving Victoria control of the glass and extra possessions during the closing stretch.

Tayli DiMarco steadied Victoria throughout, contributing 11 points and nine assists while consistently getting to the free-throw line. Mia Harvey added 10 points with perimeter scoring, and Victoria’s collective activity resulted in a 48–40 rebounding edge and 12 steals, limiting South Australia’s ability to generate sustained offence late.

South Australia’s resistance came through Thompson’s scoring efficiency and Coco Hodges’ playmaking, with Hodges finishing with 11 points and seven assists. However, South Australia’s shooting efficiency (33 percent from the field) and limited bench production made it difficult to match Victoria’s fourth-quarter control once the margin pushed beyond two possessions.

• Quarter Scores: Q1 20–13 │ Q2 19–15 │ Q3 23–20 │ Q4 20–14
• Largest Lead: Tasmania by 23
• Game Context: Pool play – Day 2

Tasmania established control early and maintained it across four quarters, pairing efficiency inside with pressure defence and free-throw volume to steadily extend the margin. Millie Baker led the offence with 20 points on 6-from-11 shooting and 8-from-11 at the line, while also adding five assists as Tasmania consistently created advantages and punished breakdowns.

Tasmania’s separation was built through paint production and second efforts, finishing with 46 points in the paint and matching Victoria Navy with 21 second-chance points. Chloe Broomhall anchored the possession battle with 15 rebounds (seven offensive) and added 11 points and six assists, giving Tasmania repeated extra trips and consistent playmaking stability.

Victoria Navy stayed competitive through stretches, with the third quarter holding shape at 23–20, but turnovers and limited perimeter efficiency prevented sustained runs. Evelyn Martyn led Victoria Navy with 12 points and eight rebounds, while Sierra Woolhouse produced nine points and seven rebounds. Lily Newman-Morris contributed eight points, five rebounds, and three assists, but Victoria Navy’s ball security issues (23 turnovers) and three-point shooting (5-from-25) limited their ability to fully close the gap.

Tasmania’s balance across the starting group ensured control through the second half. Andie Smith posted 14 points, eight rebounds, and three steals while getting to the line (6-from-8 FT), and Portia Chopping added 15 points and five assists, including three made threes. Nikki Parker contributed 12 points on 5-from-9 shooting, helping Tasmania maintain scoreboard control even as rotations shifted.

Largest Lead: New South Wales by 38
Game Context: Pool play – Day 2

New South Wales established control from the opening quarter and steadily extended the margin across all four periods, combining early perimeter efficiency with consistent interior production to put the game out of reach before halftime. NSW shot 47 percent from the field and 52 percent on two-point attempts, repeatedly generating clean looks through ball movement and penetration, while also capitalising on ACT turnovers to score 24 points off mistakes.

Rebecca Donnelly set the offensive tone with 22 points on 8-from-18 shooting, including six made threes, stretching the floor and forcing ACT into extended closeouts. Freya Bijkerk added 18 points on 7-from-14 shooting, finishing efficiently inside and on second actions, while Jessie-May Hall provided a strong scoring burst in limited minutes with 17 points on 7-from-11 from the field. Olivia Hastings contributed across multiple areas with nine points and eight rebounds, anchoring NSW’s work on the glass and helping generate second-chance opportunities.

NSW’s depth further separated the contest. Ruby Perkins finished with nine points, seven rebounds and four assists, keeping tempo steady, while Kaila Proctor and Kijana McCowan combined for defensive pressure and transition outlets, contributing to NSW’s 24 fast-break points. The bench accounted for 40 points overall, allowing NSW to maintain pace and physicality throughout rotations.

Australian Capital Territory struggled to match NSW’s efficiency and ball security, finishing at 34 percent from the field and committing 23 turnovers.

Achol Agok recorded seven points, 12 rebounds and four assists, providing interior resistance and playmaking, while Jorja Langi added eight points and Ava Tawake chipped in four points and three assists.

Quarter Scores: Q1 21–16 │ Q2 19–16 │ Q3 30–23 │ Q4 22–25
Largest Lead: Queensland by 22
Game Context: Pool play – Day 1

Queensland built control through interior efficiency and free-throw pressure, opening a decisive gap in the third quarter and holding Victoria Navy at arm’s length the rest of the way. Queensland shot 62 percent on two-point attempts and generated 52 points in the paint, repeatedly collapsing the defence off penetration and post seals. The third-term surge (30–23) pushed the margin beyond two possessions and set the tone for the closing stretch.

Emma Petrie anchored the performance with 21 points on 8-from-11 shooting, adding 10 rebounds and five assists while finishing consistently at the rim and off quick decisions. Taryn Bond provided secondary scoring with 17 points, converting six of 10 two-point attempts, while Prasaysus Notoa controlled tempo with 10 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists, allowing Queensland to play through multiple actions without stalling.

Queensland’s bench impact was significant. Cheyenne Bobongie delivered 14 points and three assists, drawing fouls and converting at the line (8-of-11), while Keriana Hippolite added 11 points on 5-from-6 shooting, providing clean finishing when rotations shifted. Rica Chanel Enriquez-Paea chipped in six points and a steal, helping Queensland maintain pressure across lineups.

Victoria Navy stayed in touch through perimeter shot-making and transition spurts, shooting 42 percent from three. Lily Newman-Morris led the way with 18 points on 7-from-9 shooting, including four triples, while Isabelle Godfrey added 14 points and four assists. Evelyn Martyn contributed 12 points on efficient interior finishes, and Sophie Alexander recorded five points with five assists, but Victoria Navy’s difficulty defending the paint and conceding free throws (Queensland 29-of-37 FT) limited their ability to close the gap late.

South Australia established early control behind a dominant first quarter, scoring 39 points as Deng Manyang and James Mackenzie combined to apply consistent scoreboard pressure. Manyang converted every field-goal attempt on his way to 25 points, while Mackenzie added 16 points as South Australia built a double-digit margin through efficient shot-making and ball movement.

New South Wales responded in the second quarter, winning the period 29–11 to erase the deficit. Bailey Hanson drove the turnaround, generating offence both as a scorer and passer and finishing the half with control of tempo. Ethan Marten-Coney added interior scoring and rebounding support as NSW levelled the contest at the main break.

The decisive stretch came in the third quarter as South Australia reasserted control, outscoring NSW 25–14. Alex Dickeson orchestrated this phase, contributing across scoring, rebounding, and playmaking, while Manyang continued to convert advantages in the half court and transition. South Australia limited NSW’s perimeter efficiency and protected the ball to rebuild separation.

New South Wales made a late push in the fourth quarter, scoring 26 points to cut the margin inside the final minute. Jayden Tawake provided perimeter scoring during the closing stretch, and Hanson continued to pressure the defence downhill. However, South Australia closed the game from the free-throw line and secured key defensive rebounds to hold on for the three-point win. Tawake missed a three at the buzzer to send it to overtime.

Australian Capital Territory set the early tone by winning the first quarter 28–21, with Ajak Nyuon providing immediate scoring volume on his way to 39 points, including eight made threes. Victoria Navy stabilised in the second quarter, flipping the game with a 28–19 period as Malik Davis began to impose himself offensively and on the glass, finishing with 34 points and 13 rebounds.

Victoria Navy’s control tightened after halftime through a cleaner shot profile and sustained perimeter efficiency. Nicholas Beattie provided secondary scoring and playmaking with 19 points and five assists, while Jarvis Neal impacted the possession game with 14 points and 12 rebounds. Chayse Vincent added 11 points and four assists as Victoria Navy consistently converted from three (14-from-29) to keep ACT from stringing stops together.

ACT stayed within range through Nyuon’s scoring and Seliano Melekiola’s creation, with Melekiola posting 17 points and six assists. Bul Dhieu added 10 points on perfect shooting (3-from-3 FG) to support ACT’s offence, but turnovers and Victoria Navy’s transition pressure shaped the final margin.

Victoria Navy closed the game with a strong fourth quarter, scoring 28 points to maintain separation as Davis continued to score efficiently (13-from-22 FG, 5-from-10 from three) and Beattie converted at the line (6-from-6 FT). The rebounding edge (54–42) and fast-break production (17–2) helped Victoria Navy hold control to the final horn.

Victoria took control in the second quarter, outscoring Tasmania 30–17 to build separation after a tight opening term. Jai Fa’ale led Victoria in scoring with 14 points, while Joel Robinson and Henry Sewell added 13 apiece as Victoria’s ball movement (19 assists) and interior efficiency (32-from-54 on two-point attempts) established a margin that held across the second half.

Tasmania’s offence was driven by Mason Ling, who finished with 22 points on 8-from-16 shooting with four made threes. Logan Gibson carried the rebounding load and created offence through volume, recording 18 points, 16 rebounds, and six assists. Tasmania generated perimeter volume (46 three-point attempts), but shot 26 percent from three and 30 percent overall, making it difficult to sustain runs once Victoria’s lead extended beyond two possessions.

Victoria’s production came from multiple lineups. Austin Foxwell contributed 12 points, six rebounds, and four assists, while Bailey Marshall added nine rebounds as Victoria won the glass 56–44 and finished with 60 points in the paint. Robinson scored 13 points on 5-from-8 shooting, and Sewell delivered 13 points on 6-from-9 to keep Victoria efficient inside the arc.

Tasmania’s secondary scoring came through Tommy Stewart, who finished with 10 points, and Jasper Hay added five points and five rebounds. However, Victoria’s overall control of possessions – including a 13–5 edge in fast-break points and a 33–17 advantage in bench points – kept Tasmania from closing the gap through the final quarter.

• Quarter Scores: Q1 34–24 │ Q2 27–25 │ Q3 27–19 │ Q4 31–24
• Largest Lead: Western Australia by 28
• Game Context: Pool play – Day 2

Western Australia set the tone immediately with a 34-point first quarter and never let Queensland back inside striking distance, stacking points across all four periods and finishing with 62 points in the paint and 23 assists. Marley Sam was the primary driver, posting 26 points and eight assists on 9-from-16 shooting, consistently creating advantage in the halfcourt and punishing switches and closeouts. Hayden Price’s bench burst added a second downhill scoring option, finishing with 14 points on 5-from-7 shooting, while Harrison Fitzgerald added 14 points and five rebounds as WA’s lead stayed above two possessions from early in the second term onward.

Queensland kept scoring pressure through perimeter shot-making (12 threes at 44 percent) and trips to the line, with Tyrell Mason producing 18 points on 7-from-8 from the field and Zac McDowell-White adding 18 points with four made threes and four assists. Brodie McGregor chipped in 14 points, eight rebounds and five assists, helping Queensland generate 17 assists, but the possession game tilted heavily: Queensland committed 21 turnovers to WA’s 10, and Western Australia converted those mistakes into 26 points.

WA’s depth and defensive activity separated the contest further through the middle quarters. Lowell Jude Christopher delivered 12 points with four rebounds and two steals, while Lachlan Burnett added 10 points on efficient shooting and Andreas Grubisa contributed 10 points. Jongkuch Mach provided 6 points and 4 rebounds in 12 minutes, and Billy McRae stabilised the second unit with 8 points, 4 assists and 4 free throws. WA finished with 51 bench points, keeping pace and physicality high even as rotations shifted.

For Queensland, Logan Rebetzke added 10 points on 3-from-5 shooting and Nick Kirk scored 10 off the bench, but the combination of turnover pressure (11 WA steals) and WA’s consistent paint finishing (33-from-59 on twos) meant Queensland’s scoring runs were answered quickly. WA closed with 31 points in the fourth to push the margin out to 27 at the horn.
