“Everybody in the country knows about Samโs scoring and shooting ability, but the evolution of her game from a playmaking side of things this year, coupled with her ability to guard the opposition’s best guard every week, earnt her yet another all-WNBL 1st team, selection” – Head Coach Ryan Petrik

“We canโt play the way we do offensively or defensively without Lauren Scherf. She anchors our defense down 1 end of the court, and then down the offensive end sheโs essentially playing point guard from the centre position, which no other big in the country can do” – Head Coach Ryan Petrik

“We had enormous faith in what Robbi could do inside our system from when we first saw her walk onto the court for Joondalup. Once she settled in and got the hang of the pace and intensity of the National level, she was right at home and had a huge 2nd half of the season.” – Head Coach Ryan Petrik

“Mackโs rise over her last 2 seasons has been huge for us; from being a player who didnโt get to play much in the 21/22 season to somebody we trusted to be inside our 8-player rotation in 22/23. Mack clearly fits our style of play offensively, but her desire to improve in other areas was the catalyst for her rise up our ranks.” – Head Coach Ryan Petrik
