Totally agree. It’s clear this team does not belong at the Olympics.

This is Australia's and Brazil's final chance to qualify to the Olympics. Canada and Germany will have one more opportunity.

Had a chance to take on Brazil (no offence) but instead we get Germany lol.

Game of the day.  defeats  18-16 in an OT thriller. 

 

Mansfield, with Australia up 15-14, had a chance to put the game away after Netherlands committed their 10th foul, which gave them 2 free throws and possession. She missed both of them, and scored one, to put Australia up 16-14. Boonstra ties the game up with 5 seconds left, and Wilson misses a two for the win off the top of the backboard. Netherlands start with position in OT, and Boonstra comes up clutch yet again and sinks in the 2 just one possession in for the win!

 with an 18-12 win over  to advance to the final!

I know they’ll probably qualify in Debrecen, but this was a HUGE opportunity wasted to knock out potential medal contender Australia from their only chance at making the Olympics. Which makes this loss even more frustrating, besides the fact that they missed out on an Olympic ticket themselves. Oh well.
