In a gripping Round 14 encounter at RAC Arena, the West Coast Fever showcased their championship credentials by defeating the Melbourne Vixens 71–60. The Fever, who led narrowly 15–14 at the end of the first quarter, demonstrated resilience and tactical prowess throughout the match, solidifying their position at the top of the competition standings.

Melbourne Vixens` captain Kate Moloney was a standout performer, orchestrating play with 17 goal assists and 35 feeds. Her efforts were complemented by Zara Walters, who added 13 goal assists and 28 feeds.
