VIC M-League 2019: Mixed Premier Division preview – Round 6
WITH a big top four matchup between Parkville Panthers and Eastside Sonics on Wednesday, it seems that the mostly even ladder could see some big change ups with results across the board that could change the competition during these early stages.

Mixed Premier Division – Round 6
2/10/19
7:00pm, 9:40pm
While the Sonics have a variety of options across the court, the reigning premiers have proved just too strong thus far with an unbeaten record and percentage to match. Sitting on two wins and two losses for the season so far, the Sonics will risk dropping down the ladder if results from matches further down the ladder don’t go their way. For the Sonics, Jesse Failla has been solid throughout the season down the midcourt, finding plenty of space around the court and attacking circle edge to create goaling opportunities. The shooting combination of David Coy and Beth Wilson has been great with the pair sharing the load to provide a threat with ball in hand all around the circle. For Parkville, it will be a matter of finding the form and consistency they had prior to the bye last week, with a smattering of VNL players in Elle McDonald, Uneeq Palavi and Casey Adamson all able to have an impact regardless of the amount of time they spend on court.
In other matches, DDNA face Valley Wolves while St Therese take on Pasifika Sharks and NNE Vipers have the tough challenge of Geelong Cougars. Meanwhile, Melbourne City Blackhawks have the bye.
