Melbourne Vixens back in winner's circle after victory over West Coast Fever West Coast Fever's Caitlin Bassett shoots despite plenty of attention from Melbourne Vixens defender Geva Mentor. MELBOURNE Vixens have bounced back from their first loss of the season to score a strong win over the West Coast Fever in Perth. Champion goaler Sharelle McMahon impressed as she played out the first full game of her comeback to help steer the Vixens to a 58-49 victory. After struggling with her accuracy in last week's one-goal loss to the Thunderbirds, McMahon put out a much improved performance today, shooting 23 goals from 30 attempts. But it was her shooting partner, goal attack Tegan Caldwell, who dominated the scoring to finish with 35 from 41. Wing attack Madison Browne starred in the midcourt for the Vixens, providing superb delivery for the goalers. The Vixens' win moved them to the top of the ANZ Championship ladder, with the second and third placed Firebirds and Thunderbirds to do battle today. Fever goaler Caitlin Bassett was the top scorer for the game with 39 goals from 43 attempts. Vixens coach Simone McKinnis started with Shannon Eagland in wing defence this week, with former Fever captain Jo Curran replacing her in the final quarter. McKinnis also gave young midcourter Kate Moloney a run, introducing her fresh legs at centre in place of Elissa Macleod late in the third quarter. After two weeks on the road, the Vixens will be back at home next Sunday to take on Central Pulse at Hisense Arena.
