UC Caps Weekly

After a near fatal brush with some spicy Thai, Jade Melbourne returns to 'The Weekly' to bring us all up to date. She talks WNBA, recruiting from half a world away and about the amazing chemistry the new Caps team has.

And we're all excited for Saturday night!

Hey Caps fans! Remember us?

After a tragic season-ending headphone injury at the beginning of last season's competition, the UC Caps Weekly team are back and ready for season number 5.

After hours of painful rehab and encouragement from WNBL stars like Gemma Potter and Dallas Loughridge, we've made it out the other side and cant wait to get stuck into the new 2025/26 WNBL season.

As with previous seasons, we kick off with the Coach's Preview and we sit down with Paul Goriss as he introduces us to the new Capitals line up.

Let's Goooooooooooooo!!!! 

In this episode, we review the first 4 rounds of the new season and we catch up with an old friend of the pod.

We're back, just in time for the beginning of the 2024/25 Cygnett WNBL Season.
We recap the end of last season, discuss another tumultuous off-season, review Jade Melbourne's debut Olympic Games performance and second WNBA Season, discuss the new UC Caps documentary, GO BIG!, and preview the new team heading into this new season. There is so much to talk about!

Well, it was no surprise to anyone, but Jade Melbourne has been named in the Opals team that is headed to Brazil for the Olympic Qualifying tournament. We take a look over the final team as well as breaking down both the Capitals games from Round 11 of the WNBL

With 3 wins from the last 4 games, our UC Capitals are looking very bullish in 2024.
We review the last 2 games and talk about the amazing development of our team over the past 3 months. 
2024 is going to be a huuuuge year for women's hoops and the UC Capitals are getting their share!

Two wins were a fantastic early present for all the good Caps fans. Michelle and Simon discuss the win at Radford College and take a look at where the team is at at the halfway mark of the season. We also look at the Opals squad and pick our 12 for the trip to Brazil in February.

Wishing you all a happy holiday and a restful break and we look forward to catching you all in the New Year.

Boy, do we have a lot of catching up to do! Simon and Michelle catch up on the last 5 UC Capitals games but don't worry. We freshen your listening palate halfway through with a great interview with the legend of Maitland Basketball, Shakera Reilly. 
Oh, and the Caps won their first game of the season on Friday night!

LFGOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

The new @thewnbl is underway and the @uccapitals already have 4 games in the books. While yet to record a win, there have been a ton of positives as our young team grows in confidence and strength with every game. 

In this episode, we review the first 4 games and we also launch our new Q&A segment.

The rocket has left the launch pad for @thewnbl season 2023/24 and things are looking up in the nation's capital.

This week we handed over the lead microphone to none other than Jade Melbourne.
We get all the news from her first WNBA season with the Seattle Storm and she talks us through all her new UC Capitals teammates for the 2023-24 WNBL Season.

This one's a cracker so put on your walking shoes or sit down with your favourite beverage for an hour of the Goat Jr.

Let's Gooooo!
