NBL commentary

At least the NBL got rid of John Casey. I couldn't handle his "user friendly roll" as for Carfino it has passed him, I feel when you turn on the NBL and hear a real strong American accent it seems a bit cheap/fake but, he's paid his dues, keep him on for quarter time/ half time interviews or special comments only.

I was watching some retro 6ers games the other day and forgot we had Quatermane commentating. It's a shame that all the good commentators are in the AFL. I say stick to the past players i.e Heal, Gaze and try and poach someone from the AFL

I agree, Joyce is great. He also makes it easy for people who don't know the game to watch and understand.

NZ's broadcast of Breakers home games is much better for showing highlights

I think the problem is they do, but it seems certain people are protected. Then players like Dean Brebner who hardly play, cops a baking from the commentators.

It seems like particular players get talked up regardless of how good or bad they are playing.
