The A League Drama

I'll chuck in a few possible reasons for the NBL and the A-League to be under-achieving
- better-quality stuff is too available, and kids grow up with the best (NBA, EPL, etc) and can't cope with the ordinary stuff
- too expensive and time-consuming to go
- kids have too many distractions
- kids are bombarded by constant change and need novelty value to pay attention; the novelty value wears off after a few years, so they switch onto something else
