NBL signed a bum deal with no comeback once they got bumped to midnight hour!

You can't promote a product that no one can see!!

Can't generate sponsorship revenue with no ads!

As Steve Carfino said when he left Hobart for Sydney, "you pay peanuts you'll get monkeys." NBL can't even buy the organ to make it dance!!

MikefromtheK, I second your rant. Packer and co are a bunch of fuckwits. Its a pity the NBL doesn't appear to have obtained a clause in the current deal with ONE that prohibits games being shown after a certain time. Maybe that should be a non-negotiable in future contracts?

In any case, television as we know it will slowly die as more and more content becomes available online. I hope Packer and his mates take a nice big loss when they eventually turn out the lights at Ten.

I find this quite amusing really.

One are claiming that the delay in the telecast is due to short notice in finding out the NBL finals schedule, but they are able to get a crew together, fly them interstate and record, produce and package up the game night content ready to be played.

The only issue is with when it actually comes on to our screens. It's not like they have a commitment to playing live AFL (or other significant event) which will push the starting times back, the delay for last nights game was because they wanted to start a movie at 10pm (by the way, who is going to sit up and watch a movie at 10pm on a Wednesday night?), which forced the NBL telecast to start at 12:30am.

So again, it's not like the "short notice" caused issues with the travel/recording/production of the telecast.

The NBL released the schedule before the last round had even completed. Absurd statement by the Ten Network.

I try to watch every game possible, but 12:30am starts.. Means it won't finish until 2:30am. That's beyond any joke.

It almost makes me a little ashamed that i run a NBL related website!
