Bill Woods is back commentating tonight's NBL game!

I found him horrendously annoying to begin with, but either he got better or I got used to him as the game went on.

Equally possible is that towards the end, the game finally became as exciting as he seemed to think it was. People bag Carfino for never getting excited, but getting excited about "ERVIN HAS THE BALL AND IS BRINGING IT UP THE COURT, IT'S ALL TIED AT TWO POINTS APIECE!" isn't exactly better.

if NBL.tv was more reliable they could get Bruce to commentate every game.

Except the ones being played at the same time of course, though Bill could probably do that too.

Love ya work Billy (hopefully Sportsfan Clubhouse is still on considering its made by Telstra not 7) and his work made tonight's game epic. Carfino was so much better being asked questions and not asking them himself.

Rosen was great in his limited role.

All hail Bill Woods for making our great game even more fun to watch

Plenty of mistakes were made, but his comments flowed well unlike many of the regulars. Bill also made Steve come across better, IMO.

Definitely rusty. But could be worse. Understands the fundamentals and better than Carfino as the play by play.

We've shared some tweets with Bill Woods over the past 12 months and I've seen him comment on some NBL topics on his show on TV. He seems as though he knows what's going on.

But I've been fooled before.

I remember calling the 1900 numbers for the NBA box scores/news updates in the 90s.

My mother questioned me who I was calling, when she found out it was to find out basketball scores she was relieved, my father however was a little disappointed.
