New NBL Television Deal "Well advanced"

As a squad Townsville were my favourite this past season and if I had written on paper what I wanted in terms of players bringing a certain something then that is Townsville.

I understand your questioning of what Townsville are because let's face it they are 10 individuals that bring a little something each and the result can be flogging Perth and Wollongong or winning back to back games basically all season long.

I feel if you can keep atleast the core together again for another season and hopefully the young side can develop further and a healthy Markovic and they could be just as scary to play as any

But on the other side of the coin, if you take that to the nth degree and just have Sydney playing Melbourne every week, you get fan fatigue setting in from seeing the same contest all the time.
For me personally, that would definitely be a factor and is one of the main reasons I really don't want the number of teams dropping below 8.
If fans lose interest then that's a negative for tv as well.

They showed a bucket load of Wollongong games though! But I agree with your point.

Don't worry, NBL wont be on Channel 10 anymore anyway :)
