Possible NBL expansion locations

Dazz

You may not agree with other peoples opinions and that's fine - but their just opinions. I wouldn't rule out a possible major reform in the future which may point in that direction.

You need to not be so aggressive on forums and your response is quite simplistic and lacking in judgement. I also don't agree with your point regarding the Kestleman offer. I think its a good opportunity for the NBL to take if its actually true. Can you elaborate on the half assed proposal bit? Do you know something the rest of us don't?

Re A league V NBL comparison I couldn't agree more. Soccer may have the backing of the richest man in the country but theNBL has some big dollar players as well. Maybe the difference is the self interest in each NBL club rather than making big decisions that are best for the overall league.

Re Perth going into an Asian comp - it certainly wouldn't grow their brand in this country. Our TV networks are not going to be interested becasue they know the rest of the country doesn't care about Perth playing against a malaysian team or Chinese team or whatever. If Perth can get sponsors who want the exposure in Asia they might make money there, but Australia won't care about it.

A lot of this is being re visited, of course it is an interesting topic but more and more i see that we turn towards a model of consolidation and inclusion to foster a perception of growth and expansion.

Taking two steps back if you will to attempt three steps forward.

The ideas have been spoken about many times, and I am not totally against any good ideas of course, but in the end it will demand a high level of cooperation, coordination and leadership, with a fair bit of humble pie thrown in.

This is what is needed before anything else, good luck guys!

A second team in Adelaide or Sydney is a long way off and yet we still manage 2 teams in Nth Qld ( how odd is that)

You do realise Cairns and Townsville are miles apart, right?
