Foxtel Commentators

What's the story behind Gaze possibly not being involved? I would have had him as an automatic pick, considering every game is televised and they're bringing in guys like Rosen and Heal...

Though I really hope Carfino isn't around.

"Heal and Rosen in, Gaze out."

Please tell me that Brad Rosen is not part of the commentary team!!! I find him irritating.

How did Joyce's commentary give you the impression he wasn't ever a coach? I don't remember him going five minutes without bringing up the time he coached a Wollongong team with no good players to a championship.

Heal and Rosen in, Gaze out.

Presumably they'll announce Joyce shortly, and that Carfino will do all the play-by-play, and then charge extra for the ability to mute the games.

I thought Santamaria and Quade did a good job of the pre-season tournament. They actually seem to know and care about what is going on in the league and showed a bit of passion at times too. Certainly a breath of fresh air after Carfino all these years. I'd be happy to hear more of them for the season proper.

id say dwayne russell is a definite, going by what he has said and basically has confirmed he will be calling nbl on his twitter.

Roy and HG would be great once per round.

Carfino's only welcomed back if he's doing colour and not play-by-play.

I'd also prefer commentary more like the NBA - Excessive "Footy" or "Horse Racing" play-by-play isn't good for basketball.

Well no NBL on TV would be worse I guess...

There would be nothing worse than an AFL commentator doing basketball with no knowledge of basketball.
