R1: Melbourne vs Townsville
It wasn't exactly a remarkable assumption. In any event, the match report is also accessibly from the NBL's Twitter and Facebook pages, so it still wasn't hard to find.

The NBL tweeted the link. I didn't notice that it wasn't the NBL website because it looks exactly like the NBL website.

Apparently it's not on the NBL website, it's on something that simply looks identical to the NBL website: http://nbl.fspdev.com/featured-news/r1-report-blanchfield-returns-to-townsville-downs-crocs/

That's odd.



Melbourne have a lot of home games now because Hisense will be unavailable towards the end of the season due to the Australian Open.


Have they stated criteria for this year?They've confirmed that Majok is ineligible. There'd be no question over Sobey, as he played NBL last season.


There's plenty of Blitz footage, and Fox did a bunch of interviews with players and coaches over that weekend.


Rucker is fantastic. Genuinely excited to commentate.
Loved when Blanchfield hit that three.."and Blanchfield's like ima just bank in this 26 footer three".

Ha, great banter...
'Are you saying Americans inflate their height?'
'They shrink coming over on the plane!'
Great stuff :)

Enjoying the contest, but what did Schensler do wrong early in the third to get an offensive foul of Machook Machook?
Loving the commentary too...


Serious question:
Is Jett's hair allowed?
Sure longish hair is fine but his hair is down to his belly button!

Don't think the Crocs will miss Blanchfield as much as first thought.
Steindl will fill that hole nicely I reckon.

Got on Melb by 11 + at TAB NZ at $4.20.
Thought that was good value.
If any team is going to get complacent /take their foot off the pedal its Melb though.


Definitely green/green/green - quite a few empty seats - hope it fills a bit
