No doubt all comes down to money. Given the games are now on Foxtel and they are in bed with Telstra it does all seem a little strange though.

I don't mind that Telstra stopped sponsoring the NBL and stopped giving away NBL.tv but did they have to remove a functional app from the Telstra TV?

I had the free NBL subscription through Telstra last year. I literally couldn't care less if I have to pay $5 a month for it this time. It is really a very small amount.
I am concerned however that there has been no mention of how or IF NBLtv is going to even run again this year? I know the site is still there and they will take your money still I assume... but it hasn't been mentioned at all. I won't buy it till they do.

I noticed many months ago Telstra were advertising streaming for "AFL, NRL and netball" without any mention of NBL anymore.

"Wow, you're complaining, yet today they announced two free to air games a week on SBS. How about download the app, and mirror the games to your TV, or alternatively get a Fox sports subscription and watch every game also. "
I normally don't support complaining on first world problems, but in this case there is a bg difference between getting NBL TV for free last season where you can watch all games, and stream previous games on demand to your suggestion of SBS or Fox.
Of course they could just pay for NBL TV, which hopefully is $5 / month again.

I saw the same thing. Wonder if that means it wont be excluded from data allocation on 4g now as well.

Some people will never be happy.
Well done to the NBL on the free to air deal and the ESPN deal for the NBA games.


Whispers surrounding American guard and reigning NBL MVP Gary Ervin's rumoured defection to Adelaide are getting louder, leaving the Hawks with the task of recruiting two new imports.
