Tigers to play GF in Hobart- If they make it

AJ what you say is true, but if that is the reason why there is not the same level of consideration for basketball even though it is a sport at the same national level as Football, then the government has a lot to answer for. They need to take a lot of the responsibility for this situation. In taking over the SNHC for the Commonwealth Games even though it is before they officially start is a direct admission that they don't give this sport the respect it deserves.

This is also reflected in the fact that up until now the SA Government has not agreed to write off the debt BASA has with the Dome. By writing off this debt, it would allow the sport to flourish. It would allow more $'s for advertising and promoting the sport properly. Do you know that I have not yet seen the TV commercial featuring Willie & Dusty. Why not have the money to be able to advertise in prime time.

In fairness to the Tigers, all their GF games will be away games as Hobart is not home. It won't bring the home crowd. That's an unfortunate situation for them, one that should be given better consideration considering they are playing most of their regular season home games there. Use of the SHNC for the Commonwealth Games should only be booked for after the end of NBL season, after all the NBL season started earlier to be completed before the Commonwealth Games.

Can you imagine the outrage if for whatever reason an AFL grand final could not be played at the MCG.
