    do you know if all games will be shown live on foxtel Paul?
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    I believe so.

    Going to be a massive season - squads have been opened right up with 3 imports, "marquee" players and increased salary caps.

    Cashing in on Delly mania, post Olympics etc...............the time is right.
    Go Bball !!!

    I assume so, since I believe they signed a five-year deal before the start of last season to telecast all games live on Foxtel.

    SBS will be broadcasting one game a week, the Sunday afternoon game, live this year.

    Season about to tip off.
    All games can be viewed at www.nbl.tv

    Note you can view for FREE if you are a Telstra customer, and / or can view all of a SINGLE TEAM's matches for FREE.

    Otherwise the massive sum of $5.

    Every game so far this year, the Wildcats have been 10+ points in front at some point in the first half and yet managed to behind at 3/4 time. Tonight, they beat the NZ Breakers 75-73 at the Perth Arena, to go to 2-1 for the season.

    In those three games, they have been badly outscored in each of the 3rd quarters.
    Brisbane 29-14, Cairns 25-16 and NZ Breakers 23-8.

    does anyone know the real reason why Dollar Beal moved on from Wildcats? I have heard he was getting a bit too flirty with some of the players WAG's..... Was causing problems.
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    Was playing like sh!t.
    Pulled his finger out this season so far though - typical.

    He's starting for the Grizz today so I think a Wildcats come back may be on hold 
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    6 boards, 15 points
    He going nowhere

    Wildcats in real trouble, could this be the end of the run. when Bragg was out there they at least had some energy.
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    Imports are terrible (excl Prather), and too many injuries.

    I was listening to it driving home, I certainly don't follow it close but boys at work do so i'm in it second hand. I did go to the game thursday and it seems strange there at the moment. Bragg came on and gave them a real lift thursday and they started to get back into it then benched and away the game went. Tonight it sounded like Redhage had wound back the clock and had a real influence then come OT no sign of him.

    Nice debut by Bryce Cotton last night for the Wildcats, 26 points at 87% from the field.
  • TheDivaTheDiva    13,246 posts
    best debut ever by an import apparently... 
    i think you'll find the wildcats will make a recovery in this latter part of the season and play in the finals. 
  • TiversTivers    7,720 posts
    Has taken them from 30 year run is bust, to second fav's for title.

    And having their main floor general and captain courageous in Damian Martin back on court will give them a much needed and well deserved boost as they head towards the business end of the season :-bd
