NBL Live App

This morning on the way to work I heard an add for the NBL on the radio.

What sparked my attention even further was the add said
"Watch every game live Wednesday to Sunday live on foxtel AND NBL Live app now available on the app store"

I already signed up for foxtel specifically just to watch the NBL so gonna be pretty disappointed if there is a decent live streaming app also, many others will be excited though.

I couldn't see it on the app store when I had a look however.

It's the League's season launch this morning - possibly be announced today? fingers crossed. Sorry to hear you signed up to foxtel if that is the case.

I am seriously hoping there is still a live streaming option to be announced. Looked into the news corp subscription but unsure if that will be an effective way to watch the games? Has anyone tested?

Just searched the apple APP Store for "NBL Live". Nothing related to the NBL popped up.

No all doom and gloom if you got foxtel, you can still watch College Nba and euro basketball and the nbl, that's pretty awsome if you love bball

^Will have to wait on the completion of the NBL launch today.

I say if it is not announced today then we won't be getting an online streaming service this season.

This is a great year for Aussie basketball fans on Foxtel, seriously we are gonna watch the rise of Ben Simmons in the NCAA, the Aussies in the NBA and now the NBL. If you like watching a bit of everything then like me then Foxtel is perfect.

It's tonight, not this morning.

They're leaving it really late, if it is the case.

Better late than ever.

Also makes sense to leave it late (as no content on there till the first game).

Also it's a "big" ticket item that'll gain some publicity for the launch of the season. Fingers crossed it's true.

Windows Phone Store hasn't got the aforementioned app either. Hopefully it'll be for Personal Computers as well.

Just checked the Play Store and nothing there. But while I was there I did pick up one called Basketball Flop Simulator and it's every bit like watching a Wildcats game, right down to the uniforms. Uncanny.

In terms of letting people know about it so they don't have to sign up for Foxtel, though.

U would think the number of people that would sign up to Foxtel just for NBL would be a very very small minority.

I know I'm in that minority.

Hence my earlier post about playing chicken with the NBL and when I should pull the trigger.

Add me to that list. There would be a few for sure.

2-4 hours to go until we know if there will be a way to watch NBL games without foxtel this year!

I don't think anyone knows for sure that there even is an announcement, but the NBL launch started five minutes ago.

I think NBL will stream the games on Periscope.

Periscope isn't a platform for high production telecasts. LK wouldn't allow it. It's ok for preseason.

We are going by the thought that IF there is an announcement on an App it will be made tonight

It's pretty laggy here, reminds me of NBL.TV - True to the form is the NBL.

Maybe the nbl live app will just be live stats and scores etc?

Is anyone else frustrated that the NBL Live app restricts the screen size on live games? I was hoping that the family could watch away games live on my tv, I used to push NBLTV through my AppleTV to watch on a big screen.

I'm really disappointed that the NBL live app won't do this, it lets you watch replays on a big screen but not live games... Probably wouldn't have paid for it if I'd know this beforehand.

It doesn't even fill the screen on my iPad.

It's a shame as it spoils the whole experience... Poor choice Fox.
