I believe tomorrow is the first televised triple header in league history. Only took ~40 seasons but we're there now.

You mean this never happened in the 90's with 12-14 teams and Channel 7 coverage?

Pretty sure there was one in 2015/16, but officially that season never happened.

I think a great tv deal would be similar to the old one. Show all live on fox nationally. Then show the local games on sbs. So for instance tonights game would only be shown in sydney and adelaide.
SBS doesn't have state versions of its channels, unlike the other four FTA atations.
kr which day and round in 2015-16? If it's wrong tell me details. Thanks

Friday sounds right, I remember only watching the first one (would have been in NZ) as Perth had a home game in the third.
I'll miss this one as well, as I'm out tomorrow afternoon...
I never watched it as the first game started at 2:30pm western time on a working day... rofl.
This time I will.
Only two and a half hours to go.
Time to prepare for six hours of goodness.
^^^^^^
Love it, I'm the same, Nbl so good again.
Hopefully no blowouts. Great that Kings aren't playing today :)

I'm counting it down too can't wait 6 hours straight of NBL :)
This is still history as that first televised triple header mentioned above included a game from Sky NZ. This is the first triple header televised exclusively from Australia. Great job LK.
