So will 9Go have a live game every Saturday and Sunday arvo at 2:30?

Foxtel app for streaming (if you are a Foxtel customer - you can register 5 devices)

NBL.TV is happening. Terms and conditions states 2018/2019 season.

does this dispel the theory that Fox won't show all games live?

Doesn't matter if NBL.tv is broadcasting all games live. Looks like NBL is looking after it's product before Foxtel.

Streaming is trash quality though.

I'd imagine if every game was live it would be splashed everywhere by fox and answered directly by the NBL.

The fact they’re showing Go games live makes it odd why they’d go so silent. Maybe they’re still trying to work it out (perhaps a chance games are shown on Nines main channel exclusively live?) because it’s a stupid move to not be clear about broadcast.

Looking at terms of nbl tv it says nothing about streaming the games let alone live. If it was live in nbl tv they’d have the logo next to fox sports.

Yeah I've seen nothing anywhere stating that any games will be shown even delayed on NBL TV let alone live streaming of any games after tomorrow three NBL x NBA games.

NBL TV is handy because of the on-demand replay feature.

I have missed a lot of games due to family commitments and envisage more so this year.

So NBL TV is my best way to catch up.

I believe channel 9 has all the rights to on-demand games after they've aired.

Great to see an extra half an hour added to each broadcast, more game analysis, wonder who pushed the idea though, Fox or the NBL?

Will be interesting to see how long the GO broadcasts are

All games are live on Fox for Round 1 so I don't see any reason why they wouldn't all be live for the whole season, particularly as I have heard on numerous occasions in the past few weeks that all games are live (just like 90% of sport televised on Fox).

Foxtel magazine only has first week live and the rest TBD

All tip off times got moved forward by 20 minutes, persumably due to complaints by Perth (fair). I think its as good a results as they could have hoped for. Originally were given 11:30am games, now 12pm.

Email from foxtel today says:
Every game in HD with no ad-breaks during play.

On the TV guide article they say every game live and in HD on Fox sports

Why can't the NBL just tell us whether every game of every round are live or not?

Who knows, it *seems* like the status for this year is:

FTA
1. 2 games Live on GO! each week; 2:30PM AEDT Sat, Sun (2.5 hrs per game)
2. A Sunday morning NBL show perhaps starting midseason/not at the start

FOX
3. All games Live & in HD

Streaming
4. All games Live NBLTV
5. All games Live on Fox Streaming
6. 2 games Live on 9GO & catchup on 9GO for all other games

Hopefully next year we see something like:
During October/November/February/March games on Nine Network
During December/January on GO!

With broadcast on Sat/Sun being: 3PM-5:30PM AEDT/2:30-5PM ACDT/2-4:30PM AEST/12-3PM AWST.

If a game starts at 3:20PM AEDT, and ends at 5:20 - that gives the broadcast an opportunity to finish on time if overtime is played, or if it goes into multiple overtimes, it will still easily finish prior to the 6pm news.

I think 12:20PM start in Perth is much more viable than 11:50AM, and generally it's a better broadcast time in the other states.

Thanks Ket

The hour of dead air between games is a terrible idea.

What hour of dead air? On fox the nbl coverage is continuous back to back

Might've been forced onto them by 9.

Plenty of games usually go over the 2 hour block which would constantly screw up their programming schedule at least this way always allocate a 2.5 hour block knowing they can just fill the last 15-20 minutes with something and the rest of the schedule remains intact.

It gives people time to change the channel, too.

Why would you call nbl pre and post game dead air? It's the opposite, increase in airtime for nbl

Dead air for NBL TV viewers perhaps not for Fox viewers.
