Thank you. You're doing it for the NBL and now also improved the promotion and fixtures of the national team. Can't wait for what's next.

Hopefully next...
Nbl1 Australia wide, more talent into the nbl to deepen benches (potential nbl1 import spot into nbl) and takeover the wnbl and align the women's teams with the men’s.
Yes been fantastic, let's hope he doesn’t lose the passion. Tasmanian supporters get out to preseason and get you own team.

Absolutely, the boss of everything and everything in its place.
(But I am a Victorian.)
Shout out to loeliger also. Does not act like your typical ceo. Great guy.
Lets hope the Tassie public get out and support the Blitz. No support. No Tassie Team.

And then the world.

Larry didn't look happy when they cut to him with about 2 minutes to go in the crowd.

He's a big business man the result was immaterial all he was thinking about was the ACCC investigation and the refunds.

I don't care how rich Larry is or how rich he gets (thinking Tasmania), I just hope that the people support it down there and they get a team. He's doing a marvellous job.
Definite love and respect for Loeliger, he will be a massive loss for the NBL when he decides to move on... let's hope that isn't for a very long time.

Tasmanians better get out to every Blitz game and fill these stadiums, to the point where there are people begging for tickets. If they truly want a team in the NBL, they'll show it. You don't want to see a repeat of the Townsville debacle a few years back, when the NBL spent a ton of money on the event but no-one showed up. That as much as anything else was the final straw for the Crocs and I'm sure LK, who would have been pissed off about the Townsville deal, won't look upon Tasmania favourably as a potential entrant if he doesn't see there is a legitimate hunger in the state for the NBL.
Team 11 surely has to be Wellington but will nz change there name to Auckland breakers? And will they agree to a second team in nz?
They'd stay as the NZ Breakers, just as the Eagles stayed as West Coast when Fremantle entered the AFL.
