If the A-League was independent it would be like the NBL and constnatly have money problems and be a shambles.
Holy shark! Imagine that, the A-League being a shambles. Thank God the FFA have saved us from that.
The Australian NBL is now in a good place, With a good TV deal and FTA coverage and is not ran but Basketball Australia.
FFA take note.
The NBL has lost a chunk of teams, is owned by one of the teams participiating in it, and apparently pays to be on TV.
