Eurosport on Foxtel means Eurocup & Greek league?

Recent word is Eurosport Asia Pacific is going to be added to the suite of Foxtel channels in the next month or two (along with a heap of other additional channels).

What this means is we may be able to see the Eurocup (Europe's second tier competition) and also I believe the Greek league which Eurosport Asia Pacific showed last year.

Shame Bard Newley is not playing in Greece anymore but I believe it does mean we'll get to see him play in the Eurocup along with other aussies like Aaron Baynes for Lietuvos Rytas.

Does anyone out there have SelecTV that currently carries this channel and watched either of these leagues on Eurosport Asia Pacific last year? Just wondering what the coverage may have been like and if they showed anything else of note on the bbal front...

Thanks for letting us know avv, hopefully it is in the standard sports package.

Nielsen's team, Valencia, is in the qualifying for the Eurocup - and they would be expected to make it through to the main draw. Newley's team, Besiktas (sp.) is also in the qualifiers.

Daniel Kickert's team - assuming he is returning to Canaria - is in the main draw. Kickert is an impact player off the bench for them.

Wade Helliwell just signed with PAOK in the Greek A!, and Mark Dickel played there last year, not sure what he is doing this year.
