Hopefully the domain or whatever has expired gets renewed? It had a lot of good NBL info on it.
He rage quit when the Hawks lost to the Wildcats again.

I'd say ask the guy on twitter but he has stopped tweeting as well
Think the foul ended up been a flagrant 2 and he is never coming back
he blocked me on twitter for disagreeing with one of his posts.
Just another website that trolls the internet with out doing true journalism.

hahaha anon internet poster complains about 'journalisms'
Nat was just about the only source of online quality NBL news during periods where the NBL as an organisation was barely functioning. He put his money and time where his mouth was and did more to support the game than any anon keyboard warrior. Anyone with half a brain and a love of Australian basketball owes a shitload to andthefoul.
I always found the problem with AndTheFoul was he ran the site and social media like a personal account and it made it seem alot more amateur than most of the content he provided.
Good on him for putting in the time and effort while he did though.
dont know that sucking up to Cam Tragadh is quality NBL news but whatever floats your boat.

It's hard to run a site like that year after year for longer than a few years when you have competing priorities in life (kids, partner, job, etc). Especially when it doesn't make enough money to justify giving it more focus.
In the case where more or less one individual is driving so much of the content, the project is particularly susceptible to dropping off the face of the Earth. Spread the involvement to multiple people and then you're working by committee plus splitting the proceeds.
If there weren't a number of people here starting topics and carrying on by themselves, Hoops would be a lot more susceptible too rather than being entirely reliant on my personal interest in basketball.
Kingpodge is right - wtf are these anons going on about?
Whatever you may think of the website owner (Nat?) he put a lot of work into uploading rare NBL content that was lost - i.e. many NBL articles from the 90s scanned out of One on One magazine.
Also he started an NBL wiki which had entries not available on the main Wikipedia, even though my gripe with that was it was undercutting the main wiki, but can't fault him for effort.
You can still view the website through cache and archive websties, there is a treasure chest of info on it. Was reading the other day info about Gold Coast Rollers and how they got dumped from the league AFTER complying with the requirements re: stadium. The council went and spent the $800K for air conditioning prior to the changeover to summer and guess what? They get removed from the league anyway. Another NBL joke move, good to be reminded that the club had $ and did what they were told yet still get the flick. Info like this you can't find anywhere else.

In regards to the lack of websites with NBL content - I would watch this space
