Only Australians can enter NZ without isolation at that time, so that would exclude imports right?
Would that be people coming from Australia to New Zealand?
And anyone else feel that the NBL is just fucking over the Breakers just for fun now?
Yes indeed, the NBL colluded with the Chinese to eat as many bats as possible in November 2019 so that the Breakers wouldn't have home games, Tai Webster wouldn't take an experimental vaccination, and it entertains their long lived desire to watch the world burn.
I would have thought setting them up permanently in one location for their home games and try to at least market to expat Kiwi's would be the thing to do.
They were moved around last year because at different times VIC was in lockdown, as was NSW there was no time where one place could accommodate all teams coming to play them 'at home'.
This year the season started with the 'living with covid' strategy either not yet up or at its infancy, so again they were assigned safe places to play.
As to why their stadiums are empty, the NBL have stated it is cost prohibitive to have fans at their games (Vs Adelaide @ AA and Vs VJJ's @ MyState Bank Arena. being the exceptions to date).
This means that they know there aren't enough basketball supporting Cuzzy Bros that will come to the game, the one's that would manage to secure a ticket probably thought it was a Rugby game.
