AFL website - Match Centre as lousy as ever

[Gavin Excell]

Game Day Match Centre site currently "unavailable".

perhaps after all the upheaval of recent weeks we should take comfort in the regular familiarity of a losuy AFL website.

i've always wondered why on earth, for a multi million $$ company, the afl's website has always been slow, shite and full of rubbish

 

[year of the cat]

Absolute garbage. How much longer do we need to put up with these incompetents?

 

[radiojake]

I like the fact that you can't read any of the writing that's placed over the pictures

 

[Groupie_]

Their new website is just as bad as the old one.

It's slow and you can never find what you're after.

 

[Underarm]

I like the fact that you can't read any of the writing that's placed over the pictures

I like the fact that we've condemmed the website on the first night of Football...

 

[Crispy_]

Such a slow and clunky piece of crap

 

[Ahern2Boof]

Didn't they blow their own trumpet when they announced they had improved the match centre to a new user-friendly way over summer?

Go back to how it was in 2009-10.

Il be honest. Its better than last years monstrocity.
It was at its best in 2011.

Being further honest. Who the * do they employ to run this? Seriously does AFL marketing look at their website and think * thats mickey??
When they ask for randoms or whoever approves this s**t to give feedback- are these people mentally challenged or blind??

If everyone looks at the bottom right hand corner of their screen theyll see the last four digits are 2-0-1-3.
Someone let the AFL know.

 

[Ohhh Errol]

Fish rots from the top.

It's because of all the Bigpond s**t your browser has to run in the background.

If you're running Firefox, there's an add-on called NoScript that will allow tweaking of all the marketing/tracing miscellania and what you choose to allow to run. Once you find the script allowing the video to play, that's all you need.

Using a 'smart'phone?... you deserve to wait.

Should you get the add-on, you only need to allow 'bigfooty.com' in order to view this entire site. The rest of them are whores wanting to analyse your every move for their own eventual gain.

This page alone has 9 completely unnecessary off-site scripts.

What happened to the dot-to-dot thing? I loved it. Even though it's usually 5 mins behind.
