Nice piece on there today about Hamish McIntosh.

http://kangaroosfc.com.au/default.asp?pg=news&spg=display&articleid=70167

However, i have a little gripe:
I had a look at the player profiles though and was disappointed to see they havent updated them, as they've still got all the retirees and delisted/traded players listed.

I dont expect all the profiles to be updated considering that they still have significant time left in the pre-season and guernsey numbers etc are yet to be finalised, but at least they could remove the blokes no longer on our list.
 
I do agree though. The new website is better than the old official one looks wise, but the content can leave a lot to be desired...

The article in last weeks HUN wasn't on the site at all, does the site only publish articles from the Age or is it supposed to be both papers?

Thanks for the article about Hamish

Don't know if you're being sarcastic or not Briedis, so I'm going to take it on face value.

Criticism of the website is well founded in my view. The content is hopelessly out of date and fails to appreciate that one of the main measures of value of any website is in its currency, particularly as "a weeks a long time in football". :)

It also suggests to me that the club is missing out on meeting the needs of its supporters. We pay to keep the club alive, but we also pay in expectation of a service.

Without constructive criticism we won't go forward.

With the crash of this site, did we lose impetus for doing something ourselves, as suggested by Neo?

Alternatively, Carlos or whoever, is anyone here linked into the NMFC Committees as supporters representatives? That would change the gripes into constructive criticism.

I find the only site of value to be the Age Real Footy site even there they don't really keep a very good photo gallery. Not sure how long they keep the articles up for but it's usually updated the night before during the season so you can read Caro's garbage before you get the morning paper.

AFL site used to be a goldmine if you were looking for something now it has nothing of value up there. Some of the things they had were great...extensive player profiles and photo galleries and articles, now they don't even have half of that!

heck it thats why i keep me own scrapbooks off all the important things going on in the footy world!

It's the double negative at the end.

What you're saying is that people should support the people supporting the people who are supporting the club.







I think.

Nope, adding the rookies names, with no data, doesn’t quite make it “updated”.

Not unless I failed to hear that we re-drafted Abraham, Lange, Foott, Tregenza, and McLaren. 2002 stats are up, but bio’s are still a year out of date.

Yeah, yeah... why can’t I just support our club? I am… “gentle nudges” are a form of support, right?! ;)
 
One of the guys told me that he's already filled in the questionnaire (honest answers too, for a change).

Or maybe they're just waiting on the 2003 player photos until they finalise it all?
