LIke the pic with the captains but still not user friendly and no free snippets of video unlike the pre-telstra website. Wait for the weekend when the match is on to see if it's faster to view things.
 
It's crap, absolutley crap, completely crap and did I mention it was crap? >:(
Now I have to work out what's where all over again. Don't those clowns understand we want a simple website, none of this hightech fancy *smile* that looks good but takes a year to work out how to use.
 
The picture with the captains is about the only good thing about the new site

it's all too fancy smancy for want of a better word, make it simple so we can find what we want
 
Crap with a capitol C.
I give up.....where is the selected team section on the main AFL site?
Where is the live game scores and stats, can't find that either.
The sites still slow into the bargain.
Afl.com, bigfooty and aflhq all have the same look about their main pages.
 
I'm pretty annoyed, not only can't I find things anymore but the idiots seem to have gotten rid of past videos and audio, and so I can't access them anymore.
Great Stuff you morons.

You have to click on Fixtures then our game then find in tiny font "Teams". This is ridiculous. Click Menu then submenu then subsubmenu. For crying out loud >:(.
 
The only good thing about it at the moment is the fact that cougs has the main story. everything is just like wat everyyone else is saying its CRAP
 
I've a paid membership to this site and have no end of trouble trying to connect to the tiger video that I've paid for and I'm on telstra ADSL!
Anyone else have this problem??
searching for media...........
Buffering.............................6%..........blah give up!!
 
Apparently the AFL site now provides a free audio link of the games. Our game will be done by 5aa :P.

Sure about that mt? despite the fact that some were able to accesss the call against the roos last night you'll find that the links are locked unless you are a subscriber.
 
Don't get me started on the AFL Website, I have not been able to move on from the fact that to see or listen to anyone you have to pay for it!!! And I think that the Richmond Website is a disgrace ever since they jumped into bed with the AFL and Telstra, it is a joke.

You are right MY. The b@stards have locked it again.

So much for promoting footy >:(.
 
Just another example of capitalism and corporatism running wild and ruining the game of football. Whilst footy would still be surburban and backward if it had not been for corporate backing and promotion, I wish those who promote the game actually did it out of a love for the game, rather than being assholes and trying to make themselves rich. But then again, how do you get rich without being an *smile* to begin with? It sort of goes with the territory. Pretty soon we are going to have to subscribe to get any information at all on footy. It's sad.

Now, now John be nice at least the AFL website provides us with live score updates.... now I just have to find where they are >:(
 
Now if your really pressed to hear the match do as i have and get out the portable radio and try the to tune into abc adelaide.I cant give you the exact frequency but its around the 625 to 630 mhz on the am dial.

Actually i've been able to pick up 5aa also even if its only intermittent.

Im getting it from Tas but would probably have less interference than say melbourne so i dont know how you'd go there .......but know harm in trying.
