loaded without a problem for me. I prefer the layout, it's much cleaner than the old one which was just too busy.

    Unless mine has not loaded correctly there is no "my team " section.

    Do not like the new one.

    It will not get as much use by me.

    Might as well go straight to the MFC site.

    Loaded much faster for me than the old one. I use firefox, what about you guys?

    Anyway it's different, but really not improvement. Just change for the sake of it.

    The major problem I have with the AFL website is too much clutter (which I don't think has changed) and rubbish video - that I'm scared to even try.

    Yes, it's all the Bipond stuff. Think they're locked in to them for one more year.

    As I said on BigFooty, the AFL needs to pull its head out of its arse and realise (for once) that it's not always about money. From a fan perspective, the official website has been and still is BigPond-heavy, and that's it's biggest downfall; the agenda of the website is more in part to promote BigPond's online media than it is football content. It's a terrible website and I NEVER visit it. I use FoxSports and a few smaller sites for live scores and opinion pieces and updates.

    Also, when are we getting live domestic games online? Does the AFL think it's 2003 still?

    Check out NBA.com to see how a website should be done. Accessible, easy on the eyes, and takes full advantage of social networks and editorial content.

    Not good at all.

    I'm all for a new "snazzy" GUI (graphical user interface), but gee whizzo... where's the functionality??? The performance???It's horrendous in its load times and it's all over the place!!!

    Needs fixing.

    I reckon the Demons one would look good in that layout with some changes, maybe one like the suns one?

    Cleaner is better works for me, but couldn't they have made the club logos a little larger at the top? Our wonderful emblem looks like crap when it's shrunk so much

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
