Websites Worse than the AFL's

Yeah I'm with you, not a fan at all. With the fixture being updated all the time now I made the choice to rely on the AFL site instead of just typing in Google as it may not have had the absolute latest info. Well even that simple command was like pulling teeth, pull up the fixture and expect to have to scroll down for eternity because the proportions are too darn big!

Then you got the video and media section, the part that they constantly ram down your throat when you don't even want it. Well try going on there to find a video you'd heard about and want to see, enough said.  

Slightly more minimal sites are the way to go these days, no need to make the menu bar 3 times bigger than it needs to be.

Supercoach app is pretty bad. Although your right the AFL website is bad. 

Supercoach is shocking this year.  How bloody hard is it to find the leagues your in...  Not that fantasy team interface is any better.  

Problem with lots of interfaces is they start of great but "features" get added to. "improve' our experience.  Simple is best.  Nice clean designs.

Awful, although i'm pretty fickle these days. If i can't get what i want from a website in 5 seconds i hit the x button and rarely go back. 

I use footy live app for scores stats and the information powerhouse 'Demonland' for all my footy news...

Heres their website from THIRTEEN YEARS AGO!

Everything you need right here on the front page with one click.

Confusing. They say the primary reason for Google’s success where Yahoo failed was and is the simplicity of the UI. Only one thing you can do: search.

There is one?

Having said that I am an avid motoring devotee.

Some car company sites are next to impossible to navigate. I always get the feeling that the designers of some sites are  out of touch with 90% of the population, they have no idea how the average person thinks. The worst two car sites IMO are Volvo and Audi, perhaps my brain does not think well in German and Swedish.

couldn't agree more QBD - just went on to see our INS and OUTS ... they are both blank.  Thankfully, I hold an MBA, so I was able to deduce that there are no changes - does this include the emergencies?  Who knows!

BTW, the MBA was from a poorly rated joint in the remote parts of the world!!!

This is what I see when I load the homepage without scrolling or clicking anywhere...

But Hell, it ain't a bad place to be - especially when the Demons are winning

Can't think of any.

and when you go into to look for a player's bio on the various clubs sites - half of them don't have any background info, nor up to date stats!

larfable!

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
