They've redone the website, but god is it bad. Do these people know anything about web design? It's difficult to navigate through, especially if you're not familiar with the internet and in parts it looks like a home-made website. What the hell?

    I would have said from absolutely-terrible to even worse. Painfully slow to load then with so much Flash to cope with won't execute scripts. It should have been re-built from scratch as a source of information rather than something which is committed to squeezing dollars out of people.

    If you had told me this time last year that the site would be less user-friendly in 2008 than 2007, i wouldn't have believed you.

    On first inspection it looks like a 'work experience kid' designed site, but there is not a chance in hell that a 15 year old kid could design something that poor. It's a shame really that something we love is insulted like this.

    It's the AFL's own site... You would think that other leagues and codes would be secondary, but nooo.... The NRL one works better.

    Shameful.

    I get the same thing. Sometimes it finished on that, sometimes it takes a few seconds to load. Believe me, that first appearence is better then what you're subjected to when it fully loads. How embarrassing.

    I'm having the same problems! Can ANYONE tell me how I can get live scores. It was very straight forward last season. Thanks ANYONE.

    You may bypass the Flash bottleneck with the following direct link to Game Day Live.

    It's a terrible, terrible site and strangely enough it's built on an open source platform Dot Net Nuke which explains the 15 yo work experience comment earlier in this thread. Just forget about it and go to the herald sun's footy site.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?

        • Haha
