    Sydney Swans Web Site

    Anyone know what is wrong with the Reserves link on the Swans web site. The latest story is of last years GF win and 2006 reports.

    Two words "@@@@ing @@@@"

        It is......

        All of the AFL websites are owned, operated and maintained by those boffins over at Telstra. All the clubs sold them off to Telstra/AFL a few years back for about $1.5m each.

        The only club that kept their web site was Essendon. Guess who's web site has the most traffic through it, is most reliable and actually generates revenue for the club it represents?

              That's the "official AFL site" of the Bombers. The other one is the club's official one.

              Am pretty sure the AFL is legally bound to let Telstra run that one.

                Essendonfc.com.au is the official club site.....

                bombersfc.com.au is the Telstra site.....


                Open them both up and have a look at which one is better. I rest my case. Telstra, you are guilty, guilty, guilty..... Guilty of making a @@@@ing mess of what should be a very simple and very lucrative task.....

                One case where I will say well done to the bummers!

                  sounds like a classic case of web-envy guys ... nerds!!
                  Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
                  Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.

                    The Commonwealth Govt website is easier to navigate than the AFL Abomination!
                    That should REALLY make Telstra ashamed of themselves.

                      i have a high-speed broadband connection, and the bloody afl site STILL takes forever to download.

                      imagine if you were trying to view it via dial-up??
