So I guess with your insinuation about priorities, is that a fit for purpose Media Department is not a high priority for the RFL and or SLE (either that runs the shambles of a site), then that would only reinforce my faith (or lack thereof) in either of those organisations to deliver the game to a wider audience. I think many more of us than not are really at our wits end with the executives running the game in the northern hemisphere. i agree. I think their priorities are with the obvious social media apps and the OurLeague app, and not the websites. Whereas naturally it should be all and more.

This is the official website - it's amateur. If you go on the 'Clubs' section, for Salford they have a picture of Saints players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudger06 Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 I've mentioned it on another thread and I'll mention it again, the player Profiles show any interested but new punters what a tin pot organisation we have. Not hard to get up to date photos for all players, not hard to link to players Twitter at the bottom where all the social media links say 'player not on social' (when the vast majority are!) These links are crucial, traffic should flow both ways. Jeez you could run it adequately with a part timer running a small team of volunteers.

With only a fortnight to go, they have half updated the squad profiles. So Wire have two number 7's, Widdopp and the new lads have no photos, and it's all a bit of a mess really. I'd rather they have a banner saying 'coming soon' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smudger06 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Konrad Hurrel, if you go to his profile is the only one I've found that is done properly, there's a photo, he's got Leeds team wear on, it's got his Twitter handle and displays his feed at the bottom, only another 300 to do before the season starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave T Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 So, was interested in the stats for last night's game. It gets worse. Wigan have 6 players without a photo, Wire have only 16 players - Matty Ashton left out of the list. You can't sort by each category, and there are no team level stats. They have done some really good stuff with the recent new content on TV, but since taking over this from the RFL they have pretty much ballsed it up.

Ridiculously amateur. I think they are Sky's pics versus the superleague ones, as these have some of them in poses. But, there is no excuse for not having all of the squads completed by the start of the season. A quick check of 5 or 6 clubs though does suggest that it is only Wigan, so maybe they didn't send all of their players on the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Tonks Sidestep Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Just for a bit of balance, the RFL website is putting squad lists under the heading '19 Man Squad'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do find it funny how much stick the BBC get for not getting certain things right.. But when you see our own governing body do things like this, you don't really have to wonder.
