Leeds Rhinos website : Mon Jan 26, 2009 2:49 pm  

What would you do to improve the existing Rhinos website?
Are there any better RL sites the club could learn from?

Navigation.

And a general cleanup and all would be well IMHO.


....oh and getting rid of that bloody second window that boots up behind the website for 888 poker/bingo and whatever.

I know that its under review at the moment so any serious suggestions will be read and digested by Mr D.

There's a lot to do! I think our website is possibly one of the worst in SL at the mo to be honest. But as Mc_F says... it's under review.

It needs to be all dedicated to the rhinos and the cricket and union should get there own sites!

Exactly, that's why I posted this so that people could make their views known.
I think that the clour scheme makes reading some of the articles very difficult. Anybody with any visual disability must find it very hard to read at times.

Yeah. KS should do the background design

I'd like to see them updating the Academy profiles - Kallum Watkins isn't on and I don't think ever has been (Allan, Jones-Bishop and McShane are on it), Kashley Watkins isn't on, neither is Tom Bush - last year's Academy Player of the Year.

Also, a good feature I saw on the Wigan site (I think) is that it tells you whether players are fit, injured etc., for how long etc.

The Wigan site is very good. We could learn alot from that. Can't say I'm much of a fan of the new Bulls site though, I think it was better left alone.

Try and buy tickets or merchandise on-line, it’s a nightmare, also some web control programs class leedsrugby.com as a ‘gaming’ website because of the associate pop-ups and restrict access.

The site ads down the left look uneven and messy
The ‘Latest News’ link at the top of the home page is useless as all the links are available on the Home page anyway.
With a ‘slow’ browser the site can take longer to load than others because of the graphical background.

Overall it looks a little dataed.
