NBL web site shifting from Sporting Pulse?

Sporting Pulse was originally great but has got progressively slower and burdened with ads. Associations like Dandenong ran with another mob (can't recall the name) until recently that provided real time scores and complete player stats even for junior domestic. But now they are with Sporting Pulse and the offering is lame. VJBL uses SP and gives very limited information also.

The NBL sites are all out of the same box with those annoying main images that keep changing before I have reead the headline. Content is sanitised and you certainly don't go to any of them if you need fresh information. I think the majority of NBL sites were better when each club just did it's own thing.

Fan sites like this are almost always more current and apart from the nutters, make for a better read.

Now the question is... *dun dun dunnnn* those stats on the sportingpulse site, all the former season box scores, do they stay or do they disappear (again)???

Yep thought they were crap too.

Until our YouTube account was deleted (Because, YouTube said it breached NBL copyright!!!) I would put up game highlights within 24 hours of the game finishing. So there's NO excuse for highlights not to be uploaded within that time frame. If i can hack at Windows Movie Maker & Adobe Premier & produce something, surely they can...

The NBL sites these days are pretty horrible IMO. They don't excite me or entertain me at all. Hard to navigate, layout is average, lack of info (although that's prob more to do with the teams). You have some teams that make the most out what they're given, Like the Hawks. Then you have teams that just don't really care (or looks like it), like the 36ers.

Then you have game time pictures, they should be updated during the game like Yahoo NBA, or at very least, within an hour of the game finishing. I think last season they didn't upload pics until around round 12!!
