That standard format from basketball australia is horrible - they look horrible - and are inflexible to use.
The new format supplied by Jamware with their scoring systems is much better looking.
In the end it comes down to content - good quality - updated frequently - daily at least I say - as it is for all websites.
Hard to know what is the best as you have to use them regularly - and obviously you don't regularly use all of them.
Frankston's has improved significantly since going to Jamware - and they update more regularly now.
Dandenong too look like they have moved to jamware and look much better and also seem to update more regularly - except over the xmas period.
Knox too seem to have moved to jamware - but in the last 6 months or so they have become very sparse with their content - when before that they were the leaders in content.
Frankston especially have lots of content involving their juniors - and you have to be very good to make so many news stories there :D

Cammy T would tell you Hobart chargers website is very good, which it is with up to the minute well written articles on the goings on down there. Canberra's is OK if you can get by with Gary Gunner and the woe is me attitude, however with GG overseas it tends to not be updated as often as it could be. The Trash talk forums are to be avoided however unless you like libel opportunities.

Geelong's is of course awesome, www.supercats.com.au (http://www.supercats.com.au) but then again i'm biased slightly :wink:

Yes we are still waiting for our summons to attend Geelong district court after several attempts of telling it like it is. We have no doubt Geelong will continue to use every avenue possible, behind closed doors and under BA tables to shut us down. We will of course be employ our 'woe is me' argument in defending our terrible attempt at a website to keep it open for as long as catcountry continues to read it just because we know it irritates him.

Yes, have been a bit slack on the updates of late, not that there is much to update with the Gunners at the moment...pretty much the same group, no big import announcements, no new stadiums, just the same good old 100% Aussie hard nosed hoops that you have come to expect from the Gunners. With my passion for the Beijing Bombers AFL team taking over my life, Im also currently in the process of handing the Gary reigns over to another highly qualified exponent of the trash who might actually be able to attend a game or two so you can be assured you will see plenty more Gunner trash over the course of the year, perhaps even an improvement or two. However, you can also be assured ill never be too far away to make sure CC is put in his place when need be.

Bairdy for MVP.

Ha ha Ha, no worries GG you know how I like to go to your place for a slice of humble pie every now and then. Actually, I quite like trash Talk as it gives your lot a point of focus. Should be another good year.

BTW here's the first topic for Trash talk. With the 27 game rotation this year Geelong DO NOT play the 'tute away, that means were coming to Kev town for a single header aganst the Gunners. :lol:

Checked out Ballarat's today and it's very impressive, looks-wise.

I agree with catcountry - if I want to find out stuff - Canberra site is the most reliable and updated. I think this is the key to a good web site - you know they will have new updated items usually once a day. They also update their domestic comp very quickly with results - great mix of junior rep...aussie senior and international.
