A couple of random minor things...
Improvement in 2020:
I like the way they've sorted & stored the videos from past rounds. Like a mini-match centre, you can click on the round & game you want and then scroll down to see all the relevant clips for that particular game: the coaches' press conferences, extended highlights of the game, 30 second clips of individual highlights, the "last 2 minutes", etc...
It's not exactly an essential feature. I doubt there's a million people wanting to dig through these clips from previous rounds. But for those who do, it's a hell of a lot easier now than in previous years when you had to click your way back through every goddamn video from every round. Trying to find a video from more than a week ago used to be a pain in the arse. So I'll give them a tick for improving this aspect.
Stats Pro:
I like some of the stats in this section which aren't freely available elsewhere. e.g. pressure acts, contested one on one's, hitouts to advantage.
They allow you to filter any team(s) you like for the previous round and for the current season. But you used to be able to click on a tab for any previous season and view your customised stats table with all players ranked on any column you wanted.. All the way back to 2005, if I recall correctly... I found this to be a useful resource. Why on earth would they take it away? Some of us like charting players' progress from year to year, or discussing a past player's season versus a current day great and comparing their stats. (e.g. Danger 2016 vs Dusty 2017)
Please bring it back, if you're reading this, AFL Webmaster.
