Best Sporting Websites

1. Cricinfo.

Still the big daddy with an amazing blend of live scoring, stats, and analysis. However, Page 2 is incredibly unfunny (thanks, ESPN) and it can be a little too India-centric.

2. Nationalfootballpost.com

Recently discovered this. The BEST technical sports website, bar none. Columns breaking down plays, a column by a sports agent talking about the ins and outs of agenting, and columns on scouting. Even if you don't like football, you can appreciate the quality here.

3. ESPN.go.com

Covers an amazing range of sports.

What's interesting is that the rugby websites suck. There is no website where I can search for All Black results 1995-1997 or look at lineups in 1986. There is no analysis, and even the game reports are shallow and crappy.

Add your own and opinions.

nrl.com is pretty damn good. Especially the recent addition of all the highlights videos that you can tailor yourself.

www.twoplustwo.com

www.zonalmarking.net

Best website there is on football tactics, also isn't Anglo-centric so provides great analysis of all the best matches and teams around Europe. The formations the TV channels put up prior to the WC opener were way off as well, whereas the likely formations posted on Zonal Marking was bang on barring a couple of personnel changes, but the positions and roles were perfect.

Awesome! Looking at stats from last night. Wales averaged 2.5m every time they ran the ball. We averaged 6.5m. hah.
