I've been quite disappointed by the media produced by the club in the off season.

A few years ago when things on social media really got going, Rhinos were at the forefront of the sport in terms of production.

Now the media content seems to be players going for generic/boring interviews with the YEP, or 2 minute interviews with Phil Daly.

Some of the behind the scenes stuff was great early in pre-season, but it was inconsistent and only a few days of training.

I'd love to see the sport embrace a model more similar to the UFC embedded videos on youtube. Vlogs are the way to connecting with a younger audience, rather than naff interviews. I also enjoyed the preparing panthers stuff on youtube, produced by penrith.

I don't know if this is just me, or do others feel the same way?

I assume there's an element of minimising contact in the bubble. Hence minimal access to the players and training.

There will be filming restrictions and also don't forget I would imagine some if not all if the marketing team will be on Furlough

Good point!

I do think over the last couple of years though, including pre-covid, things have gotten a bit stale.

The interviews are always so awkward and staged its untrue.

Very wooden.

Yes, a lot of the content is very bland

Let's hope they improve the content once the lockdown/Coronavirus is over.

It's diabolical at the moment and has been for a few years. Basic wooden cliche interviews with players.

There's been one or two exciting bits of content over the last couple of years but that's it.

maybe he's too old and they need a teenager or players getting interview tips from kev

A prime example is the video interview with Zane on Twitter they've put out today.

Same boring old questions, same boring tone of voice, just all very boring.

Agreed. Very boring. Rinse and repeat.

The best content on Twitter comes from fan accounts such as Lot 17a and Leeds Rhinos Newsroom

It's about time Oxen brought out a new kit, I haven't seen a launch for about a week now - lol

Richard Agar’s coat looks like some cheap rip off stuff you’d see on a market stall.
The supposed Leeds Rhinos logo is just Leeds United proposed fist pump badge material

Really disappointed with Oxen, sale after sale peddling new ranges of cheap tat.

Remember when people on here thought Adidas or Nike might take it on??? Oh the hilariousness of it all lol

When was the last time we had one of them in the league?

Wigan had Adidas in the early 2000s didn't they? Have Nike ever sponsored a SL side?

I saw Wigan had Nike in 1998.

Widnes had Adidas back in the late 70’s, early 80’s but i guess the brand has moved on a bit since.

I’d like to see Umbro make a comeback to RL, their current crop of football shirts they are making are great, just the right balance of modern/traditional and the iff field stuff is great too.

One of my biggest gripes with modern RL kits is the amount of sponsors, it’s getting silly and IMO actually detrimental to the sponsors as they all just merge into a mess and don’t stand out.

Id like to see a maximum of 3 sponsors per kit but i do understand clubs need the revenue.

On the subject of club media do the videos embedded in the club's website work for other people? I've four different devices I use regularly and they only appear on one of them, the rest of the time it's just a blank space.

Same here mate.I've been waiting for it to come onto youtube or watched the shorter versions via the club twitter.I'm a tech retard so wondered if it was just me.My work laptop is ok but a no go on my phone.
