This game is historically bad. Worst AFL game on the market. The AI is always at least 3 plays ahead of you, once the AI gets the ball just give up and wait for the score. Your handballs dont go to your players but AI is always there for it. The rucks are a joke and bounndary throw-ins are laughable. For some reason BigAnt thinks that the first thing that you do once you get the ball is bounce it - try a quick kick and you are done for incorrect disposal. I love AFL and being an ex-pat was looking forward to this game. What a let down. And a pity that Steam only allows 2 hours of play before stopping refunds. This should not be for sale for anything more than $10, and I don't even think it is worth that. 1/10 and never buying a BigAnt game again.
