### 3/5 — Old interface was better

*2026-06-24, version 13.2.2*

Still like the app but the old interface was so much better. The circles around the player on filed view. Being able to easily sort by filters when looking at players. Hopefully they change it back next season

### 2/5 — Bugs Galore

*2026-06-04, version 13.2.1*

Overall a nice looking app if it worked properly. Constantly freezing and having to restart it, very frustrating app trying to make trades. Sort it out

### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2026-05-09, version 13.2.1*

The app will only work on the Telstra mobile network, or at home on wifi. When I’m on one of the other big networks no data updates. If I switch to Telstra it works. Other people in our group also have the issue but don’t have duel sim. So they cannot get an updates while out of the house. If sportsdeck comes back next year. We will be swapping back.

### 3/5 — Matchups- bye issue

*2026-05-04, version 13.1.8*

When you go to matchups it says every player is on a bye rather than the actual team they’re playing. You can only see their opponent my going to My Team.

### 4/5 — AFL fantasy

*2026-03-22, version 13.1.5*

It’s taking forever to update and it undated every day

### 1/5 — Um…

*2026-03-20, version 13.1.4*

Can we just go back to the old app?

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2026-03-17, version 13.1.3*

I’ve never in my life seen an app with so many bugs and requiring so many updates. Genuinely the worst app I’ve ever tried to use. What an utter disgrace. The developers should be embarrassed. 

I’m also amazed by the overall star rating, because nobody I know has a good experience with the app. I suspect there are bunch of fake positive reviews…

### 1/5 — Terrible as always

*2026-03-16, version 13.1.3*

Death, taxes and the afl fantasy app being terrible. Maybe one of the 5 updates inside the first week of the season will fix it?

### 1/5 — Fixing the afl fantasy websites/app in my ipad

*2026-03-16, version 13.1.3*

Hello Developer, i just want to remind you that can you fix this app because it is hard when the afl fantasy app in my iPad is a glitch so it will be easy, fix it please?

### 1/5 — This app somehow gets worse every single year

*2026-03-16, version 13.1.3*

There’s nothing better than watching footy on a Sunday and being unable to view your own or any other fantasy team for the entire day. It is truly incredible that this app manages to break more and more each year. It’s beyond a joke at this point, it simply can’t be that hard for a multi million dollar corporation to develop a working app.

### 1/5 — Very bad

*2026-03-15, version 13.1.2*

The latest version of the app is terrible. Scores don’t update. Hard to see team - scrolling initially retains enormous header. Viewing matching players against an opponent fails to sort so that matching players display side by side. The list goes on … just bad on every front.

### 1/5 — Just as bad as the AFL

*2026-03-15, version 13.1.2*

What a surprise, 1 week in and the app has crashed. Updated the app 4 times in the last 4 days. Just like the AFL, always needing to change things. 
Not like there’s been a whole year to sort this out…..

### 2/5 — It’s no SuperCoach

*2026-03-14, version 13.1.2*

How hard is it to get this app working? Just go have a look at SuperCoach for an example.

### 1/5 — My five year old child could of designed a better app

*2026-03-14, version 13.1.2*

After hearing all the hype about a brand new Fantasy platform we are  presented with this monstrosity?…
Seriously? A green thumbs up instead of a green dot? Amateur job guys

### 1/5 — New look sucks

*2026-03-14, version 13.1.2*

Hate the new look. Prefer the old look, was much easier and nicer to use and look.

### 1/5 — Changes

*2026-03-12, version 13.1.0*

Recent changes are terrible and I can’t choose field to view my team.

### 1/5 — Please please please fix auto sort players by value in your team!!!!!!!

*2026-03-12, version 13.1.0*

Apart from being just an average app at best, compared to others in the market, backed by crypto and Telstra, you would expect a high level of functionality, theres is no auto sort by value. This makes such a difference in my opinion. If you can’t get a field view or any if the other issues raised by other users, please just fix the automatic value sort in the positional line. It’s surely such a simple coding thing thats above my head. But would save me so much time every week. Please guys please I beg you 🙏

### 1/5 — Bad bad bad

*2026-03-12, version 13.1.0*

Terrible ui why am i going to round 2 auto insted of being in round one so annoying

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Freezes every time

*2026-06-23, version 13.2.2*

Doesn’t actually work. Freezes within seconds of opening when scrolling. Forced to use browser instead so what’s the point of the app?

Update: I have always kept the app up to date with the latest version. By mid-June (more than half way through the season), an update was finally released where it would no longer freeze. A couple of weeks later, the developers had the gall to respond to my review effectively saying, “Freezing? No freezing. Works fine. Must be you.” Chutzpah!

### 1/5 — Designed to trick you in to tapping ads

*2026-06-20, version 13.2.2*

The app sneakily moves buttons around so you accidentally tap on an ad instead. It’s a deliberate bait-and-switch buried in the UI. Utter bad faith

### 1/5 — Just use the website

*2026-05-17, version 13.2.1*

It’s hard to use if it doesn’t work. Non stop bugs and crashing. 

Update 17/5/26 it still constantly freezes if you try to do anything requiring you to force stop the app. Still.

### 1/5 — Stop

*2026-05-07, version 13.1.8*

Wtf have you guys done with the interface?? Its unusable, overstimulating, confusing- go back to the old UI!!!

### 1/5 — Always so many bugs and glitches

*2026-04-03, version 13.1.7*

Always so many little bugs and glitches that make it difficult to use

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-03-23, version 13.1.5*

The updated app has made it hard to enjoy the game this year

### 1/5 — App crashes constantly

*2026-03-23, version 13.1.5*

The app crashes constantly when you try to sort players by different stats. There are no photos of players on your team. The app is laggy. The app takes 20 clicks just to get to your team. Poorly designed and poorly executed. Just revert to the app from 2 years ago, good grief.

### 1/5 — Update update update

*2026-03-22, version 13.1.5*

This app requires more attention than my girlfriend……

### 1/5 — Worst App Ever

*2026-03-22, version 13.1.5*

This is the worst app and has never worked and DO NOT DOWNLOAD

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-03-21, version 13.1.5*

Useless app, how hard can it be? Why so many updates for the same bad app? Website constantly crashes and is frustratingly slow. No dramas with supercoach will definitely only be doing supercoach next year.

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-06-30, version 13.2.2*

I have recently started my fantasy team and I have no regrets what so ever. All you have to do to get started it use your budget to built and captain your team. To all that said it costs money to make a league for you and your mates you are so oblivious, it does not cost money because you don’t need to make a league for you and your mates. All you need to do is keep in touch with each other which if you are actually mates shouldn’t be a problem and tell or show, each other what your score for that week was. The app gives you all the information you need from who’s injured or not playing to every player, their team and who there versing and that their playing. Overall I would say it is by far my favourite app I have downloaded and, another plus’s it is free.

Thank you so much for creating this app whoever did.
