### 5/5 — The Greatest

*2026-05-25, version 1.0.5*

This game is the coolest. Go hawks!

### 5/5 — Incredible

*2026-05-25, version 1.0.5*

So good. Can’t believe there’s an AFL manager. Finally I can see my beloved Tiges back in the finals. Will only take 8 more years to see it in real life.

### 5/5 — The Best Footy List Build Sim around!

*2026-05-25, version 1.0.5*

I love this game - truly a game that gets lost build dynamics and salary cap management. There are still a few bugs to clean up, but overall it’s an excellent game. I’d love an update that allows further customisation (of players and teams). Well done to the dev!

### 5/5 — Great Game

*2026-05-18, version 1.0.5*

I have only been playing the game for a week but it is so good especially for me a bombers fan and I can them into the finals. But I was in the preliminary finals when I had to leave the game cause I had to something important. When I tried getting back into the game the just has the load bar and won’t change. It was a really good game I hope you can fix the bug.

### 5/5 — Finally an AFL Management Game!

*2026-05-16, version 1.0.5*

Amazing to finally have a management game based around AFL. Great detail, fun to play. Thanks a bunch.

### 5/5 — Somewhere the Blues can win

*2026-05-13, version 1.0.5*

AFL management sim. Fantastic! V1.0 and it’s already extremely enjoyable. I can’t wait to see how this game develops. So good to have this sport repped

### 5/5 — Fantastic game

*2026-05-12, version 1.0.5*

Have had an awesome time playing this game, just some thoughts on additions:

- A confirmation popup before you go from free agency/trades to the draft so you can’t accidentally click through
- A tab in the my squad page and during free agency/trades that has your list size and allocations to certain positions
-Season history recording finals record
-Board expectations should be fulfilled in certain examples, ie, you finish 5th, were expected to finish 4th, if you make the prelim finals you’ve met those expectations

### 5/5 — It’s fun

*2026-05-06, version 1.0*

It an easy game to play. Lots of options. I like it. Recommend

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2026-07-30, version 1.0.11*

At first I liked this game but then when I put it on easy mode I would win then lose all the time same thing happens every season your midfield defence and fwd line rating is just random every game before every season even starts we go 12 players decline while 4 improve when you get to finals your guaranteed a loss by 100 points

### 3/5 — just needs that little more

*2026-06-16, version 1.010*

some sort of potential/scouting would be nice

### 4/5 — Great footy sim game

*2026-08-06, version 1.0.11*

I have loved playing this game so far, however have noticed a few things worth looking into 1) when you sign a player to a 1-year contract and then look at your squad and return to free agents, the person you just signed becomes available again. And sometimes you get outbid for them when you try get them again, which is annoying. Secondly, the trades between other clubs seem extremely unrealistic. There have been circumstances where a ‘star’ player (80+ ovr) gets traded for a 60ovr, meaning stacked teams somehow get more stacked. Lastly, I also noticed with trading theres an indicator/scale (0-100) and that tells you how close you are to getting the trade done, however, there are some times where it goes over 100 and still gets rejected. These are all minor  pieces of feedback and doesnt impact how much fun i have playing this game so great work!

### 4/5 — Great Game would love extra depth

*2026-07-11, version 1.010*

Such an amazing game, been waiting for ages for an IOS game like this. Would love if there was more depth in the simulation i.e. disposal stats, marks, ect. 

Would love the player of the season feature to include 3,2,1 votes. 

All and all love the game just love the idea of in-depth stats makes me excited. Looking forward to what’s ahead

### 4/5 — Good game, needs extras to keep it fresh

*2026-07-07, version 1.010*

Really good platform and gameplay. However you need to add a heap of things:

1) Draft - you need a list of what your team needs are by position displayed in the draft room. 
2) You need to have rival clubs offer you contracts to coach their team otherwise you’re a one team coach forever. 
3) Suspensions and similar would be a good addition.

### 4/5 — Very Realistic - I played as the Swans and took them to a losing Grand Final 😆

*2026-05-08, version 1.0*

One thing about the game is that you can’t ever have less than 23 players on your list, whereas in real life some teams go below the minimum until the draft. Would be 5 stars if you considered adding some sound effects!

### 4/5 — Great

*2026-05-07, version 1.0*

Fun game for team manager game fans. A bit buggy with loading screen waits but if ironed out it’s 5 stars

### 5/5 — Great concept, could be awesome

*2026-08-04, version 1.0.11*

Been waiting for something just like this for a long time! The beginnings are super strong, just needs some refining and to get a bit more in depth, but it could be absolutely awesome. Still easy to lose a few hours to it though. Can’t wait to see how it evolves

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-07-24, version 1.0.11*

Awesome!! Keep updating it and this is gonna be the coolest game ever

### 5/5 — Amazing, but Bugs

*2026-07-15*

I love this a lot play it everyday and has a Essendon fan and amazing to see my team actully make finals (In game) but with that being said there is a few bugs when you select the difficulty for some reason if I set it to easy for some reason it either sets it to hard automatically or just does not make it easy I have said it to easy and in first season I came 17th 

I guess what I’m saying is please fix this bug or make the easy model a bit easier

But still love it, Would Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Amazing Game!!

*2026-07-05, version 1.010*

This game is absolutely amazing. Super addictive and fun. No Ads at all and it just purely hours of fun. 

One this I say would make a 10/10 game a 11/10 game would be added stats like disposals for players ect. 

I highly recommend this game to anyone thinking about it.

### 5/5 — Best game

*2026-06-23, version 1.010*

IT is a great game to help feel like your coaching in real life so port can actually be good and i love the trades drafts and all sorts. I like the tactics trainings and the injuries but it sucks when your best player is injured. I like the grand finals but i lost. I like the ratings on players. Hopefully port win a grand finals but I love the Coleman medal and most mvps. I recommend it

### 5/5 — Good game but needs some improvements

*2026-06-16, version 1.010*

What a fantastic coach simulator game. Really, really fun to play however would love a few more things added into the game. Firstly seeing players disposals alongside goals kicked after games. After drafting a player being able to see the players potential overall. Adding a few more young “star” players. As the best players (80+ overall) are all usually older. Making sure after you pick a squad it actually stays how you want it (even when I click save it changes). Making Manuel changes after an injury! Playing different teams each year not just getting the same draw over and over again. Finally, being able to leave a team after one year and potentially joining another. Although it’s one of my favourite games, this is just a few ways it could improve.

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2026-06-07, version 1.010*

Great game, good fun. Make an NRL or Super Rugby one too! Would make a killing

### 5/5 — NRL version plz

*2026-06-06, version 1.010*

Pretty cool little game. Would happily pay for an NRL/Rugby League version. Good stuff

### 5/5 — Must download

*2026-06-06, version 1.010*

I have been waiting for an app like this forever! Every footy has to download this game. Should be way more popular.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-06-06, version 1.010*

This is a great game. It has many different dimensions throughout it. I was just wondering, if you could add a mode where you can actually play as your team? I love how you’ve included many important games like Dreamtime at the ‘G and Anzac Day. Being a bombers fan, I like anything that distracts me from the real season. Keep up the good work.

UP THE DONS!!!!
