Adds are not good !!!

### 3/5 — Where’s NRLW?

*2026-08-01, version 12.9.32*

Great app for up to date results, but where is the NRLW?

### 2/5 — Screw NRLW I guess.

*2026-07-30, version 12.9.32*

No more live scores for the women. Had to install the official nrl app.

### 4/5 — where is the NRLW gone?

*2026-07-26, version 12.9.32*

being useing app for years now, is a great app although the introduction of ads is a bummer, done an update a week ago and now the. RLW has gone, So now cant follow the comp,, can you sort this please

### 3/5 — Dislike

*2026-07-26, version 12.9.32*

I’m bit disappointed what happened to woman’s rugby league? I like the scores of that bit disappointed.

### 3/5 — I enjoy the app

*2026-07-12, version 12.9.31*

Too many ads lately are wrecking a good app unfortunately

### 3/5 — Thank you

*2026-07-11, version 12.9.31*

Too much infiltration on match ups and line up. News stories is what we want to read

### 4/5 — Was 5 stars now 4

*2026-06-27, version 12.9.31*

This app used to be perfect. But now ads are incredibly annoying and intrusive. I don’t mind of an app uses adds but please add a 1 time payment option to remove ads for something like $2-3 and I would do it in a heart beat as the app is that good and I think a lot of people would do the same. Hope the developer sees this review and considers a payment option to remove ads.

### 2/5 — Beware of the ads

*2026-06-27, version 12.9.31*

Twice i have had an advertisement (which i accidentally clicked because of where it pops up in proximity to the menu at bottom) take me to a malware infected site... picked up by my security software..... The ads dont seem to be vetted. App itself is ok except for the occasional full screen ad which is hard to exit without exiting the app.

### 2/5 — Interruptions

*2026-06-24, version 12.9.31*

Too many pop up ads

### 1/5 — App

*2026-06-20, version 12.9.31*

Great app before but now ads have ruined it and dont even update teamlists anymore

### 1/5 — Selective gossip and little genuine news

*2026-06-17, version 12.9.31*

Poorly written articles, riddled with typos, irrelevant sporting Americanisms and often stinks of AI usage. Articles are frequently constructed out of nothing for the sake of click bait. The  app is progressively getting worse, where now it is almost entirely lacking in match reports and other genuine material that is actually relevant to the beauty of the game.

### 1/5 — Reliability ruined by adverts

*2026-06-13, version 12.9.31*

Ever since adverts were introduced the reliability of the apps has dropped. Freezes constantly.

### 1/5 — NRL news

*2026-06-12, version 12.9.31*

Where is the commentary following the game?  The news doesn’t tell you anything anymore

### 1/5 — Greed

*2026-06-12, version 12.9.31*

Gambling ads have made it unusable

### 1/5 — Why

*2026-06-11, version 12.9.31*

This app has gone down hill real fast

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Gone downhill fast

*2026-08-09, version 12.9.32*

Used to be great. Recently the NRLW is removed. And the app is now nothing but pop up ads and glitches. Time to delete.

### 1/5 — WNRL

*2026-08-01, version 12.9.32*

Why have you removed the wnrl competition from this app?

### 1/5 — Pop up adds make this a terrible experience

*2026-07-24, version 12.9.32*

Use to able to navigate easily through app. Now you get annoying pop up adds that you can click out of, or send u elsewhere. I used plenty of free apps that do the advertising thing right so it does not take away from the experience. After many years of use it is getting deleted

### 1/5 — Gone to carp

*2026-07-19, version 12.9.31*

I’ve used this app for more than 10 years. This year advertising has taken over and giltches have moved in. For most of the season team list haven’t worked properly. And the adds that pop up are relentless, This used to be the best app for NRL stats now it just gets frustrating.

### 1/5 — App is unusable and littered with trash ads since Sportsbet took it over

*2026-07-08, version 12.9.31*

What used to be a great app has been ruined by Sportsbet

### 1/5 — Hate the ads

*2026-07-06, version 12.9.31*

I understand why you want them but it’s to often I reckon

### 1/5 — Used to be good. Absolutely horrid now.

*2026-07-04, version 12.9.31*

The day the adds popped up to check the score I knew it’d be time to find a new one. Wrong start times, line ups and about 3 adds to view before you can check a score. I’m deleting this app after I post this. A shame.

### 1/5 — Needs to focus on userbility

*2026-06-27, version 12.9.31*

A tonne of incorrect or unavailable player information. That would be forgivable if not for the auto playing of random videos in each story whilst trying to read an article. How on earth is this not a feature to disable ?

### 1/5 — Scams

*2026-06-21, version 12.9.31*

The advertisers you now allow are scamming your users.  Ie. By making it seem like they have new messages.

### 1/5 — Pathetic pusher of gambling

*2026-06-20, version 12.9.31*

That seems it’s Mei. Purpose for existing.  Woeful. And then some!!

*2026-06-07, version 12.9.31*

Faatuiese J

### 5/5 — Not updating

*2026-06-06*

Tha app seems to have frozen or failed after the first 2 games this round and is stuck on waiting for the Cowboys Dolphins game to start. 
I’m  not sure what is happening but it the same thing with other people I know that use the app as well.

### 5/5 — Ads

*2026-05-16, version 12.9.31*

Can you please remove ads, every time you go to look at stats, ladder eg a ad pops up. You then have to reload again. Ads are everywhere in your newsfeed. I’m going to look for a different app.

### 5/5 — Why?

*2026-05-14, version 12.9.31*

Here’s some words so you can stop asking me to review

### 5/5 — League live
