Point Scoring

Points are gained or deducted depending on the performances of your 22 players for each round. Up to three emergencies can replace players in your starting 22, who didn't play that specific round. If you have a 0 scoring player in a certain position and don't have an emergency selected in that position, you'll not score any points for that player. You can choose who on the reserves list you'll use as an emergency. Meanwhile the remaining five substitutes on your reserves list don't score, but can increase in value.

Points are awarded for the following achievements.
  • Kick = 3 Points
  • Handball = 2 Points
  • Mark = 3 Points
  • Tackle = 4 Points
  • Free Kick For = 1 Point
  • Free Kick Against = -3 Points
  • Hitout = 1 Point
  • Goal = 6 Points
  • Behind = 1 Point
