Yeah that one is very annoying and common. You just have to sim the game, which sucks coz west coast will most likely lose due to the bulldogs being rated highly and us badly on the game.

It happened to me with Essendon against West Coast twice yesterday.
Am I just going to have to sim the game? (meaning I won't get the trophy for completing a full season without simulating)

That's the only reason I don't want to sim yet. Really annoying. Means nothing if I just sim because I get no trophies.
have had this happen playing a St Kilda season against Adelaide. I even resorted to starting a new season, still happens!! Guess if I want the achievements I won't be getting it with Saints. :/

Simulate the AI games before you play your match....You'll be fine if you do that.
Same here....It may be no more than two major injuries....where they're listed in red....
Can't believe I haven't tried this, thanks man will give it a go.

It's a known bug, simulating the other games first fixes it. It's resolved in that patch which is available now on PS3 and with MS for validation for xbox
Simming the other games doesn't always fix it. In the last 2 weeks, I have played 1 and 1/2 seasons worth of games, but in actuality I have played more than double that amount because I have literally crashed that often. It is very frustrating.
But I have figured it out, and in my experiences:
Simming the other games before yours does help reduce the crashing, but not completely. And obviously this leaves you boned if you crash in the game after doing that.
What I have found is activating my sub before the start of the 4th Qtr, or at all, seems to make a crash much more likely.
I would sub Ben Hudson for Will Minson (fresh ruck, I hate ruckman rotating all over the ground) and I would crash, literally, 80% of the time. My seasons were progressing at a snail pace.
I used to think I crashed so much because I played music in the background off a USB. But it's not connected.
I have gone from crashing the sweet majority of the time, (and wanting to return the game) to absolutely never.
But yeah lets just hope we get the patch soon so all of this becomes irrelevant. I hope this helps at all.

Yeah, the simming the AI games fixes the issue where it'll crash at the end of certain matches.These matches are the ones where it is the 8th match of the round, and the following round only has 7 matches.
I've never had the sub-related crash, but others on here have mentioned it....not sure if there was a fix.

In PS3 Patched, Online, I am seeing a fair bit of getting a free kick and when it cuts to the kick taker, my player automatically handballs it to space for no reason. Definitely not me accidentally pressing a button.
Interchange stops working online after a while.... It may be for offline as well, but I've found it in online games mainly.
I use the D-Pad Interchange a fair bit, and in just about every game I play, some time into the game after making a fair few changes, my guys stop swapping to the positions that I tell them too, even after a goal/behind, when they usually swap straight away.
In one game, I ended up having two guys on the bench with near full health....and I couldn't get them back on.
I've found a possible fix to this is to make one interchange through the pause menu, then sometimes the D-Pad interchanges start working again.... but this is not always the case. Sometimes it means I can't activate my sub either....which is a killer.

There's still some problems with saving online teams.
I've noticed that if you save something to do with teams in other areas of the game (i.e season mode, footy factory etc), even if its not anything to do with the team you use online, when you go to online you'll have a reset team.
It'd be good if the game could store your online team, even if you use a different lineup in other areas of the game. (Or go to the Footy Factory for something else.)

Online, in a custom private match with a mate playing on the same team (i.e two different consoles playing against the computer).
I have 'Manual' set for my controller player switching.
I notice that at anytime during the match, if my mate has the ball, I cannot change player at all. To change player I have to wait until he gets rid of it. This kills you when you're behind the ball, and you can't switch to someone up the ground.
Also noticed that at stoppages (centre bounce, throw-ins, kick-ins etc.) I cannot see who I will be in control of, there is no marker. I also can't move them around as you can in offline mode.
The other thing I noticed is that 99% of the time, the host of the match will take the ikick-ins, hotouts....everything.... would be good if this was mixed up a bit.

Accepting an online invite while not in the online menu still wipes data. Lost a pre-season save as a result.
Also, for the love of God, can something be done about having 2 ruckmen (Fraser and Smith) in your side and for some reason your CHB gets put in the ruck (Bock). Boggles my mind!

This has only happened off-line so it's not a lag-issue, but a few times i've had the ball, fended my opponent off successfully but it gets called holding the ball (only happened since patch).
And this one happened online...i was kicking out, ran along the boundary line, sucked in an opposition player to loop the handball over to my player, it got blocked and stolen by the opposition player who in turn, ran out of bounds and it got called a kick in not being touched before the boundary line.

had one last night playing online.
Other team shoots for goal, I spoiled on the line to put it through for a point.. I thought it may have actually been a goal.
Instead the game goes straight to a throw in.. weird.

Yeah I had a similar situation online; I ran in to an open goal, waited as long as I could, and booted the goal through.
At the very least, I rushed it over the line, though I'm 80% confident it was a goal.
Alas, somehow it's called a throw in on the boundary

A few to report after recent games of strangeness. All on the PS3 and in online games.
-Ball was in general play deep in my defensive 50. I got the ball and kicked it long towards the boundary, and had it roll out just outside the 50 arc. Got pinged for it going out of bounds without being touched from a kick in. Can't remember specifically, but it's possible the kick came from within the goal square, so perhaps it saw it is a kick out even though it was in general play.
-Think I've heard of this one before, but just in case... Was in the last quarter of an online game which up to that point had been without lag or any other issues. Kicked a goal and the ball was brought back to the centre and left on the ground rather than being bounces. Happen 4 times after each goal kicked, before finally the game crashed after the last goal was kicked, with the screen frozen. Was able to exit the game.
-Being tackled after taking a mark and being called to play on afterwards, as described earlier in this thread, still occurs.

I'd like to report a bug on the BigFooty forums.... That bloody Virgin Mobile banner at the top means I can't click on the top four threads in this forum...
May be an issue with flash.... but it covers down to where the banner expands to if you hover over it. Mods.....please fix.

When kicking for goal with Leigh Brown, he kicks with his left foot...

Just wanted to mention that has been happening with increasing frequency lately; have had it happen four times in the past three nights or ~ten games, after only rarely seeing it previously. Also worth pointing out that it doesn't have to be a goal that eventually causes the crash; any fade to black seems to do the trick. One of the times it happened I was chipping the ball around in the last quarter to avoid scoring and crashing the game, but the ball went out of bounds, at which point the crash happened.
When the crash occurs, the screen seems to either:
-Fade to black and stay that way, or
-Begin to flicker and show two images on top of each other (for want of a better way to describe it); the goal umpire signalling the score, and the usual playing view.
It just stays like this until the other person quits the game entirely (pause menu is not functional), at which point it moves on to the post match screen as per normal. I remember someone else on these forums reporting the same problem at some stage.
Once again, this is all online on the PS3.
Edit: And again, one crash out of three games played. Same symptoms as above.
Edit2: Once again. Make that two crashes in five games played tonight.
