What is an AFL score worm?
A score worm charts the changing margin during a match. It helps show when one side built a lead, lost momentum or came back.
Is this a live score service?
Treat the app as an analysis tool. Check the selected match, season and data availability rather than assuming a view is live.
Where do I start?
Open Worms & Ladders, choose an available match or historical view, and begin with one question about how that game or season developed.
