Just in time for finals season, Telstra has released the AFL Finals iPhone app. It’s not just for Telstra customers though, and it actually looks fairly swish.
The app offers live score updates and live stats for the nine finals matches this season. There’s a Brownlow leaderboard, and come November there will be Draft Tracker. But what really makes the app stand out is the VOD. You can, from within the app, watch the best goals of the week, the best marks of the week, and highlights from both halves of all the finals matches.
Video seems to be the magic ingredient in sports apps on the iPhone, and from early ratings on the app store, this one’s a winner. Hopefully it will continue on to next season…
