Rugby 25 Megathread

Still hardly any passes or offloads by the AI and ZERO tactical kicking when it would benefit the AI to do so. Just add the sliders so we can adjust frequency. They should also make a last second pass to the support runner just before getting tackled, pulling in the defense, with quick hands down the line by each supporting player until hopefully a gap opens. So not an offload in tackle, but pass just before tackle, unless they are trying to bump the defender off or take the ball up themselves. Most players would get dropped from the team if they are so selfish with ball in hand. They need to create and expose the gaps. Tactical kicking would include contestable high ball, grubber through defense (usually for the 13 or winger), cross kick for the winger if setup positionally, or kick to the opposition 22 for field possession, especially if no ground is being made on attack.

Hardly any penalties or knock-ons either. Again, add the sliders.

AI still not making any substitutions, whether injury enforced or tactically.

Competition still limited to 8 teams. Custom stadium sponsors boards still broken.

Player benches and players running out - still on the wrong side of the stadium. Should be below the broadcast camera.

Saw the ball randomly pop out on the other side of the ruck, I take it this is turnover without the pushover. Add commentary to say “its a turnover” or something so we know, because I almost missed it.
