Can't save repeater fields in acf_form on front end

Greetings,

I am attempting to use a repeater field on the front end form and can not seem to save the values when posting.

There are no javascript errors, all other forms and field types are submitting successfully on the front end so no other stray issues, it’s only the repeater field that isn’t playing nice.

Is this field type specifically supported on the front end?

I am running ACF Pro 5.1.3.

Here is my form initialise code

acf_form(array (
  'post_id' => 'new_post',
  'new_post' => 
  array (
    'post_type' => 'Goals',
    'post_status' => 'publish',
  ),
  'fields' => 
  array (
    0 => 'field_54786b773f199',
  ),
  'submit_value' => 'Save',
));

My post parameters seem to be sending the values

_acf_form=*******
_acfchanged=1
_acfnonce=dfc99b4254
acf[field_54786b773f199]=
acf[field_54786b773f199][0][field_54786b8c3f19a]=TEST 2
acf[field_54786b773f199][0][field_54786b9e3f19b]=TEST 2
acf[field_54786b773f199][5478712cf6142][field_54786b8c3f19a]=TEST
acf[field_54786b773f199][5478712cf6142][field_54786b9e3f19b]=TEST
action=acf/validate_save_post

Have I missed anything or can I provide any more info?
