“People can say what they like. There is only one thing that matters in AFL football and that’s the scoreboard and it determines so many things. It determines coaches’ destinies, club futures and where you are on the ladder.” Denis Pagan, North Melbourne premiership coach, The Age, 5 May, 2016

“The scoreboard is the mortal enemy of our development team.” Williamstown FIDA coach Rob Klemm after his reserves team lost by 100 points to Kananook. May 2014.

Call us old-fashioned, but banners, club songs and plenty of goals – with or without giant birds flying out of multiple scoreboards – create the basic ingredients for a perfect day or night oout. – Caroline Wilson, The Age, 9 August 2014

“I didn’t like the idea of them pulling down the scoreboard because I thought that should have been heritage listed.” Bob Hill, Collingwood scoreboard attendant at Victoria Park from the late 1960s to 1999. The Age 24 May, 2014.

Scoreboards are stubborn things but they’ve been around a long time. Stats are always playing catch up.

– Dennis Cometti, The West Australian, 5 July 2013
