1 year ago The API I use is http://site.api.espn.com/apis/site/v2/sports/australian-football/afl/scoreboard.
It doesn't appear to populate the statistics post-game so it doesn't look like I'll be able to display goals/behinds after the game is over.
I'll try to capture the JSON while a game is in progress but due to the time difference, it could be a while. If you can capture the JSON during a game, we'll want to see if "statistics" is populated during the game. You could post the snippet or the whole thing if you don't know what you are looking for. Once I see the JSON, I should be able to do something. I vaguely remember seeing the stats populated but not knowing enough to know which ones to display. But I could also be confusing it w/ rubgy.
As you can see, it does populate linescores and leaders info for goals and disposals, but no statistics.
There are three areas on the card that can be populated while a game is going on.
- The game bar at the bottom that can show things like goals, shots on goals, win probability, etc.
- Scolling text right above it that provides text-based updates during the game like the last play.
- The section on the scoreboard that normally shows each team's record but can show other team-specific stats during the game if it makes sense (i.e. goals/behinds)
Once we see what's available in-game, you can let me know what, if anything, makes sense to display where.

Round 1 of the AFL has started, and I'd like to check on the possibility of adding goals and behinds.
Example game page showing the typical scoreboard: https://www.espn.com/afl/game?gameId=1132809
In this game, the Suns had 9 goals (6 points each) and 7 behinds (one point each) for a total of 61. The Swans had 16 goals and 14 behinds for a total of 110.
Goals and Behinds are tracked in statistics, e.g. http://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/australian-football/leagues/afl/events/1132809/competitions/1132809/competitors/4/statistics/10?lang=en®ion=us http://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/australian-football/leagues/afl/events/1132809/competitions/1132809/competitors/10/statistics/10?lang=en®ion=us
In case it aligns with the card for other sports (I didn't see it when I did a quick scan), the score from each quarter is tracked in linescores, e.g. http://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/australian-football/leagues/afl/events/1132809/competitions/1132809/competitors/10/linescores?lang=en®ion=us http://sports.core.api.espn.com/v2/sports/australian-football/leagues/afl/events/1132809/competitions/1132809/competitors/4/linescores?lang=en®ion=us
Thank you
