Playing Time
In order to meet the requirements of the television broadcasters, the AFL adjusted the playing time allocated to each of a match's four quarters for this season. Playing time was reduced from 25 minutes to 20 minutes, however some additional stoppages attracted "time-on" allocations; the total reduction of playing time was approximately 10%.

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or time:
“I’ve given parties that have made Indian rajahs green with envy. I’ve had prima donnas break $10,000 engagements to come to my smallest dinners. When you were still playing button back in Ohio, I entertained on a cruising trip that was so much fun that I had to sink my yacht to make my guests go home.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“When I go into a museum and see the mummies wrapped in their linen bandages, I see that the lives of men began to need reform as long ago as when they walked the earth. I come out into the streets, and meet men who declare that the time is near at hand for the redemption of the race. But as men lived in Thebes, so do they live in Dunstable today.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
