Although Scott, a full-forward, had a career in the VFL which spanned over a decade, he is probably best known for his performances in the reserves. In 168 reserve games, he kicked 655 goals, only showing similar goalkicking skills in the seniors at St Kilda. He topped the Saints' goalkicking twice, with 48 goals in 1980 and 45 goals in 1982. He had started the 1980 season with Hawthorn, but during the season he was traded to St Kilda for Russell Greene.
