‘The Castle’ meets ‘The Club’ in this original family drama that asks us: what are we willing to sacrifice for the great game? Doug Williams is the greatest footballer Donnybrook has ever seen. Hard as flint. Salt of the earth. Delveen, his wife, has been by his side for years, through head knock after head knock. The club wants to honour Doug with a lifetime achievement award, so the kids are all flying home to join the celebration. But the sure hands of this once great player are starting to fumble the ball.

“Gibbs’s play perfectly encapsulates the good, the bad, and the ugly of the AFL.”
