What Did You Miss?

The things you missed, the details you didn't notice and the layers beneath the surface. This will make you want to watch it again.

The lads explore how the film uses sport as a backdrop for something much bigger — breaking down themes of leadership, identity, teamwork and community.

They also look at how relationships evolve both on and off the field, and how key moments away from the game are where the biggest shifts actually happen.
