Description:
Outside, the fans are cheering the high marks and the low tackles. Inside, the executives are wheeling and dealing, back slapping and back stabbing. From Bruce Beresford, the award winning Director of "Don's Party", "Breaker Morant" and "Puberty Blues", comes David Williamson's "The Club".When a struggling Aussie rules club buys a talented young football player (John Howard) for a record sum, friction immediately develops between the devoted Coach (Jack Thompson), the insecure Club President (Graham Kennedy), the over-the-hill Captain (Harold Hopkins) and the scheming committee-man (Frank Wilson).It's tough enough on the football field, but in the boardroom it's a battle ground!Set in the golden era of the VFL, when teams played for the jumper not the money, the blood rule didn't exist and "Up There Cazaly" was considered by footy fans to be the new national anthem, David Williamson's "The Club" takes you behind-the-scenes of the power struggles at an Aussie rules club stuck at the bottom of the ladder.
