Lane Cove Rugby Documentary (4 min PREVIEW)

Scenes from "A Jolly Good Story All The Same", a history of the Lane Cove Rugby Club by Theo Clark Media. Includes foreword by Gordon Bray and reflections from Wallabies Ken Yanz and Saxon White and Rugby League legend Greg Florimo. This is a 4 min 49 sec preview version of a 120 minute feature.

From humble beginnings, the boys of what was then a working class Sydney suburb rose to produce championship winning sides, along the way collecting everything from garbos to plumbers to doctors, lawyers and lost boys and forging them together as lifelong friends.

The film was a showpiece for the rich social history of Australian rugby -- from the 1953 Wallaby tour of Apartheid South Africa; to a diplomatic incident on the Queen's table at Buckingham Palace in 1958; and an examination of the down-the-pub training regime of John "Singo" Singleton's famous 1977 Judd Cup winning side (dubbed by Rugby League Week "The team that set rugby union back 30 years").
