This is the story of Lane Cove Rugby Football Club and a tribute to the colour and energy of the characters who built it. It's a story of mateship, grassroots rugby and growing up in Sydney.


  • "An Australian story, professionally produced" - JIM DAVIS, Rugby News.
  • "A fantastic DVD" - HOLDINGS BITS, NSW Suburban Rugby Union newsletter.
  • "Thank you... The love of sport draws people together in a wondrous way". - Dame MARIE BASHIR Governor of NSW.


This feature length documentary records how a club without a clubhouse in a then working class riverside suburb rose from humble beginnings to become a dominant force in Sydney sub-districts rugby, all while inspiring a bond of friendship that has only grown stronger with age.


Through archival material and new interviews with a range of Lane Cove pioneers, stars and stalwarts including Wallabies Ken Yanz and Saxon White, as well as Kangaroo Greg Florimo, this film explores the secrets of Lane Cove's rugby success - both on the field, and in the friendships it has fostered.
