Collision


It's 1975, and in the western suburbs of Melbourne, 20-year-old Joshua 'Clover' Shamrock is a goal-kicking sensation for the Bulldogs footy club. The game of Aussie rules has always come naturally to him. Then, his career comes to an early and tragic end. Shamrock's self-worth has been tied to his status as a star sportsman, and with his career over, he now finds himself ill-prepared for life after football. As the years go by, an increasingly reclusive Shamrock nears rock bottom with only his loyal partner Justine to prop him up. But even she has her limits. And when a journalist who is planning to write a feature article on the fallen hero comes snooping, bearing dark secrets from Shamrock's past, the former star must face the toughest opponent of all-himself. In doing so, he finds a strength he never knew he had and a craft that could finally help him rebuild his life.
