    From prison to premiership: Marlion Pickett’s ‘fairytale’ AFL comeback | Australian Story

    Not sure if anyone caught this on the ABC last Monday. I thought it was a great story and really delves into what young indigenous people go through, especially in the West where there is a very high disproportionate in jail.

    Richmond have a very good indigenous programme one we can certainly learn from.

    The video runs for 30 minutes, but well worth watching.

    FFC: Established 1883

    Premierships: AFL 1954, 2016 VFA - 1898,99,1900, 1908, 1913, 1919-20, 1923-24, VFL: 2014, 2016 . Champions of Victoria 1924. AFLW - 2018.
