AbstractHistoryArchive Description
The captain of rugby-union team the Dirty Reds grapples with defeat as his son watches on. Despite new training methods from motivation camps to yoga, the club has posted ninety-seven consecutive losses. For a man supposedly in charge, does losing mean emasculation, or can there be leadership where it seems there may never be victories? What makes and unmakes a hero? How and why do ordinary men seek dignity and power through team sport?
