    Season 3, Episode 1: Aboriginal legends of footy

    We asked Brett and Leo: Where are you from? How did your footy career begin? How did you end up in Newcastle? What Indigenous players were on the team? How does it feel to play in front of huge crowds? When did you realise you could go all the way in 1997? Was it more pressure or more fun? Did you see all of the excitement in Newcastle before the final or were you focused? How did it feel to not play in the final? What was your homecoming like?
