Tiana Penitani played every sport she could when she was a kid. Her family were sport obsessed. But when the family suffers an unbearable loss, she gives it all up. That is, until footy comes calling. This is a story about family, grief and healing. It's also about those times you've just got to take the ball and run with it.
